Opportunity Village Opens in Antioch
Contra Costa Health recently joined the City of Antioch to celebrate the grand re-opening of the Executive Inn.
Jenny Robbins, our Homeless Services Chief, spoke on behalf of CCH, highlighting H3’s work supporting Antioch through the Encampment Resolution Grant, which helps fund this important project.
The former hotel has been transformed into Opportunity Village, providing housing and on-site services for unsheltered neighbors in East County.
The Antioch CORE team has already made great progress, helping 36 people and 19 dogs move into Opportunity Village. With the Sunset Drive and DevPar Court encampment now closed, CORE is continuing to check in with people who haven’t moved in yet, making sure they stay connected to services. Everyone who moves into Opportunity Village will also be paired with a housing case manager to help them find permanent housing options.
This project shows what’s possible when we work together with compassion, collaboration and innovation to address homelessness in our county.
