body
Financial Impact:
This anticipated revenue will be utilized in accordance with the Transitional Housing Program (THP) and Housing Navigation and Maintenance Program (HNMP) rules to help young adults formerly in foster care prevent homelessness. This funding was not planned in the 26/27 budget, so budget adjustments will be brought to the Board during a regular meeting or the midyear budget review. These are state funds with no County share. There is no impact to the General Fund.
Background Information:
Acceptance of these funds occurs every year. We have submitted to the state the THP round 8 and HNMP round 5 Allocation Acceptance forms pending Board approval. These funds are intended to help young adults ages 18 to 24 navigate housing options and secure and maintain housing, with priority given to young adults aging out of foster care. After accepting the allocation, the Department of Housing and Community Development will provide a contract for execution to Social Services.
