• Provide the ability of the applicant entity to carry out the proposed activities within the 2017 <br /> program year. <br /> • Demonstrate effectiveness in serving the homeless, including the ability to establish, maintain, ' <br /> and/or improve the self-suffiency of homeless individuals. <br /> • Timeliness of reimbursement request/draw requests will be considered for currently or previously ' <br /> funded entities. <br /> • It is a HUD policy that, within the framework of constitutional church-state guidelines, faith-based <br /> organizations should be able to compete on an equal footing with other organizations for federal <br /> funding. Accordingly, organizations that are faith-based are eligible, on the same basis as any other <br /> organization, to participate in HUD programs and activities, and therefore the City of South Bend's ' <br /> HUD-funded programs and activites. <br /> 4. If the jurisdiction is unable to meet the homeless participation requirement in 24 CFR ' <br /> 576.405(a), the jurisdiction must specify its plan for reaching out to and consulting with <br /> homeless or formerly homeless individuals in considering policies and funding decisions ' <br /> regarding facilities and services funded under ESG. <br /> The City, along with the Continuum of Care, has as their combined agenda, the development of a <br /> long term plan to include homeless participation on the Continuum. All sub-grantees are required to ' <br /> involve program participants in the operation of their ESG funded program. This involvement can be <br /> in the form of a program participants' employment or volunteering in program activities such as <br /> construction, renovation, maintenance, general operation of facilities, and provision of services. For <br /> example, a shelter might involve participants in ongoing maintenance tasks or other operations of <br /> the facility such as staffing the reception desk. This involvement can include paid and/or volunteer <br /> work. ' <br /> 5. Describe performance standards for evaluating ESG. ' <br /> The City, like HUD, recognizes that performance standards will evolve over the next few years as ESG <br /> sub-grantees improve their program outcomes through evaluation of HMIS data and through the ' <br /> integration of ESG services into the Continuum of Care. Implementation of the Emergency Solutions <br /> Grant will allow the City to gain baseline data about specific performance measures and <br /> performance standards. Information from FY 2012 through FY 2016 is used to further refine ' <br /> measures and standards for the FY 2017 ESG funds. When developing the performance standards, <br /> the City will also consider which data elements were required to be collected in HMIS for ESG, and <br /> additional data elements included in the March 2010 HMIS Data Standards. Discussion to date has ' <br /> included standards of housing stability; maintaining income/employment; access to other resources <br /> assistance; and the ability of a client to not fall back into a homeless situation. The CoC will continue <br /> to be a consulting partner as the ESG performance standards are finalized. ' <br /> Performance Measures for Homelessness Prevention: A reduction in the number of homeless <br /> households involving families with children (a priority need for homeless assistance within the <br /> local Continuum of Care community) ' <br /> Expected Outcome: At least 35% of participants assisted will remain in permanent housing six (6) <br /> months after the last assistance provided under ESG. <br /> Annual Action Plan 58 ' <br /> 2018 <br /> OMB Control No:2506-0117(exp.06/30/2018) ' <br />
