L.A. CADA reported overdose deaths in Long Beach jumped 372% in one year and warned that federal cuts — including $40 million stripped from re-entry programs — push people back into jail and homelessness. The group suggested hub-and-spoke access points so residents don't have to trek to the Multi-Service Center.
