This week, the City of Tulare hosted a groundbreaking ceremony to mark the start of construction on the Tulare Emergency Homeless Shelter. Despite less-than-ideal weather, the event was well-attended. Recognizing the need for a sustainable solution to address homelessness, the City of Tulare, in collaboration with Tulare County, is building a 20,000 sq. ft. emergency shelter designed to accommodate up to 400 unhoused individuals. Its central location at the Hillman Health Center, is strategically positioned within walking distance of essential services. Construction is expected to be completed by the end of 2025. We extend our gratitude to everyone who has contributed to making this project a reality, including our legislative partners, whose support was crucial in securing the necessary funding for the shelter’s construction.
