Henry Mauriss Calls for New, Integrated Approach

ClearTV CEO and Joshua's Collective founder urges action on long-term, human-focused solutions to California's housing crisis

Los Angeles, CA, 18th August 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, Entrepreneur and media executive Henry Mauriss is urging civic leaders, business owners, and everyday Californians to support a more comprehensive, systems-level response to homelessness. As founder of Joshua's Collective, a new initiative designed to address housing, addiction, mental health, and employment together, Mauriss says the current piecemeal approach isn't working-and it's time to rethink the model.

"You can't just build beds and hope the problem disappears," says Mauriss. "People need more than a roof. They need treatment, support, skills, and a plan forward."

Why It Matters Now

According to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, California is home to nearly 30% of the nation's homeless population, with 181,399 people experiencing homelessness in 2024 alone. In Los Angeles County, the number has risen by 9% in just the last year, despite record spending.

"We're spending billions, but the results don't reflect that," Mauriss says. "Because we're treating symptoms, not systems."

Mauriss compares the issue to poor design in business operations. "If you don't build around real use cases, your system breaks down. That's what's happening with homelessness solutions," he explains.

A Holistic Model for Sustainable Recovery

Through Joshua's Collective, Mauriss is advocating for integrated campuses that provide not just shelter, but also:

On-site mental health and addiction services

Vocational training and job placement

Transitional housing with long-term stability plans

Access to peer support and mentorship

"We're not just trying to reduce numbers," Mauriss says. "We're trying to restore lives."

This model is inspired by his own background in business, where he led scalable platforms like ClearTV and Credit America Corporation. He believes that the same focus on systems, infrastructure, and measurable outcomes should be applied to public service.

"It's not about charity-it's about precision. If you treat this like a business problem, you build a better solution," he explains.

A Call to Action for Citizens and Cities

Mauriss is not asking people to wait for legislation or billion-dollar budgets. He's encouraging local ownership and action, starting with simple steps:

Learn the root causes of homelessness in your area

Partner with local service providers to support recovery-oriented programmes

Volunteer time or donate resources to organisations addressing addiction and mental health, not just housing

Push for better city-level coordination between public and private sector leaders

Educate others on why short-term solutions fall short

"Big change doesn't start at the top. It starts with people who care, acting where they are," Mauriss says.

He also urges businesses to rethink how they engage with their communities. "Employers have a role. We can't say we care about workforce development and ignore the thousands of people who are one opportunity away from stability," he says.

Why This Isn't Just Another Project

Unlike many one-off programmes or shelter expansions, Joshua's Collective is designed to scale-with clear metrics for success, reintegration, and personal growth.

Mauriss believes that real progress happens when data and dignity work together.

"We can't solve complex problems with shallow answers. But we can solve them-if we build the right tools."
