Where housing and services come together
About us
Brilliant Corners provides innovative housing and housing-related services to California’s most vulnerable individuals, with an emphasis on those transitioning from, or at risk of, homelessness or institutionalization. We were founded in 2004 on the belief that all people deserve safe, affordable housing that includes the support services they need to live as independently as possible. We quickly became California’s largest housing partner in the historic shift from institutional settings to community-based housing for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD). Over the past 15 years, we have embraced the challenge of scaling innovative supportive housing for those who need it most, with an emphasis on those transitioning from, or at risk of, homelessness or institutionalization. Working at the intersection of housing and sectors such as healthcare, veterans’ services, criminal justice, and the homelessness response system, Brilliant Corners provides a variety of innovative supportive housing models that meet the unique needs of each individual we serve. Brilliant Corners’ approach is based on Housing First principles, person-centered planning, and community living in the least restrictive setting. Our staff work hand-in-hand with our clients to achieve their self-identified goals—including safe housing, financial stability, improved medical and mental health, connecting with family, community engagement and an overall improved quality of life. Simply put, Brilliant Corners staff members meet people where they are, and value and respect the whole person. Mission: To create affordable, supportive housing for vulnerable and undeserved people, including but not limited to people with intellectual and physical disabilities and those transitioning or diverted from homelessness or institutions.

Thank you to National Low Income Housing Coalition for continuing to uplift that the homelessness crisis is driven by the affordable housing crisis. Read all about it in their 2024 Out of Reach Report. This year’s report demonstrates that housing is out of reach for workers across the country and across occupations. The report provides interactive information and critical data on housing affordability for each state, and county. The report determined that California is the most expensive state to live in.

As we celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Los Angeles Flexible Housing Subsidy Pool, launched in partnership with LA County Department of Health Services Housing for Health, we'd like to give a shout out to all our amazing #PropertyProvider partners, who have made such a huge difference in the lives of the over 13,000 people housed through the program, and to our communities as a whole. Manola is one of them. She has been partnering with the LA Flex Pool since 2015, and has contributed a number of units in the Antelope Valley area of greater LA County. She credits this long standing relationship to the consistent and reliable support she gets from Brilliant Corners staff. She also believes that everyone deserves a second chance, and by giving people a place to call home, she is proud to be part of the solution to ending homelessness. If you're a #PropertyProvider ready to be part of the solution too, visit https://buff.ly/3SnTCmj to learn more about the program and contact us.

"Overall, 48% of the population of single homeless adults in California is 50 or older, and 41% of those older adults first fell into homelessness after they reached 50." Powerful editorial from the Los Angeles Times on the growing crisis of unhoused older adults. New research from UCSF Benioff Homelessness & Housing Initiative shows how a lack of affordable housing is pushing more seniors into homelessness.
