We are committed to fostering a diverse, inclusive work environment prioritizing social & racial equity and inclusion.

In Fiscal Year 2024–2025, the Housing Department underwent a significant reorganization to better align with the City’s strategy of strengthening the housing continuum and addressing the needs of unhoused and unsheltered residents.

Future Direction of the Team
The Data Operations & Project Support Team is actively building capacity to meet the City’s increasing demand for high-quality data and systems support. Looking forward, the team will expand its role in integrating systems, strengthening data quality, and developing analytics and forecasting tools that inform both policy and operational decision-making. The team is also exploring opportunities to leverage artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance efficiency and expand analytical capabilities.

Team members thrive in a dynamic environment that values flexibility, agility, and collaboration.
