How CCE works with these providers

CCE is a navigation and community-building organization. We do not duplicate the work of the county's service providers — we connect neighbors to them and then stay involved through our own programs.

Every listing on these pages was verified with the provider. Phone numbers, addresses, and websites are kept current so a person in crisis is not sent to a dead end.

If the first call does not work out, call 2-1-1 San Diego. Their navigators work through housing, food, healthcare, legal aid, employment, and veteran services with you, and they know which programs have openings today.

CCE is not an emergency service. If you are in immediate danger, call 911.

Still not sure where to start?

Call 2-1-1 San Diego. It is free and confidential.

Navigators there work through housing, food, healthcare, legal aid, employment, and veteran services with you. If you are in crisis, dial 988 for immediate mental health support, 24/7.
