3 <br /> 1 HUD funding (grants) <br /> 2 • Continuum of Care = $550,000/year <br /> 3 o Permanent Supportive Housing (Cardinal Innovations & UNC) <br /> 4 • Emergency Solutions Grant= $190,000/year <br /> 5 o Emergency Shelter (IFC) <br /> 6 o Rapid Re-Housing (DSS) <br /> 7 <br /> 8 Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) <br /> 9 • All grantees required to enter data in HMIS <br /> 10 • 2015 new NC HMIS administrator = reliable data <br /> 11 <br /> 12 Performance Indicators <br /> 13 1. Reduce the length of time people are homeless (target < 30 days). <br /> 14 2. Reduce returns to homelessness. <br /> 15 3. Reduce the overall number of persons who experience homelessness. <br /> 16 4. Increase job and income growth for persons who are homeless. <br /> 17 <br /> 18 OCPEH 2015 Plan to End Homelessness <br /> 19 HOUSING <br /> 20 1. Increase housing opportunities. <br /> 21 o Rapid Re-Housing <br /> 22 o Permanent Supportive Housing <br /> 23 o Affordable rental housing (esp. < 30% AMI) <br /> 24 2. Increase number of landlords that will rent to people experiencing/at risk of <br /> 25 homelessness. <br /> 26 3. Increase Town of Chapel Hill public housing units and Orange County Housing Choice <br /> 27 Vouchers available to homeless. <br /> 28 4. Implement Coordinated Entry System <br /> 29 <br /> 30 Commissioner Rich asked if she understood correctly that the Housing Choice Voucher <br /> 31 Program has been closed for five years, and no one is on the list. <br /> 32 Jamie Rohe said it is actually a very full list, but it is a waiting list that is closed. She <br /> 33 said the list has about 1,600 people on it, and it takes about ten years to receive a voucher due <br /> 34 to very slow turn over. <br /> 35 Commissioner Rich asked if the 1,600 people are still in Orange County. <br /> 36 Jamie Rohe says the list is purged and updated on a regular basis. <br /> 37 Commissioner Rich asked if the list were to be reopened, to whom it would be targeted. <br /> 38 Jamie Rohe said neither the County nor the Town of Chapel Hill have been approached <br /> 39 about a collaboration. She said there is a lot of guidance from the Department of Housing and <br /> 40 Urban Development (HUD) about how local housing authorities and partnerships to end <br /> 41 homelessness can work together. She said she has only just begun to look into this potential <br /> 42 collaboration and the best practices by which to achieve it. She said one possibility, that caught <br /> 43 her attention, was the option of opening an additional waiting list that is targeted at a particular <br /> 44 group, such as those experiencing homelessness. <br /> 45 Chair McKee said he does not understand how starting a new waiting list offers much <br /> 46 help, when there is no housing available for the people on the existing waiting list. <br /> 47 Jamie Rohe said this is the very reason there must be a Community dialogue between <br /> 48 all stakeholders. She said if a preference were to be given to those experiencing <br /> 49 homelessness, it may change their rank on the waiting list. <br />
