Additional Information

I am a disabled United States Air Force Veteran. I have had the privilege to work with homeless veterans in the San Luis Obispo County Area. While employed at the Housing Authority San Luis Obispo, I worked closely with CAPSLO SSVF workers assisting veterans to obtain and maintain eligibility for housing. Because HASLO works in conjunction with all community partners in this area, I am proud to have worked with CAPSLO, VA, PSHH, THMA and other such entities, to help, not only veterans and their families, but a large array of all families who are eligible and in need of housing programs in our community. I believe it is an important team effort for all agencies to work together to respond and tackle our current housing crisis.
