Johnson County is issuing a Request for Proposal (RFP) for Permanent Supportive Housing, specifically designed for households with children. The program aims to reduce barriers to housing and promote housing stability through trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and interdisciplinary services. These services must effectively engage families with complex needs, being comprehensive, coordinated, readily accessible, and family-centered. A key focus of this RFP is to demonstrate racial equity in the provision of proposed services, aligning with a mission to address systemic inequalities in housing access and stability. The target beneficiaries for this program are families experiencing repeated and/or chronic homelessness, with incomes at or below 30% of the area median income as defined by HUD at the time of entering housing. This population often faces multiple barriers to housing stability, including poverty, brain health disorders, substance use, and other chronic health conditions. The program's impact goals are to provide housing stability for these families, ultimately leading to other positive outcomes beyond just housing, such as improved health and overall well-being. The program prioritizes a Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) model, which combines affordable housing with voluntary support services. This intervention is a proven successful model in providing housing stability for families experiencing long-term homelessness. The expected outcomes include a reduction in repeated and chronic homelessness for the target population, as well as improved housing stability. Measurable results would likely include tracking the number of families housed, the length of time families remain housed, and improvements in associated social and health indicators. Funding of up to $220,000 will be awarded annually under this RFP, with the possibility of renewal for up to three years. The contract term is from July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2025. Eligible organizations are nonprofit organizations providing services in and for Johnson County residents. This initiative reflects a strategic priority of Johnson County to support its vulnerable populations through a comprehensive and equity-focused approach to housing, embodying a theory of change that by providing stable housing and robust support services, long-term homelessness can be effectively combated and families can achieve greater overall well-being.

THIS IS NOT A NOTICE OF FUNDING. THIS IS A GENERAL FORECAST ONLY. GPD Grants Introduction The GPD Program is VAs largest transitional housing program for Veterans experiencing homelessness and is permanently authorized under Public Law 109-461. Since 1994, the GPD Program has awarded grants to community-based organizations to provide transitional housing with wraparound supportive services to assist vulnerable Veterans move into permanent housing. The grants are designed to meet Veterans at various stages as they move to stable housing. Community-based organizations receiving GPD grants offer focused transitional housing services through a variety of housing models targeted to different populations and needs of Veterans. The GPD program plays a vital role in the continuum of homeless services by providing supportive services to those Veterans who would otherwise be among the unsheltered homeless population. The result of GPD programs is that Veterans achieve residential stability, increase their skill levels and/or income and obtain greater self-determination. Types of GPD Grants Transitional housing grants: Per Diem Only (PDO) grants provide funding in the form of per diem payments to reimburse grantees for the cost of care provided to Veterans in transitional supportive housing. Special Need grants target housing and services to specific populations of Veterans (e.g., women, Veterans with chronic mental illness, frail elderly Veterans, Veterans caring for minor dependents, terminally ill Veterans). Transition-In-Place (TIP) grants offer Veteran residents housing in which supportive services transition out of the residence over time, rather than the resident. Upon completion of the TIP services, the resident retains the unit as their permanent housing with no requirement to move. Other types of grants: Case Management grants support Veterans who were previously experiencing homelessness or who are at risk for homelessness so that they may obtain or retain permanent housing. Capital grants support the costs of acquiring, renovating or constructing facilities and are only offered intermittently to improve existing facilities or to develop new transitional housing depending on the needs of the Department and funding availability. Lists of current grantees are available on the GPD website. How to Apply for GPD Funding Not all grant types are available annually.

The Rural and Underserved Clinical Rotations (RUCR) grant program, authorized by Minnesota Statutes Sec 144.1505, aims to enhance health professional training by funding eligible physician, physician assistant, advanced practice registered nurse, pharmacy, dentistry, dental therapy, and mental health professional programs. The core mission is to augment existing clinical training to include rural and underserved rotations or specialized training experiences like credential or certificate rural tracks. This initiative aligns with a broader strategic priority to improve healthcare access and quality in Minnesota's rural and underserved communities by strengthening the pipeline of healthcare professionals willing and trained to serve in these areas. The target beneficiaries of this grant program are healthcare training programs located in Minnesota, and, by extension, the students enrolled in these programs who will gain critical experience in rural and underserved settings. Ultimately, the program seeks to impact the healthcare landscape of Minnesota by increasing the availability of primary care and mental health services in areas that currently face shortages. The grant's focus is on expanding training opportunities, facilitating recruitment and retention of students and faculty, and connecting students with appropriate clinical training sites. Key priorities and focuses include establishing or expanding rotations and clinical training, supporting recruitment, training, and retention of students and faculty, and facilitating connections between students and clinical training sites, internships, practicums, or externship activities. Emphasis is also placed on travel and lodging for students, faculty, student, and preceptor salaries, incentives, or other financial support, and the development and implementation of cultural competency training. For physician and dentist training, a specific requirement is that expanded training must involve rotations in primary care settings within rural communities. Expected outcomes and measurable results include MDH anticipating awarding $1,500,000 through approximately 4-6 grants, with an estimated award maximum of $400,000 per grant. The grant duration is 1 year, from September 1, 2024, to August 31, 2025. The success of the program will likely be measured by the number of new or expanded rural and underserved rotations established, the number of students participating in these experiences, and the subsequent impact on the availability of healthcare professionals in targeted communities. This reflects a theory of change where targeted investment in training infrastructure and student support will directly lead to a more robust and equitably distributed healthcare workforce.
