Organizations Filed Purposes:
The organization creates sustainable change in the lives of our community's most vulnerable families through the provision of short-term emergency shelter, Rapid ReHousing and post-shelter case management.
Emergency Shelter: Through the emergency shelter component, the Organization provides temporary emergency shelter to parents with children who are homeless in our community. This short-term (up to 90- day) support offers safety and services to families seeking emergency shelter, including those who have been turned away from other shelters in Hillsborough County. Families in emergency shelter are provided essential services including: case management incorporating the principles of trauma-informed care, housing search and placement assistance, financial assistance (in the form of cash benefits and rent and utilities) to help them move into permanent housing, and post- shelter supportive services to ensure stability once permanently housed. This Housing First approach moves families more quickly into permanent housing. A major U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development research effort offers compelling evidence that Housing First strategies are superior for reducing homelessness for families with children compared to transitional housing programs and exclusive emergency shelter interventions. During the fiscal year, 129 adults and 192 children were provided short-term emergency shelter (10 two-parent households, 4 multi-generational households, 2 single father households, and a two-parent, multi-generational household). 77 families received post-shelter support services. 25 children received Ages and Stages Questionnaire developmental screenings.
Housing Services, Including Rapid Re-Housing Services: Housing and Support Specialists assist clients with housing searches and placement, as well as develop and maintain relationships with prospective and current property managers and landlords, including acting as liaisons between property managers/landlords and clients. Housing and Support Specialists maintain fidelity to the Housing First delivery model, an approach that prioritizes providing permanent housing quickly ending a family's homelessness. Rapid Re- Housing (RRH) services are available for clients who meet the qualifications and stipulations of the program and want to enroll. RRH interventions (financial support and follow-up support services) are designed to help those who do not need intensive supports to quickly exit homelessness for permanent housing. During the fiscal year, 67 families enrolled in Rapid Re-Housing and 64 were housed through the program.
