<br />Additions to Shelter Inventory
<br />One of the updates that was made to the System Model in 2021 was to temporarily add additional
<br />shelter in order to reduce existing unsheltered homelessness. This temporary surge in shelter during
<br />the first two years of the Plan while the system’s permanent housing resources are also scaled up.

<br />New Investment Needed
<br />The total cost of scaling up both the shelter and housing inventory as well as the additional resource
<br />pathways over the coming five years is $2.5 billion. This includes roughly $430 million for additional
<br />shelter, $1.68 billion for permanent housing such as dedicated affordable and permanent supportive
<br />housing, and $388 million for prevention, rapid rehousing and shallow (more limited) subsidies. It does
<br />not include the development costs for new buildings, however includes coverage operations and
<br />services, and subsidies to help people rent existing housing.
<br />Similar to their proportion of the homeless population, the investments are roughly 10% ($194 million)
<br />for inventory and resources for households with minor children, and 90% ($2.3 billion) for the
<br />inventory and resources to serve adult only households, including transition age youth.
