Villages at Cabrillo - FWS

Century Villages at Cabrillo (CVC) is a 27 acre residential community established to break the cycle of homelessness. CVC has developed into a unique supportive housing community that provides housing on any given night to over 1,600 persons.  These include veteran and non-veteran individuals, families, youth and children who are housed within CVC’s robust continuum of supportive housing, ranging from shelter, to transitional housing, to permanent housing.  More than simply providing shelter, CVC has co-located a palette of valuable social services to help residents regain their independence.  To this end, CVC has partnered with fifteen established service providers to provide these much needed services which include: case management, life skills training, substance abuse treatment, affordable child care, a homeless education program, an employment center, a career center, a food service program, and a VA medical clinic among others. The Oasis Community Center is a drop in resource center on campus that offers daily skill-building workshops, information and referrals, and a structured After-School Program for school aged children and teens.  The Center also features an internet connected computer lab, and playcare for pre-school children so parents can attend class…all free of charge.
