Unhoused in Pacifica (UP) Task Force - Now Accepting Applications!

““Homelessness is not a “Pacifica Only” issue. Both the state and our county are looking for creative solutions for this complex issue, making this task force both relevant and timely.” ”

— Anita Rees, PRC Executive Director

The recruitment for those interested in serving on the UP Task Force is now open! Pacifica Resource Center Executive Director, Anita Rees, and City of Pacifica City Manager, Kevin Woodhouse have worked collaboratively on the formation process for this important community task force.

The application can be downloaded here or linked to and completed electronically here.

The deadline for applications is Friday, June 14, after which top candidates will be interviewed by Friday, June 28.

A more detailed informational report about the formation process is available at: https://bit.ly/2QljzTb.

The need for focused work of a dedicated task force has grown out of an increase in recent years and months of the unhoused population in Pacifica and a proliferation of the unhoused living in over-sized vehicles, such as motor homes.

Recognizing the magnitude of this challenge and the City’s resource limitations, the Pacifica City Council identified the need for a Task Force of diverse stakeholders, representing the full spectrum of viewpoints about this topic, to volunteer their time and energy to research and define the unhoused and over-sized vehicle challenges in Pacifica and assess potential solutions.

If you, or someone you know, is interested in assisting with this critical task force work, please apply to be considered.
