Supportive Housing Case Management and Peer Support Services

The vendor is required to provide supportive housing case management and peer support services to residents in nineteen (19) residential units of affordable housing at renaissance court apartments that serve households with a severe and persistent mental illness who are at or below 50% of area median income (“AMI”).
- Provide assistance to households that have secured permanent housing and express a need for, or desire to receive, supportive services to enhance housing stability.
- If households are already receiving housing support through alternative programs, they may be referred to this specific program for continuous case management services.
- It's important to note that this program covers the expenses associated with case management and other supportive services, and providers delivering these services may not be tasked with administering or providing rent subsidies for the participating households.
- The case management services offered are committed to ensuring participants sustain permanent housing over the long term, either through ongoing housing subsidy and support or by successfully transitioning away from rental subsidy and intensive case management support (referred to as "graduating").
- Budgets for this program should comprehensively encompass all related expenses, including staffing costs and adequate flexible funds to meet the outlined program outcomes.
- Supportive housing, as conceptualized in this program, combines affordable housing with adaptable, tenant-driven, non-time-limited, and voluntary case management services. 
- The overarching goal is to assist households experiencing homelessness in achieving housing stability.
- The primary path will be through community connection opportunities on-site, which will also function as a drop-in resource center for residents seeking to access peer support or address other needs.
- Specific components of supportive housing case management include, but are not limited to:
•    Identify and leverage existing individual and family strengths, expertise, and assets through a strength-based assessment
•    Work with participant to identify, develop, and maintain safe meaningful connections to their community and support network
•    Create a housing stability action plan and housing goals for each household, including wraparound services, which are collaborative between case manager and participant and focused on housing success.
