Alameda Point Collaborative

Alameda Point Collaborative is a community of more than 500 people, including over 250 children, offering its members various programs, including affordable housing, mental and physical health services and employment, in an integrated, comprehensive effort. Rather than addressing individual factors associated with homelessness, in isolation, APC builds a community that fosters support and interaction. It provides the necessary environment for residents to regain control of their lives and build stable futures. The project started with the closure and conversion of the Alameda Naval Air Station. The organization received 34 acres of land, including 239 housing units and space for a community garden, a commercial plant nursery, a health center and a community center. Alameda Point Collaborative is located in Alameda, Calif.
