Annual Action Plan 2022 6 OMB Control No: 2506-0117 (exp. 09/30/2021) AP-10 Consultation - 91.100, 91.200(b), 91.215(l) 1. Introduction The FY 2020-2024 Consolidated Plan and the related FY 2022-2023 Annual Action Plan is an important document for the HOME Consortium. Built on interagency coordination, consultation, and public participation, the Con Plan focuses attention on housing and community development needs and resources available to meet these needs. Provide a concise summary of the jurisdiction’s activities to enhance coordination between public and assisted housing providers and private and governmental health, mental health and service agencies (91.215(l)). EveryOne Home is a collective impact initiative founded in 2007 to facilitate the implementation of Alameda County, California’s plan to end homelessness, known as the EveryOne Home Plan. In 2018, EveryOne Home updated that Plan now known as the Strategic Plan Update: Ending Homelessness in Alameda County. The Strategic Update recommends actions aimed at reducing homelessness by 1) preventing homelessness; 2) ensuring safer and more dignified conditions for those experiencing homelessness; and 3) increasing permanent homes. The EveryOne Home Governance Charter memorializes how stakeholders govern the collective impact initiative to end homelessness and meet the federally defined responsibilities of operating a HUD Continuum of Care as found in the Continuum of Care Program Rule at §578. In fulfillment of those agreements EveryOne Home convenes stakeholders, develops policies for the housing crisis response system, and tracks outcomes through the following committees: EveryOne Home Membership, Leadership Board, Results Based Accountability, HUD CoC Committee, HMIS Oversight Committee, System Coordination Committee, and Youth Action Board. Stakeholders include people with lived experience of homelessness, elected officials, advocacy groups, and service providers as well as county and city government administrators. In 2020, EveryOne Home, with the support of HUD technical assistance from Abt Associates convened and facilitated a community process aimed at developing a model homeless response system through the framework of racial equity. The process resulted in specific crisis and permanent housing inventory recommendations. In 2021, leadership across the Continuum of Care are working together to implement this optimal system design that will effectively address the crisis needs of people experiencing homelessness and their permanent housing needs. Community stakeholders have agreed to use the racially equitable system model to guide strategic funding decisions for existing and new federal, state, and local resources. Describe coordination with the Continuum of Care and efforts to address the needs of homeless persons (particularly chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans, and unaccompanied youth) and persons at risk of homelessness.
