Commentary: Each year the City submits an application to HUD for funding under the Continuum of
Care Homeless Assistance Grant Program. Over the past 7 years we have received over $4 million, which
has l"raged almost double that amount from local social service agencies. As Part of this years
application we will request renewal of an existing outreach program at Shaw House, originally funded
under this Program in 1997; a Proposal by OHI to develop 16 units of scattered site Permanent
supportive housing efficiency units; a proposal by OHI to provide an outreach social worker to help
homeless people who are currently not eligible for assistance because of their Inability to access services;
and a proposal by Spruce Run to develop 3 units of transitional housing for women who are victims of
domestic abuse. Risexpected Mls years total request will be Por approximately $700,000.
