2:28 VIDEO: Alum Assists Homeless Students Featured

Shout out to DBHS grad CASSANDRA MARTINEZ (Class of 2011) who is the co-founder of The Searchlight Society. This news report shows her organization’s involvement in a program named IT TAKES A VILLAGE. Its goal is to provide housing support and case management for Victor Valley College students who in many cases would be considered homeless.
Martinez received her master’s degree in social work from Long Beach State. Social work runs in Martinez’s family; her mother worked in foster care.
Cassandra Martinez met co-founder Daniel Herrera when they were both Disneyland employees, while both were still in school. As cast members, they said they went out of their way to be compassionate and to make sure people had memorable experiences.
As the co-founders of the nonprofit Searchlight Society, Martinez and Herrera are spreading messages of hope and compassion to those without homes. They say it is their belief that a single action can make a difference in the community and that collective action can greatly impact the world.
The name Searchlight Society surfaced because they wanted to help form a community that illuminates and shines a light on the problems associated with experiencing homelessness, Martinez said.
“Each and every person we come into contact with deserves to have their story heard, their struggles understood, and their goals implemented,” she said.
After years of doing volunteer work in locations from Victorville to downtown Los Angeles, Searchlight Society is setting its sights on an area much closer to where they live: North Long Beach.
The couple are bringing their new Homeless Outreach Management and Engagement (HOME) unit to their neighborhood. The HOME team works out of a converted, retired Long Beach Fire Department ambulance equipped with 4G LTE and 5G capabilities and can connect individuals with partnering medical clinics to provide onsite medical consultations. The organization specializes in outreach services, case management and crisis support calls. They use a mental health approach to give individualized care to reduce the chance that people will fall back into street-level homelessness.
“Too often we come in contact with individuals who begin the first steps of getting help only to be let down due to a case manager not following through,” Herrera said. “This is absolutely detrimental and can unwind all the efforts the outreach specialists established.”
