Notes de l'éditeur
- As the resources from the stimulus-funded Homelessness Prevention and Rapid Re-Housing Program (HPRP) diminish, communities are faced with finding new ways to keep their HPRP-funded programs running. Here is how Housing for New Hope, in Durham/Chapel Hill, NC, strategies are preserving and maintaining rapid re-housing and prevention programs continued federal support.
- Shifting community model to re-housing: had permanent supportive; but had been reliant solely on site-based transitional housing prior to HPRP; new model to utilize transitional structures for single/families with higher level barriers. Local Evidence of Success: Local evidence of the success of this program model can be seen through the work of Durham’s Re-Housing Team, which has effectively implemented a rapid re-housing program. The re-housing work has been funded through the Homeless Prevention Rapid Re-Housing Program (HPRP) with funding provided through President Obama’s Stimulus Program and managed locally by Housing for New Hope (HNH). HNH received funds from both the City and State HPRP funds. From January 2010 through December, 2011 the three-person Re-Housing Team of Housing for New Hope has assisted 143 households transition from homelessness to their own homes. Those receiving assistance included 60 individuals and 83 family households, including 187 children for a total of 348 people.
- Transitions to Permanence (TOP) Collaborative Decided to focus on families with a goal of serving 40 families per year (2011 Point in Time count was 44 families down from 51 in 2010, a 14% reduction due to HPRP primarily. Thought the focus could move us toward ending child and family homelessness in Durham. 4 Emergency and Transitional Providers partnered with Housing for New Hope along 12 other service providers including employment, mental and primary health, social services, to develop plan. Average length of support will be for 6 months, could go as long a year for some families. Sought funding in 2011 round of CoC funding under the Transition in Place model.
