John Marrow a second on mute, sorry. My name is John Marrow. I live at [address removed]. I'd like to thank you guys for allowing me the opportunity to address each of you and I'm very excited about the land that you acquired on Grailed Avenue for the homeless. The reason I'm excited is my business partners And I have a passion for not only helping the homeless, the transitional folks, but also the folks we can educate back into society and home ownership. We believe that issue at hand is bigger than just homeless and unsheltered. It's about education and giving people a hand up, not a handout. We're currently working with municipalities to eradicate this issue globally. And we believe this is more than just building two rapid response shelters. We believe by building a community fully equipped with a uh a community center and three-based housing that in ten years when we are done things will look very different than they

Several speakers Good morning, Commissioner. It's Marcy Esperg, representing the Pasco County Continuum of Care, co-located with the LEED agency at 5652 Pine Street in Newport Ritchie. For seventeen years, the COC has been a driving force in our community's efforts to address homelessness. The COC exists to promote community-wide commitment to making homelessness rare, brief, and non-recurring. to provide efforts for funding for nonprofit providers to quickly rehouse those experiencing homelessness while minimizing their trauma and also the impact on our community. And also to implement a housing and service system that meets the needs of those experiencing homeless in our community. I want to thank Pasco County for the important work you continue to champion in our community, including the many things you funded: homeless outreach, data management, case management, permanent supportive housing, initiatives with Pasco Hope, shelter acquisition, improvements and operations. Also, the county has included making homelessness rare and brief in their strategic goals. Thank you for investing in this community and this important issue. Today I want to introduce you to some of our nonprofit partners who are helping people experiencing homelessness here.

Several speakers from crisis to stable housing. They provide direct assistance, coordinated entry access, housing navigation and case management, emergency shelter connections, homelessness prevention, and linkage to essential community resources. As a lead agency, they play a central role in bringing providers together, outreach teams, public partners, and together creating a more effective and compassionate homeless response team. In addition, we have one community now who's dedicated to ending hunger, preventing homelessness, and empowering individuals. Their Veteran Support Center offers a safe and welcoming space where veterans can shower, have laundry, and access case management while building community. By filling gaps, removing barriers, and keeping the focus on housing stability, these agencies serve as two examples of PASCO programs providing practical, life-changing support for our homeless neighbors, moving them from crisis to housing stability. Commissioners, thank you for the work you've already done to combat homelessness. We urge you to continue to lead with evidence, compassion, and funding so that every Pasco neighbor has a safe place that they could call home. Thank you.
