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.
