Multnomah
County
Receives
Funds For
Homeless
Families
M ultnomah County this week an­
nounced receipt o f a $250,000 grant
from the U.S. Department o f Health
and Human Services to begin develop­
ment of a network of services for hom e­
less families at risk o f becoming hom e­
less. The grant will fund the “Family
and Community Partnership Project”
and is the first in a three-year funding
cycle.
This is the first grant received by
M ultnomah County ‘dedicated to the
prevention of homelessness for fam i­
lies. The project will provide case m an­
agement, crisis intervention, and evic­
tion prevention services for about 600
families a year in the urban core and
throughout the county. A unique fea­
ture of this project will involve estab­
lishing an early warning system within
public housing projects to identify fam i­
lies at risk of becoming homeless. If a
family is wsxperiencing a crisis that
could lead to lack o f housing, special­
ized support services will be made avail­
able.
There are currently an estimated
2,100 homeless families in M ultnomah
County and their number has increased
15% a year since 1989. In addition to
the M ultnomah County Housing and
C om m unity Services D ivision, the
Housing Authority of Portland, the A l­
bina M inisterial Alliance, Human So­
lutions, Inc., and the St. Johns YWCA
will all participate in this project. In­
cluding this award Multnomah County
has received $2.2 million in grand fund­
ing for homeless families in the last two
years.
