What is SALUS - the Crisis Hub

Demonstrating a shared commitment to service, community, and the public good, the move also includes the acquisition of HSAC's crisis and event management platform, SALUS - The Crisis Hub, which uses geographic information systems (GIS) to manage and analyze data in order to build upon existing relationships with municipal and state governments. GIS is typically used to visualize information, such as patterns and relationships, and helps crisis managers make informed decisions and gain a more complete situational awareness before, during, and after a crisis or major event.SALUS also supports and facilitates strategies that address homelessness in Los Angeles by providing a single, common platform accessible to the mayor's office and all 16 departments in the city's Unified Homelessness Response Center.
