not to exceed $25,000, to operate the Calli House Youth Shelter in Richmond, for the period
from April 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Federal funds committed to the operation of the shelter will be used to fulfill the 50% match
requirement. Up to $5,000 of these funds is to be used to purchase gift cards in
denominations of $10, $20, and $25 to support the clothing and supply needs of the youth
who access services. Gift cards provide the most flexibility in meeting the clothing needs of
young men and women who often wear larger sizes that are not readily available on-site. No
additional appropriation needed.

BACKGROUND:
The County Homeless program is seeking funding through the CSBG funding for operating
support of Calli House in Richmond. This program has provided outreach, short-term
shelter, goal-oriented counseling, educational and vocational opportunities to homeless and
street youth, ages 14-21, in West County since April 2002. Since that time, Calli House has
served over 750 unduplicated youth in its shelter and day center.
