Marin County Health and Human Services has launched a new transitional housing program aimed at preventing long-term homelessness among young adults.

County officials said beginning this month, the TAY Bridge Project will support 20 transition age youth with trauma-informed housing and intensive case management. 

Officials said the program is being done in partnership with Catholic Charities and local organizations.

A January 2023 survey found there were more than 10,000 minors or transitional age youth in California experiencing homelessness on a single night.

The overall total of homeless youths experiencing homelessness in California annually is estimated at more than 200-thousand.
