RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #25–046–23 with Shelter, Inc., a non-profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $1,073,302, to provide support services for County residents in the supportive housing program, for the period from December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2022.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract is funded by 70% Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), 28% Federal McKinney-Vento Homeless funds, and 2% Mental Health Services Act (MHSA). (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

This contract meets the social needs of the County’s population by providing support services to County residents that are homeless with a diagnosis of mental illness or a dual-diagnosis of mental illness and substance abuse. Shelter Inc. has been providing support services to County residents since August 2001.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On December 15, 2020, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #25-046-21 with Shelter, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $750,000 to provide support services to County residents in the Supportive Housing Program that are homeless and have a diagnosis of mental illness or dual-diagnosis of mental illness and substance abuse, for the period from December 1, 2020 through November 30, 2021.

On November 2, 2021, the Board of Supervisors approved Amendment Agreement #25-046-22 with Shelter, Inc. to increase the payment limit by $55,457 to a new payment limit of $805,457 with no change in the term December 1, 2020 through November 30, 2021. This contract is late due to staff shortages and administrative oversight at the Health, Housing, and Homeless Services Division.

Approval of Contract #25-046-23 will allow the contractor to continue to provide housing support services through November 30, 2022.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, County residents who are homeless with a disability and are receiving services in the supportive housing program will not receive services from this contractor.
