She said they also present a <br /> 17 longitudinal study analysis (LSA) at the end of the year and that shows what has happened over <br /> 18 the year. She said that study is used to help formulate plans. She said there are three or four <br /> 19 required reporting periods. <br /> 20 Commissioner Fowler said that she had referred a parent to the helpline, and they let her <br /> 21 know they called but that they could not be helped until August. She asked how she should <br /> 22 respond to that. <br /> 23 Blake Rosser said it depends on the program they need assistance for. He said that <br /> 24 since it is August, they might be talking about the longtime homeowner assistance program. <br /> 25 Commissioner Fowler said that it was for someone that does not have a home. <br /> 26 Blake Rosser said that he is unsure of the details of the call or why they were told that. <br /> 27 He asked Commissioner Fowler to forward that person directly to him so he could look into this. <br /> 28 Danielle DeCaprio said that the person could possibly be in a lease seeking emergency <br /> 29 housing assistance and the requirement is that they have to be within two weeks of eviction so it <br /> 30 may be what they were calling about. <br />
