The goal of the program is to ensure: 1) those preparing to enter into permanent housing are housed and easily located, receiving the necessary services to access permanent housing in a timely manner and 2) youth who are unsheltered and not appropriate for the adult triage center have an emergency bed available. Services are housing-focused and highly integrated with both the permanent housing provider and the participant’s Navigator. Services also include health and safety education. $236,354.98 $0.00 $0.00 Transitional Housing Operating Subsidies $236,354.98 $0.00 $0.00 Total: $236,354.98 Total: $0.00 Total: $0.00 $236,354.98 $0.00 $0.00 Please describe the ways in which you are determining the disproportionate impacts that homelessness has on communities of color, particularly Black, Latinx, Asian, Pacific Islander, and Native and Indigenous communities. Please reference any data and data source that you use to analyze this information. How are the voices of Black, Latinx, Asian, Pacific Islander, Native and Indigenous communities and those with lived experience of homelessness being centered in a meaningful, sustained way in creating effective approaches to reducing and ending homelessness? How are they involved in the funding decision-making process? How has the HHAP project funding process included prioritization for programs that are addressing the disproportionate impacts that homelessness and COVID-19 has on communities of color, particularly Black, Latinx, Asian, Pacific Islander, and Native and Indigenous communities? Racial Equity Review The CoC, along with the County of Fresno, is currently analyzing the disparities occurring in the community and developing a plan to address findings. The following data sources are being utilized in this effort. • The HUD CoC Racial Equity Analysis tool, and by extension the 2017 Point-in-Time Count and the 2010-2015 American Community Survey (ACS). • Stella Tools • 2019 Point-in-Time Count • Case Study of Village of Hope Project – Racial Disparity Assessment The CoC, along with the County of Fresno, is analyzing the disparities occurring in the community and developing a plan to address findings and create meaningful input into the procurement and funding processes. The HHAP project funding was implemented in alignment with the HEAP grant procurement process, which did not include prioritization for programs that address the disproportionate impacts of homelessness and COVID-19 has on communities of color. The FMCoC, through its administrative entity, the County of Fresno, plans to proactively prioritize agencies and programs that will serve underserved and marginalized communities through the upcoming procurement process for HHAP Round 2 funds and other funding sources. How have you partnered differently with your neighboring cities, CoCs and/or Counties as result of receiving HHAP funding? Please share at least one successful collaboration in detail and what made it successful. Please describe any barriers to partnering you have experienced since receiving your HHAP allocation. Please explain why this has been a barrier and how it could be resolved. Have you developed any new local level partnerships as a result of planning for HHAP funded projects? What have the outcomes been of these newly developed partnerships? In this case, partnership is broadly defined and not restricted to those with whom you have contracted. Partnership Review Please provide any additional comments Name Title The budget and service plans for HHAP funding have been increasingly integrated with joint planning for both funding and service coordination. One example is the collaboration between the City, County, and CoC whereby funding from the City will be used to pick up where the CoC and County funding is depleted to enable the City to continue providing the 50-bed Navigation Center program with Mental Health Systems, Inc. in Fresno, CA for an additional 24 months. As with much of the funding coming from various sources to the local level, funding awarded to multiple entities is subject to the administrative requirements and priorities or each entity. This can make it challenging to align services across the community. Communication is also a challenge due to the number of individuals involved at the planning and administrative level. The resolutions require entities to come together to identify the needs of the community and gaps in meeting those needs, for each entity to communicate a clear direction for addressing the gaps, and for each entity to do its part in advocating for a common solution for the entire continuum. Shortly prior to the release of the HHAP NOFA, the CoC approved participation of its Board Chair in the Street2Home Fresno County collective impact initiative. The foundational structure of the Street2Home includes representation from all the regional co-applicants, the Fresno Housing Authority, and representatives from philanthropy, the business community, this hospital system, and Fresno County rural cities. This organization allows for participating community stakeholders to more readily identify and align existing homeless resources and coordinate planning efforts to create long-term housing solutions throughout the region. The list of 14 priorities developed by Street2Home to strategically address homelessness in the region has informed the regional co- applicant planning process for HHAP Round 1 and 2 funding and helped to foster better coordination between new and existing services between all local partners.
