Johnson County puts forth a Request for Proposal (RFP) for Permanent Supportive Housing designed for households with children, that reduce barriers to housing and promote housing stability. Donor Name: Johnson County State: Iowa County: Johnson County (IA) Type of Grant: Grant Deadline: 05/20/2024 Size of the Grant: $100,000 to $500,000 Grant Duration: 1 Year Details: The program shall provide trauma-informed, culturally responsive, inter-disciplinary services that effectively engage families with complex needs. Services must be comprehensive, coordinated, readily accessible, and family centered. This RFP seeks bids that demonstrate racial equity in providing the proposed services. Permanent Supportive Housing is an intervention that combines affordable housing with voluntary support services to address the needs of households experiencing repeated and chronic homelessness. Access to affordable housing is a strong indicator of whether families living in poverty will experience homelessness. At times, some families experience long episodes of homelessness and return to homelessness even after being rehoused. These households face multiple barriers to housing stability including living in poverty, brain health disorders, substance use, or other chronic health conditions. Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) is a successful model in providing housing stability for many families experiencing long-term homelessness and often leads to other positive outcomes. Funding Information Up to $220,000 will be awarded under this RFP annually with renewal for up to three years. Contract Term July 1, 2024 – June 30, 2025. Priority Target Population  Through this RFP, Johnson County is requesting submissions of proposals from organizations interested in providing support services in combination with rental assistance to families who experience repeated and/or chronic homelessness and who have incomes at or below 30% area median income as defined by HUD at the time of entering housing. Project plans should describe the needs for this population within Johnson County. Eligible Organizations Nonprofit organizations providing services in and for Johnson County residents.
