Since 2017, we have led the effort to permanently protect nearly 40 million people through bold research and development. Youth is the motive. Youth is leadership. Youth is YOU. 

 

 

One Change. Treat & Aid (OCTA) is a nonprofit organization whose sole purpose is to end homelessness in the state of California. We use research and data to find solutions to homelessness; we work with federal and local partners to create a solid base of policy and resources that support those solutions, and then we help communities implement them.

 

Our strength is that we are an outcome-driven organization. Starting with our name and continuing with how we choose the work we do, allocate staff time, and use our resources, we focus on one thing: ending homelessness.

This mission is what drives us. It is how we measure our impact.
