A next step can be small and still matter. Start with the person, then choose support that fits—without assuming a forced cleanout, a diagnosis, or one pathway for everyone.

People first.Then the stuff.A Fight the Blight initiative

Start here - Fight the Blight

A first conversation, at your pace

Fight the Blight is the nonprofit front door for a first conversation and virtual peer-group information. You can ask what may fit without agreeing to a cleanout. Local services have different roles and eligibility rules; ask before sharing sensitive details or relying on a referral.

A place to start a conversation about hoarding-related needs and ask what nonprofit support or virtual peer groups may fit. Share only what feels comfortable; reaching out does not mean agreeing to a cleanout.

Role: nonprofit first-conversation and virtual peer-group front door; geography: remote—ask about Fairfield and Solano County access; cost/eligibility: confirm current group availability, access, and any fee; emergency limit: not crisis response, therapy, or emergency care

For immediate danger

For immediate danger, fire, or urgent medical need, call 911. For a Solano County behavioral-health crisis, the County currently lists its 24/7 Mobile Crisis Hotline at 707-806-0866; call 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. These are distinct pathways, not routine hoarding services.
