CHAIR HORVATH RESPONDS TO LAHSA AUDIT FINDINGS WITH MOTION TO CREATE NEW COUNTY DEPARTMENT ON HOMELESSNESS

November 20, 2024

LOS ANGELES, CA — Today, Lindsey P. Horvath, Chair of the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, shares the following statement in response to the LA County Auditor-Controller’s newly released audit on the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA).

“The audit findings underscore the urgent need for greater accountability in our homeless services system. LAHSA plays an important role, but the current structure is not meeting the scale of this crisis.

That’s why I’m introducing a motion to create a new LA County department to centralize accountability and expedite the solutions and partnerships we know work. We must take bold steps to ensure our investments deliver real results for our communities and unhoused neighbors.”
