RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf the County Contract #25-077-12 in an amount not to exceed $615,282 with Contra Costa Interfaith Transitional Housing, Inc. (dba Hope Solutions), a non-profit corporation, to provide housing services to the County’s Coordinated Entry System (CES) for the period from July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2023.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this contract will result in contractual service expenditures of up to $615,282 for FY 2022-2023 and will be funded by 67% Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Coordinated Entry and 33% State Housing Security funds.

BACKGROUND:

This contract meets the social needs of the County’s population by providing housing navigation support services to Contra Costa County families that are homeless. Contractor has been providing services under this contract since November 2016.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On July 27, 2021, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #25-077-9 with Contra Costa Interfaith Transitional Housing, Inc. (dba Hope Solutions), in an amount not to exceed $460,000 to provide housing navigation services for the Coordinated Assessment Referral and Engagement (CARE) Centers and CARE Capable Centers for the Homeless CE System, for the period from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022.

On December 14, 2021, the Board of Supervisors approved Amendment Agreement #25-077-10 with Contra Costa Interfaith Transitional Housing, Inc. (dba Hope Solutions), to increase the payment limit by $155,282 to a new total payment limit of $615,282 with no change in the term through June 30, 2022.

On February 22, 2022, the Board of Supervisors approved Amendment Agreement #25-077-11 to increase the payment limit by $100,000, from $615,282 to a new total payment limit of $715,282, with no change in the term through June 30, 2022.

Approval of Contract #25-077-12 will allow the contractor to continue to provide housing services to county’s CES through June 30, 2023. The division gained community approval to implement standardized program models to ensure consistency and accountability in county's system of care. These program models were approved June 2, 2022 by the Council on Homelessness and the Continuum of Care which delayed the delivery of contracts across the division's provider network.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, families that are homeless will not have access to this contractor’s housing services.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

This program supports the following Board of Supervisors’ community outcomes: “Families that are Safe, Stable, and Nurturing”; and “Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children and Families”. Expected program outcomes include an increase in positive social and emotional development as measured by the Child and Adolescent Functional Assessment Scale (CAFAS).
