National CORE, the San Diego Community Housing Corporation (SDCHC) and our partners gathered in early September to celebrate the grand opening of Greenbrier Village, Oceanside’s first 100% permanent supportive housing community.
Conveniently located less than half a mile away from the Crouch Street Trolley Station, residents of the 60-apartment community have access to high-quality public transit that connects them to clinics, hospitals, the Oceanside Senior Center and other key services.
“Greenbrier Village is the first affordable housing development of its kind in North County – providing our highest level of services to every resident,” National CORE Vice President John Seymour said. “Our goal is to be a lifeline for the vulnerable communities of Oceanside. We want them to know that we’re here to help them stay safely housed.”
The development provides 50 studio apartments for residents who have experienced homelessness: 42 of those are for unhoused seniors and unhoused adults with disabilities, five are for unhoused veterans and three are for youths aging out of the foster care system. Nine one-bedroom apartments serve residents who were at risk of becoming homeless. One apartment is set aside for an onsite manager.
