FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

IQ Kare Announces National Expansion to Become the Largest Recuperative Care Network in the United States

Los Angeles, CA — Industry Qualitative Kare Group (IQ Kare), a mission-driven leader in post-hospitalization care and transitional housing, has unveiled its national expansion plan, positioning the organization as the largest provider of recuperative care for unhoused individuals across the country.

With a bold commitment to operate 2,000 beds in Los Angeles County and a minimum of 500 beds in Riverside County, San Bernardino County, and each additional state where it operates, IQ Kare is addressing the systemic gap between hospital discharge and housing stability with an integrated model of Enhanced Care Management, medical respite, interim housing, and permanent housing placement.

“We are building more than just shelter beds. We are building a national infrastructure of recovery, healing, and housing equity,” said Demetric Woodard, MS, Founder and CEO of IQ Kare. “Our goal is to ensure that no individual is released from medical care without a pathway to stability.”

IQ Kare currently operates in Los Angeles, Phoenix, Las Vegas, Miami, Atlanta, and Chicago, with additional expansion planned in Houston, New York City, and Oakland. The organization has forged over 75 partnerships with hospitals, managed care organizations, and housing agencies, and serves over 2,400 individuals annually.

This expansion marks a major milestone in the national movement to integrate housing and healthcare for vulnerable populations. IQ Kare’s model is expected to serve as a blueprint for scalable, results-driven community-based care.
