Hospice for the Homeless
Each year more than 100 homeless men and women die on the streets of San Diego. In 2007, Alpha Project launched Hospice for the Homeless to provide assistance to veterans, homeless and indigent people diagnosed with chronic and terminal illnesses. This program caters to those that have been told by a physician that they have 6 months or less to live. Hospice for the Homeless is operated in partnership with San Diego Hospice and Palliative Care. Alpha Project provides housing, support services and case management, and San Diego Hospice provides medical care, medications and hospice specific services.
