We celebrated the groundbreaking of our Wellness Center Campus on April 20! This facility is a key component in our strategy to reduce homelessness in Victorville, and it will be the first of its kind in SB County. Construction is expected to be complete in December and is being funded primarily through a $28 million California Homekey Grant. We’re proud to address the issues of homelessness and improve the overall quality of life for our community. Learn more about this center at vv.city/vwcc.
