The Alliance’s Housing Fund provides capital funds for building, renovating, and furnishing permanent housing units, as well as establishing recuperative care facilities and short-term post-hospitalization housing units. This initiative operates across the Alliance's service area, reflecting a core belief that "housing is health care." The program directly aligns with the foundation's mission to improve health outcomes by addressing social determinants of health, particularly stable housing, for Medi-Cal members. The primary beneficiaries of this grant program are Medi-Cal members residing in the Alliance’s service areas. The fund aims to expand both temporary and permanent housing opportunities, directly impacting individuals who require stable living conditions for improved health and recovery. The overarching impact goal is to enhance the health and well-being of Medi-Cal members by providing access to safe and appropriate housing solutions. The grant prioritizes projects in Mariposa, Merced, Monterey, San Benito, and Santa Cruz counties, which are the specific areas where Letters of Intent (LOIs) are currently being accepted. This is a one-time funding opportunity with a focus on projects that can be completed within a maximum timeline of 39 months. The program's strategic focus is on expanding housing access to address health disparities within these communities. Expected outcomes include an increase in the number of available permanent housing units, recuperative care facilities, and post-hospitalization housing options. Measurable results will likely be tracked through the number of units developed or renovated, the number of individuals served, and the duration of project completion within the 39-month timeframe. The foundation's theory of change posits that by investing in housing, they can directly contribute to better health outcomes and reduce healthcare costs for Medi-Cal members.
