| Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
In February 2020, the Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”) issued allocation acceptance forms for Round 1 of funding under the Transitional Housing Program (“THP”). Subsequently, in July 2020, HCD issued allocation acceptance forms for additional funding under Round 2 for the Transitional Housing Program. As part of this process, HCD requires that County submit an application for Round 2 funding in the form of an Allocation Acceptance form, accompanied by a Board Resolution authorizing the County to apply for and accept this funding, as well as designating the signatory for the associated allocation award.
The purpose of the Transitional Housing Program is to provide housing services to target populations in the community as follows:
Funding under this program may be used to identify and assist with housing services for young adults from 18 to 25 years of age in the community to secure and maintain housing (with priority given to those in the state’s foster care or probation system); improve coordination of services and linkages to community resources within the child welfare system and the Homeless Continuum of Care; and provide engagement in outreach and targeting to serve those with the most severe needs. Based on each county’s percentage of total statewide number of young adults aged 18-25 years in foster care, County is eligible to receive an allocation of approximately $37,600 for Fiscal Years 2021-23. |
