Action Plan - FY1998 City of San Leandro Page 10 Emergency Shelter Program (ESP) in Hayward, the Tri-City Homeless Coalition and Shelter Against Violent Environments (SAVE) in Fremont, and the Tri-Valley Haven and Valley Health Center in Livermore. Under contract to HCD, Allied Housing (Hayward) administers the rental assistance component and BOSS (Building Opportunities for Self - Sufficiency), also in Hayward, provides job development services. As of December 1996 a total of 35 families were being assisted by the program. It is anticipated that more than 100 families will receive support over the life of the program. As a part of this grant, HCD as contracted with FESCO and Tri-Cities Homeless Coalition for the acquisition and rehabilitation of up to 12 units of transitional housing at scattered South County sites. One site has been acquired by FESCO, and negotiations are proceeding on other sites. In 1996, HCD was awarded two new grants in the McKinney NOFA competition and is now preparing final submittals to HUD. Twelve units of transitional housing on the former Alameda Naval Air Station will be rehabilitated and operated by United Indian Nations using an SHP grant. The rehabilitation of the former Navy Lodge, also at Alameda NAS, was awarded a $1,670,400 SRO Moderate Rehabilitation grant. The facility will be operated by the San Leandro Shelter for Women and Children.

And, in addition, that by forming such a collaborative, the opportunities presented as a result of base conversion could be maximized by enabling the homeless community to speak as one voice. The Collaborative is participating in conversion activities at Alameda Naval Air Station, Oak Knoll Medical Facility, Oakland Naval Supply Center, and the Oakland Army Base. During the last year, the Homeless Collaborative, with support from HCD, has achieved on Alameda Naval Air Station (NAS) the largest single commitment of resources to meet the growing
