Background:

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) approved a Rapid Rehousing (RRH) project-funding application submitted by Homeless Services Network (HSN).  As the lead agency for the Continuum of Care (CoC), HSN committed to operating and administering RRH project funding. As part of the joint funding award through HSN, Seminole County Community Services Department was selected as a sub-recipient agency to sponsor a CoC funded RRH project in the amount of $35,457.00.  A 25% match in the amount of $8,864.25 is required per CoC guidelines.

 

CoC funding will be used to provide housing stability case management services. Housing Stability Case Management Services will include intake, assessment, and housing navigation services for households enrolled in the County’s Rapid Rehousing Program with HSN.
