Street Health

Street outreach and engagement are critical components to respond to the homeless crisis in our community. Outreach "brings the front door" to our unsheltered residents, and engagement activities foster relationships that can allow individuals to consider coming inside and accepting services. ACHCH Street Health services seeks to address the health disparities experienced by homeless residents of Alameda County. 

Street Health teams provide access to care from multi-disciplinary teams that meets the unique needs of people experiencing homelessness through regularly scheduled outreach services offered to unsheltered people living in homeless encampments, vehicles, and RVs. Street Health teams engage people living on the streets with highly accessible, patient-centered care. They strive to build relationships that lead to long-term health through connections to primary care, social services, housing, and other resources.

Currently, Street Health teams operate through contracts with LifeLong Medical Care, Tiburcio Vasquez Health Center, and Bay Area Community Health to provide Street Health services in defined geographic regions in Oakland, Hayward, Castro Valley, and Fremont. Sites and schedules evolve based on the shifting geography of homelessness.

ACHCH Street Health teams directly provides street psychiatry and substance use recovery services to unsheltered people sleeping on the streets in the Oakland area, linking many people to the Trust Health Center.

ACHCH Street Health teams do not provide mobile crisis services. 

Crisis Services: To contact Alameda County Behavioral Health Crisis Services, please call ACCESS at (800) 491-9099.
