E: CoC Governing Structure Chart 1. Is the CoC's primary decision-making body a legally recognized organization (check one)? Yes, a 501(c)(3) Yes, a 501(c)(4) Yes, other specify: State Government No, not legally recognized 2. If your CoC were provided with additional administrative funds from HUD, would the primary decision-making body, or an agent designated by it (e.g. a city or non-profit organization), be able to be responsible for activities such as applying for HUD funding and serving as the grantee, providing project oversight, and monitoring? Explain. Yes. DCA currently administers ESG and S+C programs state-wide, so it would not have to create capacity, but would instead expand capacity. Flexible additional administrative funds would allow us to expand our activities related to technical assistance, leveraging outside funds and providing project oversight, particularly with grantees with limited organizational capacity 3. What percentage of the decision-making body membership represents the private sector, including non-profit providers, homeless or formerly homeless persons, 68% advocates and consumer interests, etc.? 68% of the current DCA board are individuals from the private sector. 4a. Indicate how the members of the primary decision-making body are selected (check all that apply): Elected Appointed Assigned/Volunteer Other specify 4b. Briefly explain the selection process. (For example, if 5 members are appointed and 6 are elected, explain why this process was established and describe how it works.) The GA Department of Community Affairs is governed by a 21-member board appointed by the Governor. As a state agency, board membership and governance are established by state statute. CoC priorities are established by the State Homeless Advisory Council. Volunteers for this group are solicited among those on the Council who do not have a conflict of interest in project selection. State Homeless Advisory Council members represent the full range of interests related to the persons in Georgia experiencing homelessness. 5.

HMIS implementation: Our strategic planning process revealed that some larger agencies were resisting participation in HMIS because they felt that user fees were too high. The continuum's nonprofit HMIS provider reduced fees significantly in response to this complaint, eliminating this objection. Strategic planning also revealed that many agencies are mandated to use multiple client management systems. Pathways, our nonprofit provider, is now developing an XML import feature to accept data from other systems that can supply data in accordance with HUD's new XML data exchange standard. 2. HMIS Data and Technical Standards Final Notice requirements: Due to the sheer size of the Balance of State continuum, it is difficult to monitor agencies for ongoing compliance with the final notice standards (antivirus up to date, posted privacy notices, etc.). The continuum is currently investigating best practices to address this issue. A frequently mentioned objection to HMIS has been that it adds effort and complexity to the provision of housing and other services to people who are homeless. HMIS project funds have been used to purchase software that will allow organizations to export HMIS data in a format that can be imported into spreadsheets, other databases and analytical software so that user agencies can fully manipulate it for use in planning and resource allocation.

Create new PH beds for chronically homeless persons. DCA will create new PH beds for the chronically homeless by identifying localities of highest need, local supportive service partners, sponsors of S+C beds, & developers utilizing HOME funds and housing tax credits for construction, coupled with Section 8 vouchers for rental assistance. Action steps: Through the state's PSH program, DCA expects to complete the underwriting and make commitments for 88 new permanent beds for the CH during the current 12 months. Construction should begin in 2008, with beds available early in the 5-year planning period. DCA has included a special needs housing requirement as part of the 07/08 Qualified Allocation Process for tax credit and HOME funded rental developments; 50 Housing Choice vouchers have been allocated to those units. Those units will come on-line during the 5-year planning period. The Balance of State CoC will continue to emphasize S+C to meet the PH needs of the CH. The state's Community Service Boards, along with other nonprofit service providers, are expected to be the primary sponsors for new S+C beds. DCA will offer these providers TA, workshops and forums, and will match successful S+C providers with new/potential providers.

The Council was charged to, based on earlier Policy Academy recommendations, develop a Homeless Action Plan and to report on its progress annually. The council is co-chaired by Commissioner Beatty of DCA and Commissioner Walker of DHR. Goal 3 of the Plan is to "end the discharge of institutionalized individuals (to include discharge from correction facilities, public health or mental hospitals, treatment facilities, foster care, or juvenile justice programs) directly to homeless facilities which are unprepared and unable to meet the supportive service needs of the individual." The plan includes actions steps and, recognizing that systems change is more realistically accomplished by measured steps over time, goals are established by the council each year. The following is a summary of accomplishments/protocols established during the past 12 months. Foster Care: Four state departments, DCA, Human Resources (a/k/a DHR, includes rehabilitation services, MH, DD, AD and DFCS), Juvenile Justice and Labor, established the "Match Transition Protocol" in 2002. Match Transition case workers are responsible for assessment, pre-planning and follow-up following discharge. The case worker coordinates benefits and services. In 2006, a special housing project was approved to compliment these efforts. Acquisition has already taken place. The project budget is $5 million dollars. DCA is a member of the Youth Transition Protocol Committee that meets monthly around the issues of youth with serious mental illness aging out of state foster care. DCA has (1) made Section 8 vouchers available to this group (60 issued in past 12 months), and (2) is aggressively working to develop protocols for the production of new permanent supportive housing, and to use those protocols to implement a pilot project utilizing HOME, Section 8 and other resources. Recognizing the need for community supports at the time of discharge, the Department of Juvenile Justice has developed pilot post-discharge case management protocols. This effort, in conjunction with current protocols surrounding pre-discharge planning, will improve success among youth in transition. 52,000 youth pass through Georgia's Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) each year. DJJ has partnered with other state agencies to develop a "front-end" diversion model for youth with substance use and related problems; many with unstable housing histories, including homelessness. This partnership provides substance abuse and reentry services to juveniles ages 14 to 21, returning to the community. The program can serve 525 substance abusing youth offenders over four years. In the fall of 2006, 155 youth were being served by 11 different service providers. GA Balance of State CoC, GA-501 Page 54 Chart O Form HUD-40090-1 Health Care: The GA Balance of State CoC, in its state-wide planning processes, has not identified significant problems associated with the discharge of persons from health care institutions to homelessness, where the persons have been in hospitals (not MH!) for 30 days or longer. Regardless, the need for appropriate housing for persons who are homeless upon entry and exit (days or not overnight, etc.) from medical facilities is severe. The CoC is working to replicate best practices as follows: DCA and the Department of Community Health have been actively working to replicate hospital/homeless CoC protocols developed in Savannah, GA. Early in 2006, the St. Vincent de Paul respite center opened in Augusta. Augusta is the home of the Medical College of Georgia, and its affiliate, the MCG Medical Center, and serves many homeless and indigent patients from around the region and the state. The respite center serves the region as a point of discharge for persons who are homeless upon entry and discharge. DCA is studying and preparing to duplicate protocols established by the Health Access Initiative (HAI) in Hall County. Established by medical providers, this project coordinates appropriate access to health care, as well as appropriate housing and community services for homeless adults with limited resources. One of HAI's community partners is the Georgia Mountains Community Services Board. As a GHFA S+C sponsor, this organization directly links eligible adults in the program to permanent housing. HAI has successfully established protocols providing a comprehensive safety net with clear portals of entry, a medication assistance program, care management/navigation and permanent housing for many who are homeless with disabilities. Due to its easy access from to much of North Georgia, Kennestone Hospital has the busiest emergency room in the state. Cobb County's hospital discharge planning group, comprised of service providers and health care providers, has successfully implemented discharge protocols for homeless patients to regional providers such as Cobb Douglas CSB and MUST Ministries. DCA participates via GHFA S+C programs in Cherokee and Douglas County. MUST is considering protocols for respite care and housing the medically fragile utilizing S+C funds. Mental Health: To prevent institutional discharge to streets and shelters, DCA and DHR have developed protocols to connect DCA Section 8 vouchers (available in 149 counties) with DHR MH, AD and DD services primarily for persons exiting institutions (where they have been there longer than 30 days). This program began about two years ago with the reservation of approximately 300 vouchers. During the past year, this reservation was increased to 400 vouchers. To date 280 persons have active vouchers, and most of the vouchers are being utilized by consumers exiting institutions with severe and persistent mental illness. The Georgia Department of Community Affairs (DCA) launched a new housing search web site, GeorgiaHousingSearch.org, with the goal of improving efficiency and access to affordable housing across the state. Discharge planners for institutionalized persons, service providers for the homeless, as well as the general public, can use this service to find rental housing units based on price, numbers of bedrooms, available amenities, access to mass transportation, and accessibility features available. By the end of 2006, the web site had 36,785 units listed and averaged 3,300 searches per day. DCA developed language for the Qualified Application Plan (QAP) for tax credit housing which would give developers an incentive to develop units targeted to special needs tenants, including persons discharged from mental health institutions. Public hearings were GA Balance of State CoC, GA-501 Page 55 Chart O Form HUD-40090-1 Mental Health, continued held on the proposed QAP in 2006 and those provisions were included for 2007. DCA also allocated up to 50 project-based Housing Choice Vouchers for these set-aside units that will be allocated to the highest scoring applications receiving a tax credit award.Two new supportive housing facilities opened their doors to residents in 2006 Maxwell House in Augusta (serving the region) and The Pines in Valdosta. Both projects were funded using DCA's Permanent Supportive Housing Program. The Pines includes Section 8 vouchers for all residents. During 2006, DCA continued to provide direct technical assistance to eight potential applicants working to create permanent supportive housing in Georgia through this program. DCA is establishing (with state resources) a new technical assistance training program that will feature professional training and certification for housing-based supportive services providers. Curriculum and certification protocols will be developed by MH professionals from best practices around the state and nation; including Georgia's successful "Peer Support" program and the "Person Centered Planning" protocols established by CUCS a HUD TA provider. DHR is currently reducing the restrictions on the qualification of application for "Community Support Individual (CSI)" funding. This way, smaller nonprofits and faith based organizations will be eligible to receive direct funding from DHR to provide housing supports, even if they continue to rely upon community mental health agencies for professional mental health care. Corrections: DCA, State Pardons and Paroles, state Corrections and the state Criminal Justice Coordinating Council (CJCC) have jointly implemented the "Re-Entry Housing Partnership" (RHP) program. DCA is the lead fiscal agent. Pardons and Paroles has hired a full-time discharge planner for the program. Using state funds, RHP designed to assist `job ready' parolees with housing placement, meals and services in the absence of stable family, friends or resources for housing at the time of parole. Inappropriate discharge of parolees that often lead directly to homelessness are avoided. In the past year, 133 parolees have been placed state-wide and $4 MD in prison costs has been avoided. The DHR Divisions of Family and Children Services (DFCS) and MH/SA have also formed a collaborative with Department of Corrections (DOC) with the goal of reducing homelessness and recidivism for the re-entry populations. DFCS staff currently provides education to staff and inmates at three state prisons that house female populations. Appointments for DFCS services are scheduled for referred inmates shortly after their release. DHR's Child Support Services Fatherhood Initiative is currently working with the male transitions centers. The DHR Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) is working to break the cycle of homelessness. A new initiative trains police officers to support pre-booking diversion of persons with SMI into treatment. This way, persons retain their housing without cycling through jails/prisons and back onto the street. The National Alliance on MH (NAMI) is a primary partner. To date, 75 jurisdictions and 1100 officers have been trained. DHR, the Criminal Justice Coordinating Council and DCA have developed protocols for proactive intervention with specific "forensic behavioral health" populations. The focus of this effort is to prevent the cycle of instability that leads to un-necessary homelessness, arrest, incarceration, and/or discharge planning (the `revolving door').

Research activities GA Balance of State CoC, GA501 Page 63 3 Chart U Form HUD-40090-1 U: CoC Achievements Chart (Cont) Briefly explain the reasons for not meeting one or more of your proposed measurable achievements. While the Balance of State CoC's performance on the employment goal far exceeded HUD's minimum goal, it did fall short of our 40%. A meeting with the Homeless Advisory Council this year indicated that agency personnel felt that they could do an even better job if they could develop closer working relationships with local Georgia Department of Labor and education and training providers focused on employment opportunities for homeless persons; additionally DCA has recently identified an employment curriculum that will be made available to housing/service providers. 100% HMIS coverage for all non-DV shelter, TH, and PH beds does not appear to be attainable because: 1. Not all providers are McKinney funded, and 2. From year to year, there are gains and losses in beds. As a result, new providers have to be facilitated into the HMIS partnership. OPTIONAL: In addition to three developments placed in service in 2006 (see accomplishments for Goal 1), an additional 5 developments are under development or being underwritten. DCA also revised the Qualified Allocation Plan for Georgia's low income housing tax credit developments to require an emphasis on special needs housing and housing for chronically housing. 50 housing choice vouchers have been allocated for those units. 250 front line case managers from Georgia's Department of Human Services have participated in SOAR training to learn to assist homeless individuals with disability applications; the program will expand in 2007 GeorgiaHousingSearch.org provides a searchable data base of affordable housing units accessible by service providers for the homeless, as well as the general public. By the end of 2006, the site had almost 37,000 units listed and averaged 3,300 searches per day.

It should be noted that we now have a research project underway with Kennesaw State University a joint collaborative between their research and statistics departments. They have been discussing methodologies with HUD-contracted researchers and are now devising a model to produce better state-wide numbers using a reliable sample of sheltered and unsheltered counts. New counts will test the model in the summer of 2007. The complete model will then dictate the sample size and location for January 2008. As a result, improved if not statistically reliable - numbers will be available for the 2008 GA BoS CoC. 2.

Does your state, either in its planning and zoning enabling legislation or in any other legislation, require localities regulating development have a comprehensive plan with a "housing element?" If no, skip to question # 4 No Yes 2. Does you state require that a local jurisdiction's comprehensive plan estimate current and anticipated housing needs, taking into account the No Yes anticipated growth of the region, for existing and future residents, including low, moderate, and middle income families, for at least the next five years? 3. Does your state's zoning enabling legislation require that a local jurisdiction's zoning ordinance have a) sufficient land use and density No Yes categories (multifamily housing, duplexes, small lot homes and other similar elements); and, b) sufficient land zoned or mapped in these categories, that can permit the building of affordable housing that addresses the needs identified in the comprehensive plan? 4. Does your state have an agency or office that includes a specific mission to determine whether local governments have policies or procedures that are raising costs or otherwise discouraging affordable housing? No Yes 5. Does your state have a legal or administrative requirement that local governments undertake periodic self-evaluation of regulations and processes to assess their impact upon housing affordability address these barriers to affordability? No Yes 6. Does your state have a technical assistance or education program for local jurisdictions that includes assisting them in identifying regulatory barriers and in recommending strategies to local governments for their removal? No Yes 7. Does your state have specific enabling legislation for local impact fees? If no skip to question #9. No Yes GA Balance of State CoC, GA-501 Page 70 Barriers Questionnaire 8. If yes to the question #7, does the state statute provide criteria that sets standards for the allowable type of capital investments that have a direct No Yes relationship between the fee and the development (nexus) and a method for fee calculation? 9. Does your state provide significant financial assistance to local governments for housing, community development and/or transportation that includes funding prioritization or linking funding on the basis of local regulatory barrier removal activities? No Yes 10. Does your state have a mandatory state-wide building code that a) does not permit local technical amendments and b) uses a recent version (i.e. published within the last five years or, if no recent version has been published, the last version published) of one of the nationally recognized model building codes (i.e. the International Code Council (ICC), the Building Officials and Code Administrators International (BOCA), the Southern Building Code Congress International (SBCI), the International Conference of Building Officials (ICBO), the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)) without significant technical amendment or modification? No Yes Alternatively, if the state has made significant technical amendment to the model code, can the state supply supporting data that the amendments do not negatively impact affordability? 11. Has your jurisdiction adopted specific building code language regarding housing rehabilitation that encourages such rehabilitation through gradated No Yes regulatory requirements applicable as different levels of work are performed in existing buildings? Such code language increases regulatory requirements (the additional improvements required as a matter of regulatory policy) in proportion to the extent of rehabilitation that an owner/developer chooses to do on a voluntary basis.
