Major Homeless Encampment Clean-up in Venice

  • City of Los Angeles Department of Public Works sanitation workers in white hazardous materials suits, with the Clean Harbors Hazardous Waste Management team, clean-up at homeless encampments at Sunset Ave on Wednesday, January 4, 2023. LAHSA (Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority) and St. Joseph Center provided homeless outreach. The homeless individuals were transported on a bus to hotels by the Los Angeles Deportment of Transportation. Los Angeles Police Officers were onsite during the cleanup. During this cleanup, unhoused individuals camping on Third Street can volunteer to give up their tent encampment and be transported to a hotel with a voucher.
    Mayor Karen Bass and Councilwoman Traci Park today announced that the Mayor’s new Inside Safe initiative is underway in Venice. Outreach has begun to people living in encampments surrounding the A Bridge Home site at the intersection of Sunset Avenue and Pacific Avenue, and people have already accepted housing. Inside Safe is a new, citywide, proactive housing-led strategy to bring people inside from tents and encampments for good, and to prevent encampments from returning.
    “I’m proud to be locking arms with Councilwoman Park to change the way we approach homelessness in Los Angeles to bring people inside in a strategic and lasting way,” said Mayor Bass. “Councilwoman Park and I spent yesterday morning conducting outreach with encampment residents and meeting with service providers and local residents about how Inside Safe replaces quick fixes with real solutions. It’s important that the policy solutions developed are informed by the people most directly affected. Through Inside Safe, we will save lives and restore our neighborhoods.”
    "During my campaign, I pledged to pursue a comprehensive approach to working with service providers and city leaders to compassionately get encampments like those surrounding the bridge home the support they need," said Councilwoman Park. "This initiative is to show that the Government can be a place to heal. We don't just want to say it; we want to show it. Putting people in rooms without the care they need doesn't work. We need to ensure that they have adequate access to services they need including mental health, trauma, and substance use services for the unhoused."
    "This intensive housing intervention will help some of our most vulnerable unhoused neighbors get off the street for good and the support of Mayor Bass, Councilwoman Park and City and County elected leaders is vital to our success," said Dr. Va Lecia Adams Kellum of Saint Joseph Center.
    Inside Safe is assessing street homelessness across Los Angeles and proactively engages with people living in tents and encampments based on which locations are most chronic and where people are most in crisis. Inside Safe is housing based - people are offered immediate quality housing and a commitment of services and permanent housing so they can stay inside safe for good. The vast majority of people living on the street say “yes” to real offers of housing and support. Mayor Bass’ Inside Safe Executive Directive calls for the Inside Safe Action Plan to be developed by March 31, 2023.
    Inside Safe will support the following five goals:
    Reduce the loss of life on our streets
    Increase access to mental health and substance abuse treatment for those living in encampments
    Eliminate street encampments
    Promote long-term housing stability for people experiencing homelessness
    Enhance the safety and hygiene of neighborhoods for all residents, businesses, and neighbors
    This initiative will support and advance the following citywide outcomes:
    Decrease the number and size of encampments across the city
    Decrease the time of moving someone from an encampment into housing
    Increase interim and permanent housing placements
    Increase access to mental health care and substance use treatment for people experiencing homelessness
    Read the Inside Safe Executive Directive here. Inside Safe initially launched in Hollywood in partnership with Councilmember Nithya Raman at encampments near Cahuenga and the 101 freeway.
    Mayor Bass is moving Los Angeles forward with an urgent and strategic approach to addressing the homelessness crisis, which also includes her Emergency Declaration on Homelessness, activating the City’s Emergency Operations Center, and issuing an Executive Directive to dramatically accelerate and lower the cost of affordable and temporary housing.

      Street homeless live very simple and modest life. They don't need much, so they don't ask for much. It's minimalist type of life. They simply find a camping spot, and that becomes their new home. They prefer to be left alone as they are, and the only thing they really want is to be as close as possible to their fentanyl dealers. 99% of street homeless are fentanyl addicts. Large majority of them will simply die from fentanyl overdose, or drugs related violence. Very sad and heart desperate.

      @@nenkobaylov2470 o guarantee you, you could go offer these people jobs and 95% of them will decline the offer, I had a store in Hollywood. I would offer a job to them on a daily basis. They all turned me down. Day jobs. Not real hard ones either. Not shitty ones. Just clean up jobs. Last a few hours, make $50 or $100 dollars. Nope. They just wanted me to hand them money.
      In the 20 years I owned the shop, only 3 people took me up. They worked for me daily. They got off the streets. Got into an apartment. Moved on to a better job. I see them every so often? One started working in the movie industry. Did extra work for $500 a day. My jobs helped him buy good clothes, fix his teeth somewhat, have an address. He showed up in a Porsche one day at my store…it was his bosses car. He went from extra to being hired by an executive that grew fond of him. Saw him a few years ago…just himself a house.
      I had a friend named Tracey. He was a drug addict and homeless for years. I met him after he cleaned up. He would go around asking stores if they needed their paint touched up. We all hired him. He would find the few homeless that wanted to work and hire them to help him. He got approached by a homeless couple at an atm. They were obviously on drugs. They asked for money. He gave them $20 for food. Started his routine about if they ever wanted to get straight, he was available day and night. They said they did right there on the spot. He put them up in a cheap hotel, promising to come back the next day to help them as it was already 9pm.
      Some point in the early morning like 1 or 2 am, they called him. They said there were drugs in the motel and they were tempted. They needed him. He said to his wife, I will only be gone a few hours, I will move them hotels. They jumped him when he got to their room. They tied him up. He told them his PIN number and offered his wallet car keys and atm immediately. They tortured him for hours with nothing to gain. Then they dismembered him. Stuffed him in a backpack. Before they killed him, they took his license and read his home address. They never went to kill his wife, but Tracey bided believing they would. OT took all of us weeks to find what homeless encampment they hid at but we did.
      I stopped helping them after that

      Street homeless live very simple and modest life. They don't need much, so they don't ask for much. It's minimalist type of life. They simply find a camping spot, and that becomes their new home. They prefer to be left alone as they are, and the only thing they really want is to be as close as possible to their fentanyl dealers. 99% of street homeless are fentanyl addicts. Large majority of them will simply die from fentanyl overdose, or drugs related violence. Very sad and heart breaking desperate.

    These are not "homeless" they are largely street vagabonds who prefer living on th streets to taking responsibility to do the 'work' required to change their situation - because they don't won't to abide by the help organizations guidelines. Thus they choose this lifestyle.

      I work with the homeless and I pose these questions to you and any others. Find me an open bed in a psychiatric hospital that takes medi-cal and keeps them more than 72 hours. Find me a bed in a drug and alcohol treatment center that takes medi-cal. Find me not just a counselor to work with a homeless individual and then tell me how they’re going to transport themselves to therapy or sit in their tents and meet with a therapist on zoom. You don’t know so please don’t share your views. They need many things but love, support and encouragement at top on the list. Believe me I DO know.

      Find a camping spot outside of the city... in the woods... where nobody bothers you, and you bother nobody.

    The amount of junk they collect is mind blowing. And most of it is of no earthly use to anyone but they seem strangely attached to it.

    Dear god... Get those who want it into housing already!! This major cleanup that happens 2- 3 times a month is costing the city more likely 3 times more then it would to just get these people housing that they need. Something has got to give considering the millions of dollars that the city/county has been given to help this homeless situation. Where the H is the money going?
