TARGET POPULATION •Individuals and families, defined by 24 CFR 576.2, as homeless or at-risk, with an income below 30% of Madera County’s median income. HOUSING FIRST SERVICES All services must follow a Housing First model. Compliance with Housing First requires the following: 1. Low barriers to entry; 2. Intake process is expedited, client-centered, and flexible; 3. Access to housing is without preconditions; 4. Families and individuals are connected to permanent housing as early as possible in case planning; 5. Temporary housing/emergency shelter is offered; 6.

Leases or contractual agreements are used and reflect the same rights and responsibilities as other tenants; and 8. Every effort is made to prevent a return to homelessness. PROGRESSIVE ENGAGEMENT Services will be provided in compliance with the Progressive Engagement approach.

To comply with the Progressive Engagement model, CAPMC will provide services to each household based on an individualized assessment of each budget and require that a portion of rental expenses be paid from the program outset, even if that amount is minimal.
