Background:

In 2017, through participation in the local Continuum of Care (CoC) and based on the community need identified by the Seminole Action Board, Seminole County Community Services and Aspire Health Partners partnered to increase the number of chronically homeless individuals served in Seminole County.  The renewal funding for Fiscal Year 2024-2025 will continue housing stabilization case management services for the chronically homeless through permanent supportive housing for clients who have been housed and seeking housing.

The 1.5 Case Management positions will continue to leverage housing resources for up to 26 chronically homeless Seminole County residents by accessing rental subsidies from the Continuum of Care (CoC) funding managed by Homeless Service Network (HSN).  In addition, one outreach worker will be funded to help maintain safety protocols for outreach services in Seminole County.

Requested Action:

Staff requests the Board approve and authorize the Chairman to execute the Aspire Health Partners, Inc. Homelessness Partnership Agreement in the amount $208,237 to continue providing outreach, engagement and assessments while maintaining housing stability case management services for the Seminole County chronically homeless population.
