CONTRACT PERIOD
AND AMOUNTS:
SUMMARY OF SERVICES:
The Housing Authority of the County of Fresno (Housing Authority)shall provide a
California Work Opportunity and Responsibility to Kids (CaIWORKs)Housing Support
Program (HSP)which will include activities designed to rapidly re-house families who
are experiencing homelessness and are referred for services.Rapid re-housing is a
strategy that has been proven effective in ending homelessness and includes services
designed to help those experiencing homelessness to be quickly re-housed and
stabilized.Services include case management,financial assistance,and housing and
relocation services.
The Housing Authority,as the operator of the Housing and Urban Development (HUD)
mandated Homeless Management Information System (HMIS)for Fresno and Madera
Counties,will provide HMIS services to collect CalWORKs HSP data.The HMIS
program is used for the collection of unduplicated data on services provided to
individuals and families.
TARGET POPULATION:
This program will provide services to households with children residing in Fresno
County who are receiving CalWORKs and seeking homeless assistance.
CONTRACTOR RESPONSIBILITIES:
The Housing Authority shall provide a CalWORKs Housing Support Program offering
services listed in this exhibit to clients referred and accepted to the program.When a
referral is received,the Housing Authority shall review the referral,conduct an intake
assessment,and provide services accordingly.
--------------------------------------------
Exhibit A-1
Page 2 of 3
All families assisted through this program will be administered a Family Vulnerability
Index and Service Prioritization Decision Assistance Tool (F-VI-SPDAT)prior to service
commencement.Additionally,each assisted family will utilize the Fresno Madera
Continuum of Care's Coordinated Assessment Housing Match system which will
standardize the access and assessment process for coordinating referrals and providing
assistance.
The Housing Authority shall provide the following services:
1.Case Management Services:This project will employ a case manager whose
primary responsibilities will be:
•Development of an Individual Service Plan;
•Assistance in finding and maintaining housing;
•Coordination of services with relevant providers;and
•Provision of supports necessary to foster self-sufficiency.
Project participants will be required to meet with a case manager at least monthly
while being provided financial assistance.Additional supports for participants
will come from community partners within the Fresno Madera Continuum of Care
(FMCoC),Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG)partners and Fresno County school
districts including Fresno Unified School District.
The Individual Service Plan will be primarily developed by the information
gathered from the F-VI-SPDAT;however,additional measures may be used.
Case management is meant to quickly foster self-sufficiency such that
homelessness does not reoccur.As such,primary reasons for homelessness
will be discussed and plans for resolution made.Case notes will be updated
monthly with progress and/or barriers noted.Reassessment of need for housing
support will occur every six months.Participants will be referred to relevant and
appropriate community partners based on both F-VI-SPDAT information and
subsequent needs/desires of the family.
As a tenant based rental assistance program,households will exercise choice in
housing location throughout the City and County of Fresno.Housing choice is a
better predicator of housing stability and retention as families will take advantage
of natural support amenities -e.g.educational opportunities for themselves and
their children.Project participants will be assigned a Housing Navigator who will
assist in housing search most suitable to the needs and desires of the family.
The Housing Navigator will also advocate on the family's behalf with property
managers/landlords,and assist with understanding of lease and tenanUlandlord
responsibilities.
