  • HFA: Alaska Housing Finance Corporation Entry Name: Special Needs Housing Grant Program
    HFA: Alaska Housing Finance Corporation Entry Name: Special Needs Housing Grant Program In 2009, Alaska Housing Finance Corporation (AHFC) and its partners turbo-charged a modest state-funded program for special needs households experiencing, or at risk of, homelessness with a five-fold funding increase and a repurposed three-year roll-out plan. Upon completing the three year implementation, AHFC and its partners have provided new and stable supportive housing opportunities to 13.89% of the State’s total homeless households reported by HUD in 20091. Innovation: The Special Needs Housing Grant (SNHG) Program Historically, the corporate-funded SNHG program provided small capital grants to nonprofits for construction / rehabilitation activities which served special needs households. Since these SNHG program funds did not cover supportive service or operating assistance, nonprofits trying to serve households with the intensive supportive service needs often faced prohibitive budget constraints. In 2009, the SNHG program was repurposed into a one-stop-shop for capital, operating and supportive service grants to expand long term housing for special needs persons with intensive supportive service requirements. These SNHG funds serve persons that have experienced psychiatric hospitalization and / or incarceration, multiple / lengthy episodes of substance abuse treatment, and persons with disabilities experiencing, or at risk of, homelessness. Statewide, nonprofits applied for these multi-level SNHG funds through annual allocation cycles in 2009-2011. While four distinct state sources funded the repurposed SNHG program, all applications and grants were managed through a single point of contact for grantees at AHFC. Projects awarded operating and supportive service funds were given awards totaling three years of need.

  • The Purpose and Function of This Initiative by the Midtown CC: The
    9/19/19 Update Report by Ric Davidge, Vice President, Midtown Community Council regarding the effort by the Council and nine state legislators to push the Mayor and APD to more aggressively address the growing problems with ‘the homeless’ including public health. Context In almost a decade of work on the ‘homeless’ issues, mainly focused on veterans, I have not seen a more focused committed Mayor, or his team work harder on trying to deal with this issue. That doesn’t mean I have not been and remain a critic of this administration, but I believe it important to point out some of the advances Ethan, Nancy and some members of the Assembly have made the past five years. 1. The establishment of an Assembly work committee on the so-called homeless problem a. This has changed the understanding of the Assembly of these problems and their responsibilities to fix it, and it appears to be making real progress as they wrestle with diverse challenges monthly. 2. Breaking down silos of thought and process that did not integrate such toward solutions resulting in enormous inefficiency, waste, and few real results. 3. Most do not know that Anchorage remains flat in the growth of the homeless community compared to what has happened in most U.S. cities with this problem. 4. The most transformative action was setting up the mobile intervention team, (APD/AFD/Mayor - a social service unified command) This structural change is significant and showing real results. 5. Restructured the Anchorage Collation to End Homelessness to be more action oriented and better integrated – again structural changes towards addressing real problems 6.
