Solutions for Change strives to permanently solve homelessness for San Diego County families. To do so, the nonprofit catalyzed Solutions University, a leadership development residential program for homeless families that includes supportive housing, life skill training, workforce development, counseling, health services, and youth-focused programming. To help fund these services while providing training and employment opportunities, Solutions for Change operates social enterprises, including New Solutions Housing (multifamily property management and maintenance services), New Solutions Real Estate Development (housing construction), and Solutions Farms (an aquaponics farm growing sustainable produce). Since its establishment in 1999, the nonprofit has helped 850 families transition out of homelessness.
