  1. Greater Richmond CoC Committee Structure August 15, 2013

  2. Background • The Greater Richmond CoC has used workgroups for years as a way to get service provider input, to test models, to examine and validate data, and to create community policies. • Several workgroup examples are: • Executive Director’s (ED) Network, Coordinated Outreach, Case Managers Network, Data Committee, CoC Ranking Committee • Homeward has traditionally convened these workgroups and supported them with staffing resources, analyses, and data.

  3. Why now? • With publication of the interim rule of the HEARTH Act, HUD has given clear guidance on how continuums should collaboratively plan and coordinate work. • The Greater Richmond CoC has formally adopted a CoC structure, so we need to review the roles of existing committees, formalize them, and incorporate them into the newly ratified CoC structure.

  4. CoC Committee Structureper the CoC Bylaws The following are standing CoC Committees: • HMIS • Coordinated Assessment • Performance Measurement/Quality Improvement • Continuum of Care Funding Program • Nominating

  5. Proposed Structure

  6. Vertical Integration:Committee Structure Goals • Committees are expected to • create synergy between the subcommittees’ work and larger continuum planning processes that require the input of the membership and support of the CoC Board • educate the board about nuances that are being addressed by the subcommittees and task forces • support subcommittees and task forces by educating them on larger policy environment and CoC goals • Subcommittees and task forces are expected to • address the needs of sub-populations and intervention details • be solution oriented • provide a forum for analysis based on practice expertise • assist standing committees with integrating work into the larger policy context

  7. 2012 CoC Program Funding Update • The Greater Richmond CoC total award amount for 2012 Award- over $4 million • Items funded in this award include supportive services, permanent housing, permanent supportive housing, and transitional housing • Specifically, these dollars support over 230 permanent supportive housing units • 36 households to be served with RRH • New projects covered in this funding • YWCA-RRH for victims of DV • Richmond Department of Justice Services- RRH FUSE and PSH FUSE • Homeward CoC Planning

  8. 2013 CoC Funding Preview • We expect the NOFA to be released in the mid to late Fall. • HUD has announced that there will likely be a 5% across the board cut to the amount available to CoC’s in the 2013 Competition. • Homeward is working with new grantees to support implementation. • Homeward is working with the CoC to make sure the structures are in place to support HEARTH implementation. • Homeward will start working with the CoC Board to recruit members for the CoC Funding Program Committee. • Homeward is assisting grantees with specific TA requests. • The outcome review process will begin with APR cleanup.

  9. Funding-ESG • Homeward, representing the DHCD ESG allocation for the Greater Richmond CoC, and the Richmond Department of Community Development are working in partnership to address local coordination of ESG funds. • Specifically, we are interested in making sure those from entitlement communities are served by agencies receiving ESG allocations from the city of Richmond and those from non-entitlement agencies are served by providers receiving State ESG funds. • Homeward is working with State ESG Funded providers to coordinate with partners in semi-rural communities to inform them about ESG funds and to streamline their access to these dollars. • There will be an information session for rural localities in the coming month to explain RRH and prevention resources and to provide a connection with service providers.

  10. Funding-Coordination of DHCD RRH and Prevention Resources (ESG, HSG, and HPP) In preparation for the 2014 Unified Application from DHCD, Homeward will convene a 6-week planning process to • clearly identify the resources available for direct client assistance, • clarify the community process for meeting eligibility requirements including verifying homelessness status and assessing for barriers, and • adopt CoC standards around eligibilityfor services.

  11. Funding-Coordination of DHCD RRH and Prevention Resources (ESG, HSG, and HPP) Milestones Timeline • August 9th- Deadline for completing funding spreadsheet • August 26th- Planning Meeting – only agencies receiving ESG,HSG, and HPP funds for client assistance should attend. • Time: 1p-3:30p • Location TBD • Please RSVP • September 7, 2013- CoC standards for eligibility of DHCD Funds
