Working jointly with the Crime Prevention Officer and Park Rangers they are making contact with homeless in the city and assisting them with getting vital documents, housing vouchers, medical assistance, shelter, etc. They continue to case manage many of the chronically homeless in the area by seeking innovative solutions to each individual’s needs. Menifee Public Safety Report - Park Rangers •Homeless Outreach The homeless outreach team had some great achievements in February. Two street exits of considerable note took place and the community has taken to social media to thank the efforts of SWAG and the rest of our Menifee outreach partners. Early in the month one of our most chronically homeless individuals in the community of Sun City accepted a shelter entry and plans to enter a six month program to aid in her transition off the streets. More recently an individual recognized by many throughout Menifee and the surrounding area was placed into supportive care and is on his way to permanent housing solution. Since sharing his story on social media SWAG has received an outpouring of support and people sharing stories of their interactions and observations with him over the last several years. These posts have uncovered how one member of our community fell into homelessness and the challenges he faced every day. It has taken numerous contacts and several attempts with each of these clients but through persistence and determination the outreach team is helping to meet the homelessness need in our community. •Code Enforcement Training The Community Services Department partnered again with CACEO to host the Module II course of the Certified Code Enforcement Officer Academy. The course was attended by 28 code enforcement professionals, including six City of Menifee staff. The course is one of three 40 hour modules which covers topics such as; Public Nuisance, Substandard Housing, Vehicle Abatement, Zoning and Land Use Ordinances, and Collection and Preservation of Evidence. CACEO training staff noted that using Menifee as a training location has shown to be a benefit to many surrounding communities who sent officers to attend the training from as far away as the Cities of Twentynine Palms and Carlsbad. Several City staff were able to provide professional knowledge which contributed to the very highly rated training event.
