The Lodi Committee on Homelessness (LCOH) meets June 11, 2026 to review May 2026 reports from eight service providers and six subcommittees. The headline figure is the 2026 Point-In-Time Count, which found unsheltered individuals in San Joaquin County fell 47% (down 1,631) while sheltered individuals rose 16% since 2024. The Lodi Access Center remains the operational hub, delivering roughly 3,400 services per month and facilitating employment for 75 clients since January 2025. Key transitions include the Salvation Army leadership change (Major Pease transferring to Alameda) and Lodi House extending its transitional-housing stay limit from two to three years effective July 1.

The Lodi Committee on Homelessness (LCOH) convenes Thursday, May 14, 2026 at 2:30 PM in the LPD Community Room to review April service-provider activity, subcommittee progress, and major capital projects, including the Lodi Access Center (targeted completion September 30, 2026) and the recently opened 40-unit Main Street transitional housing. Agenda highlights include a pet-fostering update from Major Pease, the next committee tour selection, and follow-up on four April action items. The next meeting is June 11, 2026.

The Lodi Committee on Homelessness (LCOH) meets on April 9, 2026 at 2:30 PM in the Lodi Police Department Community Room for a data-rich session including approval of March minutes, March 2026 service provider and subcommittee reports, a City Staff update, a briefing on the Temporary Pet Fostering Initiative, and a tour of the Salvation Army Stockton Adult Rehabilitation Center.

Key themes include continued growth in Lodi Access Center (LAC) throughput and cost savings, rising senior homelessness, expanded hospital-based housing supports at Adventist Health Lodi Memorial, and emerging structural concerns at Hotel Lodi, which could affect approximately 80 elderly renters if conditions worsen.

The January 2026 meeting will address critical operational updates, review service provider performance, discuss the upcoming Point-in-Time Count, and evaluate the committee's accomplishments and goals for the coming year.

The committee reviewed the minutes from the November 13, 2025 meeting, which documented several significant accomplishments and ongoing initiatives: Lodi Access Center, Hope Harbor and the Main Street Project.
