WEST SACRAMENTO —

It’s the last night for a pilot program helping the homeless in West Sacramento.

‘Bridge to Housing’ brought people off the streets for nearly four months – lodging them at the Old Town Inn and bringing services there with the goal of connecting people to permanent solutions.

It’s been a roller coaster for many.

“I just got the voucher day before yesterday. The crunch is on for getting a place.  They got two to three-year waiting lists. They’re gonna put us in another hotel until we find a house or something,” said Kurt Capozziello, one of the 70 original ‘Bridge to Housing’ clients.

With West Sacramento’s ‘Bridge to Housing’ disappearing this week,  the formerly homeless  Capozziello is discouraged but hoping for the best.

Off-camera, case workers who’ve served Capozziello and others here told FOX40 that landlords who’ve promised to accept some of their clients are now backing out – but they wouldn’t name names.

They are asking for help from others who accept Section 8 to offer up their open units.

Terry Hughes feels lucky to have a spot secured.

“Everything’s worked out great,” said the 59-year-old through a big smile.

He spent Thursday packing up his room at the Old Town Inn, in preparation for a move to an apartment next week.

It will be the first apartment of his own that his 14-month-old son will be able to visit.

He credits  the ‘Bridge to Housing’ process for a life make-over.

“Oh gosh…it’s got me Section 8, got my SSI…got my SSI started. I’m doing counseling on my own. I’m really using this to benefit myself,” he said.

31 of the 70 people who moved into the Old Town Inn in November have housing vouchers right now.

Ten are being moved by Yolo County Mental Health Services and eight were asked to leave during the program.

If you can help with housing for any of the remaining clients you’re asked to call the Yolo County Housing Authority.

Move out day is tomorrow, February 27, and once everyone is gone the Inn will be demolished to make way for future development.
