The County of San Luis Obispo and the City of San Luis Obispo, in partnership with CAPSLO, are expanding the 40 Prado safe parking program starting Monday, July 20.

The program provides homeless individuals seeking services leading to permanent housing with a safe place to park their vehicle, and gives them access to case management and essential services during the pandemic.

Participants will have access to all 40 Prado services including meals, showers, laundry, kennels, access to on-site community health centers, medical services and on-site mental health therapy.

The County first began offering general safe parking programs in March to provide homeless individuals and families with access to safe, clean spaces to park and sleep overnight.

The programs concluded at the end of June. The expanded program at CAPSLO will run through December 31, 2020.
