In FY 2011 -2012, BFWC staff provided referrals for health care services and held support groups that addressed various topics such as domestic violence, parenting skills, barriers to housing, and basic life skills.

Alameda County's Everyone Home Housing Outcomes define permanent housing as housing owned by the client, a house or apartment rent by the client, permanent supportive housing, a rented room, or staying with family and friends permanently. Ongoing preservation and monitoring of 613 below- market rate rental units is also an anti- poverty strategy because the City maintains HUD rent limits for extremely low -, very low -, low -, and moderate - income people and for special populations like seniors and the disabled. DSFRC continues to help place prospective and income - qualified tenants into available BMR rental units and provide affordable housing search assistance to prevent homelessness. The City continued to seek opportunities to work with non - profit and for - profit developers to build affordable rental and ownership housing and to find affordable housing opportunities. As previously mentioned the City continued to work and meet regularly with BRIDGE Housing Corporation towards beginning the construction of the 200 -unit affordable housing project Cornerstone at San Leandro Crossings. City staff also assisted non - profit affordable housing developer Eden Housing with assuming ownership of the 46 -unit Surf Apartments; thus, helping to preserve the affordability restrictions of this affordable housing property.
