PHASE ONE: FEMA TENTS

The City of San Diego owns thousands of acres ideal for hosting a network of military grade FEMA tents NOW. 

Unlike low-quality, collapsable camp tents, military grade FEMA style tents are generally tear-resistant, puncture-resistant, and stable in all weather conditions. FEMA tent frames are usually made of corrosion-resistant synthetic or alloy materials. The high-durability yet lightweight materials afford a lifespan of ten years or more.  

High-strength polymer fibers make FEMA style tents completely waterproof. The frame structure and materials are designed to withstand wind. Some FEMA relief tents feature sealed seams for added security in intense wind or rain. 

Easy to establish and easy to relocate,  these FEMA style tents afford quick installation without sacrificing durability. We can provide shelter on a large scale without a costly and time-consuming construction process. 

FEMA style tents offer reliable coverage, privacy, and comfort to support a variety of necessary functions, from housing, medical, and storage to administrative and meal service. These tents were invented to function in any and all emergency conditions.

The City of San Diego established the Safe Sleeping Program, which offers safe, legal space as an alternative to traditional congregate shelters for people experiencing homelessness.

Deepening the impact of San Diego's most trusted homelessness service providers. 

Social workers, therapists, psychologists, addiction treatment specialists, and crisis intervention counselors. 

Triage clinic for acute ailments and resident doctors to manage chronic conditions and emergency care needs.

Mobile showers, toilets, laundry facilities, and waste management until permanent plumbing lines can be installed.

Licensed daycare staff, infant support, preschool, tutoring programs, and contracted activities.

Kitchen facilities for cafeteria meal service. Sundry commissary for purchase.

Employment support, english language classes, and training for on-site positions.

Set up a busing system to offer convenient pick up from San Diego shelters and areas of high transient density, such as tent cities and notoriously occupied city blocks. 

Cooperate with law enforcement, shelter staff, and social service workers to encourage voluntary sign up from members of the homeless community. Seats are reserved on a scheduled bus departing from shelters and problematic street corners. 

Effort will be made to accommodate incoming residents with a bunk in an appropriate section of the Village best suited to their needs. 

Residents of SPV are encouraged to learn new skills and gain employment experience filling one of the many roles required to run the San Pasqual Village campus, including stocking, loading/unloading, maintenance and upkeep, meal service, and agricultural jobs. 

San Pasqual Village will offer ample secure storage space with locks and security cameras.

Unhoused parents with children and married couples will be seated and sheltered together. 

Any individuals choosing to remain on the streets are subject to enforcement of the law which allows police arrest and relocation.
