(250 words or less) <br />As Orange County’s only provider of homeless shelter services, IFC works with numerous <br />community partners to ensure a community network of basic human services and <br />infrastructure that maintains, protects, and promotes the well-being of all county <br />residents. IFC provides social safety net services required for economic and social well- <br />being & opportunities to thrive, such as safe shelter and meals. IFC works with residents <br />to identify their goals in increasing their livelihood security and access the most <br />appropriate social safety net services, partly by participating in Orange County’s <br />Coordinated Entry system, which determines quickly, consistently, and effectively which <br />services or resources will best help people experiencing homelessness. We have worked <br />with local governments over the past 3 years to provide shelter and safety against COVID- <br />19, to which people experiencing homelessness are especially vulnerable. This past year we <br />worked with local governments to take a bigger role in financially supporting this work through <br />our request for an inter-local agreement. <br />11.
