His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F.

Weinstein looks like she’s on her way to a PTA meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the truth is, she may actually be typical, according to Larry Haynes, executive director of the Santa Ana-based Mercy House, which runs Bridges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The majority of homeless people in Orange County, and actually throughout California, are not chronically homeless,\" Haynes says. \"They are people who have not been homeless for more than a year.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He says the ones who are so clearly visible on the street -- the chronically homeless, many with substance abuse or mental health problems -- make up only about a third of the homeless population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most are like Weinstein, he says, homeless for the first time. At the new Bridges shelter, the emphasis is not just on providing a place to sleep, but trying to reverse homelessness, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Literally, our staff wear T-shirts [that say], 'Tell me your housing plan.' From day one, this isn’t about rest. It’s not even about getting out of the elements, although all that is true. But the first conversation is, what is your exit plan.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Weinstein just hopes to find a place to live she can afford. Orange County has one of the most expensive markets in the nation, with housing prices and rentals going for well over double the national median.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And she doesn’t earn enough, even working full time, to pay for that -- so she’s coming to grips with the idea of getting a second job. Or maybe learning some new work skills, at age 59.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I’m trying to make this better, and get us back in a house,\" Weinstein says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bridges opened in May and is already at full capacity, handling 100 people at a time, but will expand to serve twice as many people by next year.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Catholic Charities of Santa Rosa, which runs the program, lost $400,000 from its annual budget when California redistributed its Emergency Solutions Grants funds for homeless services in 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The nonprofit has kept the safe parking program going with county support and private donations, but can no longer bridge the funding gap. Starting July 17, the number of parking spots offered will be reduced from 78 to 40.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s been really hard. It’s been hard on the program participants, and it’s been hard on those of us who really care and love this program,” said Jennielynn Holmes, who directs safe parking for Catholic Charities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[audio src=\"http://www.kqed.org/.stream/anon/radio/tcr/2017/07/2017-07-14f-tcr.mp3\" Image=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/nikki-parking1920-800x449.jpg\" Title=\"Santa Rosa Charity Forced to Cut Homeless Safe Parking Program\" program=\"The California Report\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The project was launched four years ago when Sonoma County was experiencing an unprecedented cold snap, according to Holmes. The freezing temperatures hit the homeless community hard. In response, Catholic Charities partnered with the community to find sanctioned places for homeless folks to sleep in their vehicles. City ordinances outlaw people from sleeping in the vehicles on public land.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The parking spaces were donated to the program by local churches and businesses that don’t use them at night. Catholic Charities provides portable bathrooms and safety patrol in the parking lots. There’s an added bonus: Social workers know where to reach participants when housing and other opportunities become available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Holmes says she still remembers the night the program opened. A teenage girl sprinted by her on the way to the toilet. When Holmes tracked her down later, she learned it was the first time the young woman had been able to use a real bathroom all day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was just thinking this 16-year-old girl was trying to stay in school and do everything she was trying to do as a 16-year-old, but out of her vehicle with her mom and her dad,” Holmes says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The goal of the safe parking program is to offer people stability while they work toward getting back into housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you’re just trying to stay alive, you’re not going to be able to get to the place where you start thinking about how you get out of homelessness,” Holmes points out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nikki, a 24-year-old homeless woman, who does not want us to use her last name, enrolled in the program in May after run-ins with police, neighbors and a man harassing her from the bushes left her fearful of parking alone on the streets at night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was always kind of jumping at the slightest bit of noise,” Nikki says. “I just felt really unsafe and paranoid.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nikki had to leave her job at a local Whole Foods, where she’d recently been promoted to a supervisor role, because the lack of sleep and stress of being homeless had grown out of control.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nikki says the safe parking program has given her back some of the peace of mind she lost when she became homeless nearly a year ago. “This is a spot we call our home right now, and just knowing that we could come here at night without feeling like we’re bothering anybody, it’s definitely a lot less stress,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She’s been grateful to have that safe and “guaranteed” place to return to each night after her waitressing shifts. And since Nikki’s partner joined the program, she no longer has to sleep in her car alone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In recent years, safe parking programs started by other nonprofits have emerged across the state in cities like Santa Barbara, San Diego and, more recently, Los Angeles. Because participants typically are required to move their cars during the day, there’s less fear from communities that the lots will become homeless encampments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Holmes says that initially some Santa Rosa locals voiced concerns about people like Nikki parking in lots across the city. But after about three months, according to Holmes, many of these fears were put to rest. “They saw that it wasn’t the big concern or misconception that they had in their mind.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recently Holmes has been contacted by nonprofits in Santa Clara and Marin counties that are thinking about starting their own safe parking programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Of all the programs I run, this has probably been the one I’ve gotten the most outside questions about,” Holmes says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since 2011, Sonoma County has seen a reduction of more than 35 percent reduction in homelessness. Catholic Charities worries that cutting back programs like safe parking will undo some of this progress. Anticipated reductions to federal funding for homeless services has Holmes worried that they are facing yet another round of budget cuts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She says it’s time for communities to band together at the local level to support programs that offer vital help to the state’s homeless population, which numbers close to 120,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, Catholic Charities is scrambling to find other parking spaces or shelter beds for people like Nikki, who are losing their spots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nikki hopes that she’ll be able to continue being part of the program. “But beggars can’t be choosers,” she says. “We’ll take what’s offered, and they’re really working hard for us getting into a shelter, which I appreciate.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

Martinez, who is running the Whole Person Care pilot in San Francisco. “There’s a small number of homeless folks who are not only very poor, they’re very sick, either from living on the streets for so long or maybe their illness precipitated their homelessness.”\u003cbr>\n[contextly_sidebar id=”OJIO66ohKoFH8HlklOnc7mRoHCaUe7dk”]\u003cbr>\nThe program could save taxpayers money by treating people early on, so they won’t end up requiring expensive emergency room care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Counties and cities are planning to use the $1.5 billion of matching funds in a variety of ways — from creating a tool to evaluate the health of residents on the street and share that data among service providers, to boosting services to help the homeless find and stay in housing, In Alameda County, the grant will bring the total supportive housing slots in the county from 2,000 to 3,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It means that the newly housed homeless like Daniel Yapo can get help from local providers such as \u003ca href=\"http://www.abodeservices.org/\">Abode Services\u003c/a> that extend beyond traditional medical care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel like they enveloped me and took care of me,” Yapo says. “They took me to a lot of activities that I might of missed when I was a child. Simple things like movies, beach, plays, creative writing classes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The latter seems to have paid dividends for Yapo, who eagerly recited a poem he wrote entitled “Careful What You Wish For” about his journey out of homelessness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[audio src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/Yapo-Poem.mp3\" Image=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/Daniel-Yapo-800x600.jpg\" Title=\"Daniel Yapo Reads ‘Careful What You Wish For’\" program=\"The California Report\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Services around supportive housing aren’t new, but the idea of paying for them with health care dollars had traditionally been rejected by the federal government. That changed when the federal Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services approved California’s waiver to create the program in 2015. Other states, including New York and Washington, are taking a similar approach with federal waivers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Homelessness is considered a social determinant. It’s not really health related,” said Sharon Rapport, associate director for California policy with the Corporation for Supportive Housing. “But it is health related in that when somebody is homeless, they are going to experience health conditions, even if they were healthy before.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rapport said that state health officials were unable to convince the Obama administration to use Medicaid dollars to actually pay the rent of homeless Medi-Cal recipients.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The federal government was really nervous about doing that,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result, participants in Whole Person Care will have to rely on a variety of categorical funding sources to pay rent, from the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development, to state sources like the Mental Health Services Act.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a doughnut,” said Dr. Kathleen Clanon, who is leading the Whole Person Care pilot in Alameda County, adding there’s a need to fill the “hole in the middle of our doughnut.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11540913\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11540913 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25439_20170515_StateCapitol_Assemblymember_DavidChiu_credit_BertJohnson-1-qut-1-1-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25439_20170515_StateCapitol_Assemblymember_DavidChiu_credit_BertJohnson-1-qut-1-1-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25439_20170515_StateCapitol_Assemblymember_DavidChiu_credit_BertJohnson-1-qut-1-1-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25439_20170515_StateCapitol_Assemblymember_DavidChiu_credit_BertJohnson-1-qut-1-1-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25439_20170515_StateCapitol_Assemblymember_DavidChiu_credit_BertJohnson-1-qut-1-1.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25439_20170515_StateCapitol_Assemblymember_DavidChiu_credit_BertJohnson-1-qut-1-1-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25439_20170515_StateCapitol_Assemblymember_DavidChiu_credit_BertJohnson-1-qut-1-1-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25439_20170515_StateCapitol_Assemblymember_DavidChiu_credit_BertJohnson-1-qut-1-1-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25439_20170515_StateCapitol_Assemblymember_DavidChiu_credit_BertJohnson-1-qut-1-1-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/RS25439_20170515_StateCapitol_Assemblymember_DavidChiu_credit_BertJohnson-1-qut-1-1-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Asm.
