In addition to the seven city task forces in Ventura County, many other groups, agencies and organizations partner to end homelessness or serve the homeless population:
HOUSE FARM WORKERS: a project of the Ventura County AFA Farm Worker Housing Task Force founded in 2004 to promote and support the development of decent, safe, sanitary and affordable housing for farm workers through community education, dialogue and advocacy.

VENTURA COUNTY BEHAVIORAL HEALTH: The Department provides a system of coordinated services to meet the mental health and substance abuse treatment needs of the Ventura County. Program services are delivered from regionally based Behavioral Health Centers for women with children, women, adolescents, youth between the ages of 18 to 25, adults and seniors. Specialized services are also provided in partnership with city and county agencies, courts, local law enforcement, schools and community based coalitions.
