 City of San Leandro Annual Action Plan <br />2013 <br />19 <br />OMB Control No: 2506‐0117 (exp. 07/31/2015)  <br />the period of time homeless and reducing the recidivism rates for homeless people. An <br />annual Outcomes Report is issued every spring tracking the progress of projects <br />towards locally and nationally established goals. HCD and EveryOne Home collaborate <br />with the local veteran’s administration to streamline the referral and assessment <br />process for chronically homeless veterans to access VASH vouchers. Funds from the <br />SSVF program will assist with move-in costs for these vets in the coming year. Veteran <br />families will also be rehoused with SSVF funds that will cover not only move-in costs but <br />short term subsidies and supportive services. The SSVF program in Alameda County is <br />a collaboration of four agencies. Abode Housing is the lead and partners with <br />Operation Dignity, which does veteran specific services and street outreach, Building <br />Futures, which services women and children and addresses issue of family, and <br />Lifelong Medical which does much of the housing stabilization case management. <br /> <br />HCD, in partnership with EveryOne Home and Alameda County Social Services Agency <br />implemented a rapid rehousing program for homeless families using Title IV Foster <br />Care Waiver Funds. Families will be diverted from or rapidly rehoused from emergency <br />shelters throughout the county using these dollars for transition in place rent subsidies <br />.In the 2011 McKinney NOFA Alameda County was awarded 46 housing vouchers for <br />chronically homeless individuals with frequent law enforcement encounters. These <br />vouchers are distributed through five cities in Alameda County. Implementation will <br />occur over the next twelve (12) months. <br /> <br />Helping low-income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, <br />especially extremely low-income individuals and families and those who are: <br />being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as <br />health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, <br />and corrections programs and institutions); or, receiving assistance from public <br />or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, <br />education, or youth needs <br />HCD, in partnership with EveryOne Home and the Alameda County Probation <br />department, implemented a rapid rehousing program for homeless individuals (and their <br />families when appropriate) re-entering the County from State Prisons due to <br />realignment of prison population from State to Counties in California. Participants will <br />be rapidly rehoused (and provided shelter if needed in the interim) using local <br />realignment dollars for transition in place rent subsidies. <br /> <br />The THP+ program provides transitional housing for youth aging out of foster care. In <br />addition, the Social Services Agency in the County, in collaboration with local providers, <br />is development an “Emancipation Village” with housing and services for emancipating <br />foster youth. While the Village is located in Oakland, it will serve youth coming from the <br />entire County. Future ESG funding will provide prevention activities that will likely <br />address these populations. In addition, see above for information on Foster Care <br />Waiver funds for homeless prevention and rapid re-housing. <br />
