Who is Rapid Re-Housing for?
1. Literally homeless⁻ On the streets in a place not meant for
human habitation⁻ Emergency Shelter ⁻ Fleeing Domestic Violence (Category 4)
2. Cannot exit homelessness on their own

What is Diversion?
A strategy that prevents homelessness by helping people experiencing a housing crisis and seeking shelter to preserve their current housing situation or make immediate alternative arrangements without having to enter shelter
![Page 11: Housing Resource Centerswp.sbcounty.gov/dbh/sbchp/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/... · • CPS involvement after shelter entry increases, most ... • Set alternate performance goals](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042803/5f44c81d69c5af7a0b087df9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
FocusStrategies.net
Reasons to Implement Diversion• Improves system outcomes by reducing
entries into homelessness• Improves quality of life by helping people
avoid the stress of shelter stays• Conserves and targets resources – shelter
beds used only when needed• Cuts down on shelter wait lists

FocusStrategies.net
Who can be diverted?
• HMIS data shows that many people who enter shelter are not literally homeless – they are staying temporarily with family or friends, in motels, or may still have their own housing.
• Even some who are literally homeless can be “diverted” into an appropriate housing situation without a shelter stay

FocusStrategies.net
Diversion is Problem Solving
• Successful diversion programs treat the process as an opportunity to explore a household’s current housing crisis and be creative about housing options.
• Involves asking about every available resource household might have to stay housed or move directly to other housing
• Also involves frank conversations about conditions in shelter and likely options after shelter

Homelessness is Misunderstood &It Impacts Shelter Practice
While there are over 43 Million people living in poverty, less than 600,000 will be homeless on any given night.
Federal rent assistance programs only assist 5 Million people annually.
4.2% of the population in the United States lives with a Serious Mental Illness. Only 42% receive treatment or counseling.
7% of the population has an addiction or dependency on alcohol. 93% receive nor treatment or assistance with their problematic alcohol use.
3% of the population uses other illicit drugs. 88% receive no treatment or counseling.

Performance Benchmarks
Rapid Re-housing’s three primary goals:
1. Reduce the length of time program participants spend homeless,
2. Exit households to permanent housing, and3. Limit returns to homelessness within a year
of program exit.
![Page 40: Housing Resource Centerswp.sbcounty.gov/dbh/sbchp/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/... · • CPS involvement after shelter entry increases, most ... • Set alternate performance goals](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042803/5f44c81d69c5af7a0b087df9/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Performance BenchmarksReminder: A community may not yet have any programs that meet these benchmarks. • Set alternate performance goals for the purposes of
comparison between programs.• Set alternative goals for performance improvement,
while programs work to achieve these benchmarks.
![Page 41: Housing Resource Centerswp.sbcounty.gov/dbh/sbchp/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/... · • CPS involvement after shelter entry increases, most ... • Set alternate performance goals](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042803/5f44c81d69c5af7a0b087df9/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Performance Benchmarks• It is important to remember that rapid re-housing
is a Housing First intervention and programs should screen out households based on criteria that are assumed to predict successful outcomes, such as income, employment, criminal history, mental health history, medical history, or evidence of “motivation.”
• The benchmarks are based on performance data of programs that do not screen households out on the basis of the above barriers.
• Measure performance using HMIS
![Page 42: Housing Resource Centerswp.sbcounty.gov/dbh/sbchp/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/... · • CPS involvement after shelter entry increases, most ... • Set alternate performance goals](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042803/5f44c81d69c5af7a0b087df9/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Performance Benchmark #1: Reduce the length of time program participants spend homeless
To meet this performance benchmark, households served by the program should move into permanent housing in an average of 30 days or less.
Average =
Sum of number of days from program entry to move in date for all households
_____________________________________________Total number of households

Performance Benchmark #2: Permanent housing success rates
To meet this performance benchmark, at least 80 percent of households that exit a rapid re-housing program should exit to permanent housing.
