RECAP of County “Meet & Greet” Community Meeting, Aug. 15th

Plan to Convert Monterey/Bernal EIH site to a Jail Diversion Program

The County of Santa Clara has offered to purchase the Bernal/Monterey Emergency Interim Housing Site (6066 Monterey Road at the intersection of Bernal) from the City of San Jose, for the purpose of refocusing it into a jail diversion facility. The County’s proposal involves replacing the homeless residents of this site with individuals from collaborative courts – adults with underlying problems that lead to criminal behavior, including mental illness, substance use disorders or both.

The community had many questions about how the program would be run at the August 15th meeting that were not able to be answered.  This new meeting on Sept. 11th is an opportunity to ask more questions and voice your opinion about the program.    

LPNA does not take a position on controversial subjects.  This information is being provided to keep our members informed about what is going on in our neighborhood and surrounding area, and to provide an opportunity for our members to express their view to the relevant parties, such as County Staff and representatives, City Staff and City Council members.

Please see FULL RECAP that was sent out on 9/3/24 for more details on the Jail Diversion Program and information on how you can weigh in on the project.
