utilities, and savings.

listen to people, give them hope, and give them a better grasp of their financial
situation.
Time Commitment

● We can increase your workload as you become more comfortable with the
process and depending on the volume of incoming clients.

Mission Statement
Off the Streets - Huntington Beach is a 501(c)(3) non-profit charity that helps eligible homeless individuals and families in Orange County and Riverside County California get into permanent housing. We work with the homeless who have monthly income (job, disability, public assistance, etc.). After we determine a caller is eligible for our services we build a personalized budget with them to determine how much rent they can afford based on their income and all their expenses. Then, if they are able to find an appropriately priced rental that fits this budget, we pay the security deposit directly to the landlord to get the them placed. After they are in their new rental, we deliver the essential household goods and furniture they need to get a new start in life. Our Principles ♦ Compassion + Personal Responsibility ♦ 100% Volunteer Organization & Minimal Overhead ♦ 100% Private Funding ♦ One-Time Service ♦ Fiscal Discipline
