How often have you cursed out a traffic light that took forever to change?

Glendale leads in the number of homeless in the West Valley. People without shelters have to endure the new obstacles of COVID-19 and record-breaking heat levels, both of which are putting increased pressure on the city of Glendale and its outreach programs.
At a city council workshop Dec. 8, Glendale Community Services Director Jean Moreno was scheduled to review grant allocation recommendations. The city receives annual Department of Housing and Urban Development and Community Planning and Development grant allocations.Â
According to the workshop agenda, âThe programs financed with HUD CPD funds are intended to expand economic opportunities by investing in affordable housing, living wage, and quality of life programs designed to alleviate the causes and condition of poverty in communities as well as promote self-sufficiency and reduce homelessness.â
