SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION 1. RECOMMENDATIONS: A. Approve and Authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to develop and transmit an application .along with the necessary certification and assurances to the City of Concord Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)for the operation of the Mt. View Emergency Shelter for families. B. Authorize the Director of Health Services or his designee to accept up to $75,000 in City of Concord CDBG funding and enter into a contract with the City of Concord to perform all responsibilities in relationship to receipt of the funding and contracted provisions for FY 2001 - 2002. 11. FISCAL IMPACT: The funds requested of the City of Concord CDBG are essential to providing adequate emergency housing and supportive services to families year-round. No additional County funds are required. Ill. BACKGROUND: According to the Continuum of Care Gaps Analysis 2000, there are approximately 282 emergency shelter beds available for families in Contra Costa, 90 of which are only available during the cold weather season of November through March. The demand for shelter far exceeds the County's current capacity forcing homeless service providers to turn away an average of 40 families per night, many of which are from Central and East County where there are no year-round facilities. It is with this knowledge that the Contra Costa County Homeless Continuum of Care 5 yr. Plan (1996), approved by the County Board of Supervisors, identified the need for the expansion of year-round emergency shelter beds for families and ranked it a high priority. In August 2000, construction on a new transitional housing facility for homeless families began with the approval and support of the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors and the Department of Housing and Urban Development. Aimed at creating additional supportive housing units in the County for parents and their children, the East County Transitional Family Center will offer families currently receiving services at the County's old transitional housing facility in Martinez, CA to move to the new state of the art facility in Antioch in April 2001. This expansion in transitional housing units creates a unique opportunity and creates a space for a year-round emergency shelter for 5-8 families at a time (24 beds) and fill a much need gap in emergency services. Anticipating a complete Conversion to emergency services in June 2001, the Mt. View Emergency Shelter for Families located in Martinez, CA will provide shelter and supportive services to approximately 96 family members annually. Designed to meet the immediate shelter needs of parents and their children, Mt. View will be a year- round, 24-hour facility aimed at stabilizing each family by offering a safe environment with critical support services over a 90-day period. Every family will meet with a case manager to identify the short-term needs of each family member that will enable the family to move to a more stable living situation. These supportive services are the building blocks necessary to assist families in making the transition off the streets and into more stable housing.
