Berkeley's Homeless Response Team has been evaluated for its performance from July 1, 2021, to June 30, 2024. The City Auditor's Office conducted an audit focusing on the team's data collection, policies, and public reporting. The findings emphasize that addressing homelessness in Berkeley is complex and requires collaboration. Recommendations include standardizing data collection, improving public information sharing, and enhancing reported outcomes. The audit underlines the importance of understanding the team's role in managing encampments and the need for adequate staffing to implement improvements and better address the ongoing challenges of homelessness.
Better data collection, improved transparency and stronger coordination practices are all areas of growth for Berkeley's Homeless Response Team, according to a report released by the City Auditor's Office.
The analysis recognized that combatting homelessness in Berkeley is a larger challenge no single team can take on alone, but the Homeless Response Team could strengthen its work.
