Request for Proposals
INTRODUCTION
Sutter Yuba Homeless Consortium (SYHC) is inviting proposals from qualified private
nonprofit or public organizations capable of operating programs that provide services to
individuals experiencing homelessness in Yuba and Sutter County under the Homeless
Housing Incentive Program (HHIP). This program is issued by the local managed care
plans (MCP), Anthem Blue Cross and California Health and Wellness.
To align the needs of HHIP grant funding, SYHC and the counties of Sutter and Yuba have
developed a Local Homeless Action Plan (LHAP) to reduce homelessness and its impact
on the community. This plan builds upon the Forward Yuba Sutter: Creating Opportunities
five-year regional strategic plan and serves as a continuation of its goals. The priorities
identified in the plan are being utilized for the allocation of available HHIP funds. In addition
to the LHAP, Cal ICH expects agencies to:
-
Strategically pair funds with other local, state, and federal funds to reduce and end homelessness.
-
Demonstrate a commitment to address racial disproportionality in homeless populations and achieve equitable provision of services and outcomes for Black, Native/Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, Pacific Islanders and other People of Color who are disproportionately impacted by homelessness.
-
Establish a mechanism for people with lived experience of homelessness to have meaningful and purposeful opportunities to inform and shape all levels of planning and implementation, including through opportunities to hire people with lived experience.
