In June 2021, Torrance City Council approved a temporary housing program for people experiencing homelessness in Torrance for a pilot period of 12 months. Please stop by and learn more about the program, 3290 Temporary Housing Village at Civic Center Drive. The Village will offer transitional housing for individuals experiencing homelessness along with wraparound services in the form of case management and housing navigation.
