"As local officials try to better understand and serve Latinos experiencing — or on the edge of — homelessness, it’s critical to understand the precarious housing situations that doubled-up renters find themselves in." Check out this article from LAist on how 'doubled up' rentals reveal an often unseen housing crisis putting Latinos at risk of being unhoused.

Where housing and services come together
About us
Brilliant Corners provides innovative housing and housing-related services to California’s most vulnerable individuals, with an emphasis on those transitioning from, or at risk of, homelessness or institutionalization. We were founded in 2004 on the belief that all people deserve safe, affordable housing that includes the support services they need to live as independently as possible. We quickly became California’s largest housing partner in the historic shift from institutional settings to community-based housing for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD). Over the past 15 years, we have embraced the challenge of scaling innovative supportive housing for those who need it most, with an emphasis on those transitioning from, or at risk of, homelessness or institutionalization. Working at the intersection of housing and sectors such as healthcare, veterans’ services, criminal justice, and the homelessness response system, Brilliant Corners provides a variety of innovative supportive housing models that meet the unique needs of each individual we serve. Brilliant Corners’ approach is based on Housing First principles, person-centered planning, and community living in the least restrictive setting. Our staff work hand-in-hand with our clients to achieve their self-identified goals—including safe housing, financial stability, improved medical and mental health, connecting with family, community engagement and an overall improved quality of life. Simply put, Brilliant Corners staff members meet people where they are, and value and respect the whole person. Mission: To create affordable, supportive housing for vulnerable and undeserved people, including but not limited to people with intellectual and physical disabilities and those transitioning or diverted from homelessness or institutions.

BC staff led two sessions at the Affordable Housing Management Association Pacific Southwest conference, both attended at max capacity! The first session, ‘Successful Coordination of Services and Property Management’ featured Housing Acquisition Manager Derek Day, and FHSP Associate Director Monica Del Real. The second session, ‘Lessons Learned in Supportive Housing,’ was expertly moderated by our Program Manager, Darrin Oliver, and featured a lived expertise panel with three of our Permanent Supportive Housing clients. We received incredible feedback for each session and were so thankful for the opportunity to share our impact. Shout out to Derek, Monica, and Darrin for delivering wonderful presentations -- and thank you to our amazing clients who shared their experiences and housing journeys to a thoughtful and engaged audience of #PropertyManagers. #AffordableHousing #SupportiveHousing #NonProfit
