Opportunities to Address Homelessness in California Danielle Wildkress, CSH

1980s

Initial response to homelessness  Ad hoc responses, often by faith-based and community groups, aimed at meeting basic needs  Efforts are volunteer-driven and disjointed  1987—Congress passes the McKinney-Vento Act

Continuum of Care: old definition  How a homeless person moved through programs  System emphasized “housing readiness”  Barriers to permanent housing: sobriety requirements, excluded people with history of incarceration

Housing First: the 1990’s to today  Emphasizes rapid access to permanent housing  Support services focused on housing stability  No “housing readiness” standards or other barriers to housing  Embraced by the Bush Administration as part of their commitment to end chronic homelessness  Homeless Emergency Assistance & Rapid Transition to Housing Act (HEARTH Act) (2009), emphasized housing first

Homelessness in California  115,738 on a single night (about 250,000 in one year)  21% of nation’s homeless, 1/3 with mental illness  12,789 children are homeless, 898 unaccompanied  36% of nation’s chronically homeless

Impact of Homelessness on Californians with Behavioral Health Disorders 1/3 of children in foster care cannot be reunified with birth parents because parents lack a home. Homeless parolees/ probationers are 7 times more likely to recidivate. Each homeless person costs Medi- Cal over $21,500 a year. Those with SUD average over $60,000.

Effectiveness of Housing Interventions Data Source: HUD Family Options Study

Cost-Effectiveness of Supportive Housing Estimated annual public cost per 10th decile patient: $67,376 when homeless v. $19,399 when in PSH
