Uber driver Jorge Rodriguez, 66, fell behind on his rent after a car accident. With his education degree, he got a part-time teaching job to help pay the bills, but his landlord sold the apartment and the new owner evicted him. Jorge lost his teaching job during the pandemic and lived in his car for 11 months. He applied for a housing voucher at the Veterans Affairs (VA) office and was housed two months later, thanks to the Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing (VASH) and Homeless Incentive Program (HIP) administered by the LACDA.
