Summary
Former Motel Reimagined as Housing for At-Risk Families and Transition-Age Youth
Formerly a 121-room motel, Calaveras Quarters is currently being repurposed into 68 one-bedroom units of affordable, permanent, and supportive housing for families and transition-age youth experiencing or at risk of homelessness. Central to the project is the provision of wraparound services, including life-skills training, self-sufficiency programming, education, employment services, and much more. HACSJ is proud to be working with partners such as Parents by Choice, Central Valley Low Income Housing Corporation, Aspirant, Lutheran Social Services of Northern California, Mary Magdalene Community Service, STAND, Children’s Home of Stockton and others to provide these services. This development marks a significant step in addressing youth homelessness and the cliff of foster youth services in California.
Calaveras Quarters is currently under development on a 2.14-acre parcel situated on March Lane in North Stockton. Construction is expected to be complete in December 2023. The property will include 11 ADA-compliant ground floor units and 7 units specially designed for residents with hearing and visual impairments. Additionally, the property will feature a community room, laundry facilities, and outdoor recreational common space.
