DISCUSSION:
In its 2023 State of the Homeless Report, Tarrant County Homeless Coalition (TCHC) announced a
22\% increase in overall homelessness and 27\% increase in family homelessness compared to 2020.
To respond to the increased needs of the homeless system, upon approval of the Fiscal Year 2024
Adopted Budget by Mayor and Council, three decision packages were authorized to expand programs
serving those experiencing homelessness for rapid exit, permanent supportive housing, and cold
weather sheltering.
In 2019, the City of Fort Worth (City) introduced a rapid exit program to the homeless system. Rapid
exit provides brief rental assistance and case management to help quickly house households who do
not need ongoing rental assistance or case management. The City contracted with Presbyterian Night
Shelter of Tarrant County, Inc. (PNS) to provide rapid exit and diversion services. Diversion in the local
homeless system means exiting someone back to housing within 14 days.
Even those households who are employed or have benefits rarely have $3,000.00 or more saved to
lease an apartment. This program allows people who are employed to quickly get off the street or out
of the shelter by paying for fees associated with moving into an apartment, in addition to one to three
months' rent. This reduces the person's time in homelessness and also frees up emergency shelter
beds. Since 2019, PNS has moved 873 households including 597 children into housing through the
rapid exit program. For households who exited the program, the rate of return to homelessness was
11\% (the national goal is less than 15\%). The amendment will bring the total contract amount to
$1,556,476.00.
The City has long been committed to permanent supportive housing. When TCHC received 368
Emergency Housing Vouchers from the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs, the City
saw an opportunity to leverage this new resource to boost the supply of permanent supportive housing
by offering case management to 175 households with these vouchers. The households served are a
mix of chronically homeless households and disabled family households in order to be responsive to
the family homelessness crisis.
The recommendation is to increase DRC-Solutions' permanent supportive housing case management
contract in the amount of $225,000.00 for a total contract amount of $425,977.00 and to increase the
My Health, My Resources of Tarrant County (MHMR) permanent supportive housing contract in the
amount of $225,000.00 for a total contract amount of $750,000.00. This reflects an increase of
$450,000.00 for permanent supportive housing case management services.
The recommendation is to increase Tarrant County Homeless Coalition's navigation contract in order to
continue to provide two outreach workers who work with the Police Department's Homeless Outreach
Program and Enforcement (HOPE) Team to provide mobile navigation services which connect those
experiencing unsheltered homelessness to services and provide housing assessments. These
positions were previously funded by a community partner agency with federal funds related to COVID
and have expired. In order to continue this service, the recommendation is to increase the contract in
the amount of $116,332.00 for a total contract amount of $150,000.00.
To provide up to 200 beds for cold weather shelter overflow, the recommendation is to contract with
When We Love to staff overflow shelter(s) at a designated site or sites when the weather reaches
certain temperatures and when all regular shelter beds are full.
Directions Home services and programs are available in ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations and adoption of
the Fiscal Year 2024 Budget by the City Council, funds will be available in the Fiscal Year
2024 operating budget, as appropriated, in the General Fund. Prior to an expenditure being incurred,
the Neighborhood Services Department has the responsibility to validate the availability of funds.
