Common Ground Santa Barbara

The Santa Barbara News-Press and Noozhawk both have articles in today's issue about a new countywide collaboration of local nonprofits, businesses, city-leaders, and faith organizations called Common Ground Santa Barbara. The purpose of Common Ground Santa Barbara is to compile a Vulnerability Index to asses the needs in our community and take steps to house the most vulnerable homeless men and women. 

It's not an easy task to compile this information and Common Ground Santa Barbara is calling on the entire community to help by volunteering to be on a survey team. 500 volunteers are needed to participate in the registry week, Feb 28-March 4th.
