Safe Sleep Ventura

Safe Sleep is an effort to provide safe space for people who are sleeping in their cars in Ventura. Guests are screened by The Salvation Army and have a case worker assigned to them. It is our intention to create a friendly, welcoming experience for all. 

Action Opportunities:

  • Welcome Packets
  • Site Monitors

To volunteer for these Action Opportunities contact the Lift Up Your Voice Coordinator

History

  • May 2009 - the City of Ventura approved and funded a pilot sleeping in cars program known as Safe Sleep Ventura. 
  • October 2009 - Ventura City Council approved The Salvation Army as the lead agency for the pilot program. Agreements between The Salvation Army and lot owners were established, rules developed and case management staff hired.
  • March 2010 - Safe Sleep begins

Applicants

Please schedule an appointment by calling The Salvation Army at 805-648-5032.
