Love Your Neighbor Collaborative: A Multi-Sector Collaborative to Target Health Disparities for Vulnerable Populations

Abstract

The Love Your Neighbor Collaborative (LYNC) is a multi-sector collaborative of nonprofit community-based organizations, faith communities, educational institutions, local government, and local supportive businesses to target health disparities for the vulnerable population of individuals in homelessness, and near homelessness, throughout the city of Riverside, California.. The goal of LYNC is to reduce and prevent homelessness by building a coalition of RAOs, academic institutions, and nonprofit organizations to work collaboratively with the city of Riverside to create a stronger, more integrated collective effort resourcing those who are in homeless situations or, at risk of losing their home.
