About Us
In 2023, Retread was established by its sister organization, Green Oak Ranch Ministries (greenoakranch.org) to address the growing issues of homelessness and affordable housing in San Diego County. March 4th, 2024 marked the opening day of the Buena Creek Navigation Center, a collaborative effort between Retread Housing Services, the City of Vista and the City of Encinitas.
The Navigation Center is a low barrier, housing first opportunity designed to provide emergency shelter for our unhoused neighbors. We welcome individuals, couples and pets into our 48 bed, semi congregate Navigation Center.
Retread provides wrap around services including three meals a day, case management, housing navigation, connection to social services, life skills, classes and workshops, and so much more.
Our Mission
Our mission is to serve the unhoused with dignified care, truly loving our neighbors as ourselves. We offer transitional care and temporary housing, empowering our neighbors in need to rebuild their lives by connecting them with essential services. Together we strive to create a community where everyone has the opportunity for a fresh start and a brighter future.
We work hard to protect the privacy of our clients and their information. View the HMIS Notice of Privacy Practices.
