The City of Eureka provides ongoing financial support to the Betty Kwan Chinn Homeless Foundation to provide food, shelter and case management services to families and individuals experiencing homelessness. Uplift Eureka and the Eureka Police Department's CSET program partner with the Betty Kwan Chinn Foundation to provide residents of Eureka who are experiencing homelessness with access to employment and housing opportunities.

​

Their philosophy of care is a strength based approach to homeless client care. They focus on individualized care and help to bridge the gap between where the client is and where they need to be to regain self-sufficiency.  They rely on 3 core beliefs for all of their homeless care:

​

• ​Every person deserves the opportunity to change their life

• Every person has an unique path

• Every person should be treated with dignity, compassion, and respect
