Summary

The committee recommended the Board support HSH’s application for up to $150,000 in technical assistance to plan services and integration for No Place Like Home, a $2 billion state bond program for permanent supportive housing.

Emily Cohen and Carrie Abbott of the Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing asked the committee to support an application for up to $150,000 in technical assistance funding from the California Department of Housing and Community Development to support planning and implementation for No Place Like Home, a 2016 state program that dedicates bond proceeds for permanent supportive housing for people experiencing homelessness with mental health needs.

Carrie Abbott said the technical assistance would fund development of a services package, assessment of population needs and gaps, integration planning with the Health Homes program and Department of Public Health Behavioral Health Services, and coordination with other funding sources. HSH would serve as the lead agency for the technical assistance if awarded. The committee had no questions; Supervisor Katie Tang moved to send item 5 to the full Board with a positive recommendation and the motion passed without objection.
