CENTRAL COAST
RESPITE CENTER
The Central Coast Respite Center provides those who are homeless with a bed in our facility to allow individuals time to rest, recuperate & continue with self care following their stay at a local hospital. As a guest in our respite care program, participants receive case management support & are linked to social services with the goal of improving their health & placing them into stable housing.
SERVICES OFFERED:
Our center is located in the city of Seaside, the center opened in July 2016 & is operated in partnership with the three major hospitals in Monterey County - Community Hospital (CHOMP), Natividad Medical Center (NMC), Salinas Valley Memorial Healthcare System (SVMHS), & Central California Alliance for Health (CCAH). The shelter is staffed twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, & is a nonmedical facility. Participants will work with the CCRC team to establish goals for respite center discharge. Referring hospitals as well as the CCRC team will decide how long participants will stay. Most respite stays will be from 2-6 weeks, depending on each participant's health status. Bridge Housing is available to eligible participants in need of additional housing assistance following CCRC stay.

"I am grateful to CCRC and the time that I was allowed there. If it were not for the program, I would have been out on the streets where my amputation would have gotten infected. They helped me at a time when I had no one."
