ULI Homeless to Housed Case Study: LifeMoves San Mateo Navigation Center
Short-term Transitional Housing in San Mateo, CA
San Mateo Navigation Center is a 240-unit modular, transitional shelter and provides intensive on-site support services to individuals and couples experiencing homelessness. This project is significant due to the partnership between San Mateo and LifeMoves, a nonprofit housing provider. The unique design provides a facility where every client has their own lockable room, affording a level of comfort and security not often found in community shelters.
The construction phase of the project took nine to 12 months to complete compared to the two to three years that permanent housing requires. Moving individuals into a supportive housing unit of this type, with lockable doors and on-site services, is the next step on the journey to permanent housing. The San Mateo Navigation Center integrates vital wraparound services for clients including an on-site dental clinic, nurse station, and drug-treatment facility. The co-location of supportive services within the shelter ensures easy and convenient access, removing logistical challenges and streamlining the process of receiving care.
