Oasis has been providing critical services for the most vulnerable and hardest to serve residents in permanent supportive housing for over a decade, including those who experience homelessness, and have special needs such as mental health diagnoses, PTSD, medical diagnosis, disabilities, and substance use disorders.
Resident services are voluntary and provide resources to help maintain housing stability, improve health, increase financial stability, enhance skills and/or advance their education, and find meaningful activities in their life.

Case management
Highly trained and committed staff provide individualized case management support to help residents residing in affordable and permanent supportive housing to maintain housing stability and achieve goals. This includes Intensive Case Management Services (ICMS) for those residents with a diagnosis of mental illness or other special needs. All case managers benefit from ongoing supervision and support provided by licensed clinical social workers. Supervisors are also available to provide direct clinical services to resident as necessary.
Behavioral health Services
Residents and staff are supported by a dedicated behavioral health specialist housed at Century Villages at Cabrillo to address and coordinate issues in a way to help de-escalate crisis situations, and provide a trained response so that stressful situations do not escalate into mental health crises or worse. The behavioral health specialist is available to the entire Century Villages at Cabrillo community as needed, including after regular business hours.
Financial and employment help
Staff and partners provide financial literacy training, assistance with benefits enrollment, job assistance, and more to help residents achieve financial stability.
Youth and family services
Youth and family services are designed to foster stronger parenting skills and stability among children and youth. This includes parenting classes and support, Oasis after-school programs for “Littles” in K-5th grades, and the We Are B.O.L.D teen program for youth in 6th –12th grades, intergenerational and family activities, and a fun and free Oasis summer camp.
Occupational therapy (OT)
A licensed occupational therapist works collaboratively with case managers to meet resident needs. While case management provides comprehensive services, our OT focuses on increasing functional independence whether it is promoting healthy eating and nutrition or modifying the home to decrease the risk of falls. This collaboration gives us greater insight into not only some of the challenges but also the strengths that our residents have, so that we can provide more personalized services. Our OT supervises a team of interns who provide individual and group support to residents.
Community development and engagement
Oasis organizes monthly community meetings, resident council meetings, resident activities, holiday celebrations, and youth programming. Quarterly community-wide events such as an annual back-to-school event, a health fair, and a winter holiday celebration.
Health and wellness programs
Oasis staff, partners, and interns provide robust health and wellness programming such as walking groups, cooking groups, yoga, journaling, and more. These activities promote health and wellness and encourage community building.
