homelessness. Members consist of VA staff, veteran housing providers, and CoC staff. Other providers <br />and elected officials participate sporadically. The group worked a By-Name-List of homeless veterans <br />since the fall of 2015. As of May 31, 2018, the BNL stands at 341 individuals of whom 30% (102 <br />individuals) are chronically homeless. With 125 new VASH vouchers coming online in 2018 and 67 more <br />project-based subsidies under construction, the CoC expects to make significant progress toward ending <br />chronic homelessness among veterans in 2018. <br />The HOME Consortium has also expanded resources for families experiencing homelessness and seen <br />the number of homeless families drop by 42% from 462 in 2013, to 324 in 2015, and then to 270 in the <br />2017 Point-In-Time Count. One major shift that took effect during this reporting period was to convert a <br />scattered site transitional housing program that served 47 families per year to Rapid Rehousing, which <br />allows the program to step-down the rental subsidy amount gradually over time, allowing the subsidy <br />funds to be spread over more families, doubling the program’s annual capacity. Providers within the <br />Consortium have also been awarded funds to rehouse homeless families on TANF using money from the <br />State of California award to the County Social Service Agency. ESG funds and County general funds are <br />also assisting families. <br /> <br /> City of San Leandro FY 2018-19 CAPER 18 <br />OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 06/30/2018) <br /> <br />
