With these activities we will work to ensure services are low-barrier and accessible; help participants identify and resolve barriers to housing; assist them to resolve their housing crisis before focusing on other non-housing related services; allow participants to choose the services and housing that meets their needs; connect participants to appropriate services and offer financial assistance initially at a minimum level and adding as needed through progressive engagement. 5Cities Homeless Coalition is the key rapid rehousing and homeless prevention provider in San Luis Obispo County, collaborating with agencies throughout the county to provide housing stabilization service, deposit and rental assistance to those moving into permanent housing or those at-risk of homelessness. During this past year we have been especially concerned about populations that are “falling through the cracks” for traditional federal funding. As expected, 5CHC is currently seeing the fallout of the COVID Rent Relief program after tenant protections expired in June 2022. Many households were unprepared for the program to end, did not request sufficient funds, did not complete their application, or submit an appeal if their application was denied due to insufficient documentation. Many of these households are currently at risk of losing their housing or have recently found themselves homeless as a result. Consistent with our programs funded through federal sources, we seek to provide assistance to low-income immigrant families and others who do not qualify or for expenses that are not covered through other federal assistance programs. Additionally, 5CHC has seen an increase in requests for Rapid Re-housing assistance. With new low-income housing or voucher opportunities coming available, 5CHC seeks to assist those on limited fixed incomes to move into permanent housing. Services will include deposit assistance, limited rental assistance, and housing stabilization services including move-in assistance, utility assistance, etc. Clients will receive similar case management assistance as provided through ESG and CDBG, including budgeting and financial management training, identification of community resources, etc. (refer back to “Funding Decisions” Section on page 1 on the directions) Resources from this grant will be allocated to low-income residents of San Luis Obispo, who do not otherwise qualify for support from other funding grants. Specifically, residents will be provided financial assistance for housing application fees, deposit and rent to either obtain or retain their housing, coupled with case management support, and data management (HMIS). 5CHC has developed a reputation of working with our community partners as “the problem solver” and are known for thinking out of the box, being flexible and finding ways to say “yes,” when traditional funding is limited. Support through grants such as these, enables us to work with low-income residents throughout the community including those who might not otherwise qualify for traditional funding support or for whom their financial need is not a “qualifying expense.” DocuSign Envelope ID: 7A0DE7F7-5240-4241-807F-7EBC64AE1E79 Page 14 of 279 How will your program and the citize ns of San Luis Obispo be ne fit as a re sult of this grant?* The HRC has ide ntifie d the ir main funding priority as: Home le ss pre v e ntion including affordable and alte rnativ e housing, supportiv e se rv ice s and transitional housing.

From what type of source s? 5CHC engages with a broad spectrum of community partners to assist those needing housing assistance. In particular 5CHC, ECHO and CAPSLO, as part of the coordinated entry system. However, with the influx of COVID funding the last two years, 5CHC has built an even more extensive referral network consisting over more than 10 partner agencies, including CAPSLO, ECHO, Transition Mental Health Association, the Housing Authority of San Luis Obispo, Lumina Alliance, San Luis Obispo Legal Assistance Foundation, and Family Resource Centers throughout the County. 5CHC has become the hub for Rapid Re- housing and Homeless Prevention services, serving clients from San Miguel to Cambria to Nipomo with the help of our partners. This referral network has allowed us to maximize our resources, coordinate efforts, and avoid duplication of services and benefits. 5CHC also remains a key partner in the California Covid Relief Rental Program, seeking to provide rent and assistance to those affected by COVID. This is just one of 18 grants currently being managed by 5CHC for rapid re-housing and homeless prevention services. 5CHC historically has maintained a better than 90% success rate in keeping people in their homes more than one-year after program exit. While Five Cities is in our name, 5Cities Homeless Coalition provides rapid re-housing and homeless prevention services countywide, including to the residents of San Luis Obispo. City of SLO residents make up about 17% of our clients in this program. In 2022 we provided move-in assistance including case management to 18 SLO households, with more than $53,000 in direct financial assistance; all but 2 of these referrals came directly from 40Prado. Additionally, we helped 36 households with homeless prevention rental assistance payments for a total of $106,415.

Our vision is that all youth achieve their full potential. BBBS SLO’s evidence-based, best practice mentoring program supports long-term, positive changes for the vulnerable children and youth we serve, supporting the City’s priority for supportive, developmental, and care services for children and youth in need. The program reaches diverse populations as well. One-to-one, adult to child mentoring is provided through both Community-Based and Site-Based (school site) programs and an average of 35% of program participants are residents of the City of San Luis Obispo. The demand for BBBS SLO’s mentoring programs continually outpaces available volunteers; this award will offset costs to recruit, train, and support adult volunteers as well as staff time to create and support effective matches for children and youth in both programs. The number of children and youth BBBS SLO is able to support is directly tied to the amount of funding we receive, with an estimated cost of $2,850 for each match.

Littles are referred to the program as a result of difficulties in school, w/relationships, mental health challenges, or may be a child whose family wants them to have other adult role models. Prior to starting the match, all Bigs complete a background check and receive extensive training facilitated by BBBS SLO staff. Staff meet w/Littles, their family, and the Bigs to assess interests and identify goals for the program. Bigs make a one-year commitment w/their Little and spend 6-8 hours monthly w/them. BBBS SLO staff support the matches throughout the match w/regular, individual case management check-ins for the child, volunteer, and parent/guardian to ensure the match is on track and the family has the resources needed to thrive. Site Based Program: For this program, the Bigs are high school/college students who meet w/elementary age Littles for weekly supervised group/individual activities, facilitated by BBBS SLO staff. This program provides wonderful leadership opportunities for the Bigs, plus mentoring support for the Littles and as a result serves two children w/one match. Elementary Schools: Pacheco Elementary, 261 Cuesta Dr., San Luis Obispo; Hawthorne Elementary, 2125 Story St., San Luis Obispo, 93401. Both programs address academic achievement/educational advancement to help move families out of poverty toward a financially sustainability, social/emotional development, and reduction/elimination of risky behaviors such as skipping school, substance use (tobacco/drugs/alcohol), positive relationships, violence/gangs, and positive mental health. (refer back to “Funding Decisions” Section on page 1 on the directions) The City’s Human Service’s award will offset staff time to recruit, train, and manage adult volunteers or Bigs, receive and assess referrals to the program, meet with families and Littles, collaborate with schools to receive referrals and provide the Site-Based program, create mentoring matches, provide weekly activities at two City of SLO school sites, provide monthly guided activities for Community-Based matches, provide ongoing support for the matches, including referrals for families to other supportive services, and assist in evaluating the programs. The $15,000 from the City of San Luis Obispo will allow BBBS SLO to support a total of (85) at-risk children and youth, 50 high school Bigs receiving leadership skills, all are residents of the City, including 50 Site-Based matches (20 existing and 30 new), and 30 existing and five new Community-Based matches, during the award period. 1.

Every child has unique interests, and to that end, BBBS SLO staff works to provide interesting and engaging group activities for our Bigs and Littles to enjoy with other matches in the Community-Based program. We emphasize educational and career exploration activities such as The Pad Climbing Gym, the SLO Bike Kitchen – Earn a Bike Program, tickets to the ballet and other PAC events, Central Coast Aquarium, sporting events at Cal Poly, coastal clean-up day, swimming programs and more. BBBS SLO staff sends weekly activity opportunities introducing new and creative ways for matches to spend time together to keep their relationships strong. While children continue to struggle with the many negative impacts of the pandemic, these mentor relationships, proven to be effective, are critical for the children’s well- being. The BBBS SLO programs will help slow the gaps in social and emotional development and education attainment that all children are experiencing during these challenging times. In addition to creating matches that support children and youth, BBBS SLO also provides referrals if indicated, to the family including food, behavioral health services, shelter, clothing, medical, and other supportive services, to help parents have the resources and tools they need to fully support their family. Finally, BBBS SLO provides curriculum as part of training and activities that addresses bullying prevention, accepting and supporting diversity, including children and youth that identify as LGBTQ+, and/or are a student of color, and/or are a recent immigrant, have English as a second language, and other diverse populations. In all activities, acceptance of others, kindness, and tolerance is emphasized. BBBS SLO staff are themselves diverse and representative of the San Luis Obispo community. BBBS SLO collaborates extensively in our community serve families in our program as well as reduce duplication of effort. To ensure we are reaching children and youth most at risk, BBBS SLO collaborates with many other agencies in San Luis Obispo – including ECHO, YouthWorks (PRHA), Boys and Girls Clubs, SAFE teams, SLO County Behavioral Health and Social Services, law enforcement, shelters, schools, faith communities, and nonprofits. BBBS SLO staff collaborate closely with staff at all sites for our school-based program to identify children who are struggling that may benefit from our program to recruit participants, recruit high school mentors, and schedule activities. Finally, BBBS SLO staff cross refer clients to local non-profits including Family Resource Centers and The LINK, the Food Bank and pantries, CASA, Community Counseling Center, CAPSLO, RISE, Stand Strong, Noor Foundation, Family Care Network, Children’s Resource Network, Jack’s Helping Hands, Restorative Partners, HASLO and the Paso Robles Housing Authority, YMCA and Boys and Girls Clubs. These partnerships have been invaluable as our families struggle with continued economic difficulty. Our staff always go above and beyond to support the Littles and connect their families to other services that can help them in a variety of ways.

Providing programs that allow children and youth to excel in school, set goals, and avoid negative behaviors has tremendous positive benefit. Not only does it save costs from a reduced need for school interventions, social services, juvenile justice, and similar, successful youth go on to graduate and become contributors to the City. BBBS SLO is proud to say 100% of the high school seniors in our program graduated high school in June 2022, and 90% went on to continue their educations in college or trade school. Nearly half (49%) of children in our program come from single parent homes, and nearly 70% report that they are participating in the school lunch programs, indicating they are low-income. Children are recommended for the program by school staff, social services, therapists and counselors, parents, foster parents, and other adults who see the child’s need for a mentor, indicated by failing grades, difficulty with social interaction with peers and/or family members, or other behaviors. These children are most at-risk to continue in a cycle of poverty fostered by low confidence and aspirations, unhealthy relationships, risky behaviors and a poor education. Big Brothers Big Sisters is a prevention program. Children facing adverse home and/or school situations have many challenges that they face that lead to mental health, juvenile justice, and other negative impacts. Providing a mentor for one year costs our agency $2,850 annually, compared to $252,000 for juvenile incarceration in SLO County. (*Tucker/Palomino 2019, April 26 -- Vanishing Violence: Juvenile Hall Costs Skyrocket. SFChronicle.com). This cost does not include mental health services (such as therapy, drug and alcohol rehab, school counselors, school psychologists, county behavioral health, and social workers), Juvenile Justice (police, school resource officers, juvenile hall, probation, lawyers, and judges) and parent time off work when needed, all roughly estimated by BBBS SLO to be $1,040,000. A MarketWired July 16, 2013 article in the Wall Street Journal, “Investing in Kids' Futures Pays Off in Hard Dollars” stated that every dollar invested in Big Brothers Big Sisters mentoring generates $18 in social return on investment. Big Brothers Big Sisters effectively breaks the cycle of poverty to create generational change, which has long- term, positive effects for the City of San Luis Obispo and its citizens.

City Farm SLO’s Youth Empowerment Program (YEP) helps local, underserved teens build career and college readiness skills through technical agricultural instruction, bilingual workshops, and summer internships. Workshops are led by instructors trained in youth empowerment strategies and cover these topics: health and wellness, financial literacy, goal setting, resume building, leadership, public speaking, and DE&I in agriculture. Upon graduation, students can apply for a paid summer internship at City Farm SLO. YEP was piloted in April 2021 and has graduated 5 cohorts and 62 students to date. (By the end of the 2022-2023 Grant Cycle, YEP will have graduated 8 cohorts and 98 students.) As a result of YEP, 89% of students reported feeling better equipped to make healthy choices and 100% of students report feeling more prepared for employment opportunities. In the Summer of 2024, YEP will provide 1,500 individual instruction hours to 38 teens. 5,000 pounds of produce will be delivered to the SLO Food Bank as a result of programming, impacting thousands of residents.

Other program supporters include the County of San Luis Obispo, the SLO Community Foundation, the Sprouts Foundation, the Jewish Community Foundation, and individual donors. Food insecurity affects 37% of San Luis Obispo County’s low-income households. City Farm SLO property is surrounded by a disadvantaged community (DAC) (2014 - 2018 census data). Low-income communities (AB1550, 2022 data) communities mapped according to CalEnviroscreen 4.1 share the same tract numbers as the priority areas this project will provide benefits to. Disparities in food access are exacerbated by income and race. In 2016, 3.8% of the overall population surveyed and 11.2% of Spanish-speaking individuals in SLO County went without food (Action for Healthy Communities Telephone Survey, 2016). At the same time, SLO County is experiencing a shortage of young people entering the agricultural workforce as laborers, managers, and entrepreneurs as documented by a 2014 Food System Assessment. YEP’s purpose is to address local disparities in access to opportunities by providing exceptional enrichment and leadership development experiences for teens in marginalized communities. City Farm SLO partners with other local agencies (Peoples’ Self-Help Housing, San Luis Coastal Unified School District, SLOCOE Youth Workforce Development, County of SLO Behavioral Health Department) to recruit teens that identify as racial/ethnic minority or low-income household status. (refer back to “Funding Decisions” Section on page 1 on the directions) Student Stipends - $7,200 Summer Intern Scholarships - $3,600 Student Food & Beverage - $2,880 Tools & Materials - $1,320 City Farm SLO offers impactful youth education programs to empower the next generation to live healthier, more prosperous lives. City Farm SLO’s “Farm Class” has been offered in partnership with Pacific Beach High School since 2014 and includes twice-weekly farm-based lessons and hands-on instruction to equip continuation high school students with skills for successful careers. In 2022-23, we will provide 936 individual instruction hours to 48 students. Our Farm Field Trip Program commenced in 2018 with approximately 350 students visiting the farm. We more than doubled that number to 710 the following year. In light of COVID-19 restrictions in 2020, we pivoted to a virtual field trip platform, reaching 20 schools throughout SLO County and more than 925 students. In 2022- 2023, we expect to reach 5,000 students with in-person and virtual field trips. Field trip curricula are precisely aligned with CA Common Core and Next Generation Science Standards. Weekly Therapeutic Horticulture programming is offered in partnership with SLCUSD for students with disabilities. City Farm SLO’s youth education programs offer an intimate, engaging, and comprehensive opportunity to learn and work on a sustainable urban farm – an experience that is unlike any other available in SLO County. All programs are centered on regenerative agriculture practices to grow the next generation of environmentalists, scientists, sustainable farmers, and change-makers.

City Farm SLO’s programs are centered on partnerships, leveraging existing efforts to bring the most benefit to the community. All nutrition education initiatives and curriculum development are carried out in partnership with the County of San Luis Obispo Public Health Department’s Community Wellness Team. Farm Field Trips are a complement and extension to our partners at One Cool Earth, who work to bring school gardens into every school in SLO County. Our curricula have been developed in collaboration with One Cool Earth Educators. Our Therapeutic Horticulture classes are offered in direct partnership with San Luis Coastal Unified School District’s PREPARE Program. City Farm SLO staff collaborate with PREPARE instructors to lead sessions. Our Farm Class is offered in direct partnership with Pacific Beach High School (PBHS). PBHS funds the salaries of two teachers who accompany and work with students on all farm programs. Produce harvested during educational sessions is distributed to partners: Food Bank Coalition of SLO, Salvation Army Food Pantry, and SLCUSD Food Service. City Farm SLO is a carbon-farming partner in the City of SLO’s Climate Action Plan, and as such has reconfigured cropland of the school garden and changed cultivation methods to educate students about regenerative farming practices. Currently City Farm SLO staff are exploring new opportunities for partnership with San Luis Obispo County Office of Education’s Youth Workforce Development Program, the County of San Luis Obispo’s Youth Substance Use Treatment Program, and Restorative Partners. All 3 agencies will provide referrals to YEP for youth that qualify and will offer other aligned and supportive services. As a result of YEP: 89% of students report that they are better equipped to make healthy choices; 91% of students report eating more fruits and vegetables, 100% of students report being more physically active; 100% of students report that they are more prepared for employment; 100% of students report that they are better at setting goals; and 100% of students report that they feel more optimistic about their futures. Our local agricultural community needs strong leaders to address its many challenges. Every young person, no matter their background or circumstance, should have the opportunity to be that leader. Fully funded, 2023-2024 YEP will empower 38 teens with training and skills to improve their health, increase their resilience, and become leaders in sustainable and regenerative farming. In doing so, more than 5,000 lbs of fresh produce will be distributed to community members in need – impacting hundreds of households in the City of SLO.

The Community Action Partnership of San Luis Obispo County, Inc, (CAPSLO) Homeless Prevention/Stable Housing Program provides emergency financial assistance to residents in households in the City of San Luis Obispo (SLO) that are at risk of being evicted and need help with a rental payment, or who need support securing housing with first month’s rent and/or a security deposit. Individuals provided with financial assistance are those who can demonstrate their ability to maintain rent beyond the subsidy and are willing to participate in case management for six months (to further ensure continued success). Case managers work with candidates to develop and maintain a realistic post-housed budget and connect them to community resources to obtain additional assistance including food, clothing, job training and more. In addition, individuals are encouraged to utilize the 40 Prado Homeless Services Center for meals, primary medical care, and other supportive day services.

Since rents continue to increase and landlords are requiring up to three month’s rent to move in, additional funding is needed. Although Cares Act housing assistance received by the County can be applied to those who have been affected by COVID-19, this grant will provide assistance for those individuals whose homelessness or risk of homelessness is not due to COVID- 19. Clients are screened to establish which individuals have the greatest need. Individuals who experience unexpected setbacks caused by illness, loss of a job, or other sudden circumstances beyond their control are considered qualified if they are also income-eligible (under 200% of the Federal Poverty Income Guidelines). For eviction prevention assistance (one month’s rent), clients must provide proof of emergency need: rent payment is in arrears or due within five days, or they must provide an eviction notice from the landlord. To secure housing through first month’s rent or security deposit, the household is living in an emergency shelter, a car, or a motel. They must participate in the Case Management program and show that they can afford the monthly rent once housed. Checks are mailed directly to the landlord or given to the case manager to personally deliver to the landlord. (refer back to “Funding Decisions” Section on page 1 on the directions) The majority of the funding ($9,259) will be used for financial assistance payments to cover rent or security deposits for low-income City of San Luis Obispo households who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. As mentioned above, payments will be made directly to the landlord. The remaining funds ($741) will be used for agency indirect costs at a federally approved 8% rate. CAPSLO has successfully provided homeless services in San Luis Obispo County for 34 years. The 40 Prado Homeless Services Center in San Luis Obispo achieves the agency’s mission of empowering individuals to attain self-sufficiency through strategic programming to meet community needs, integrated services, and collaboration. The 40 Prado Homeless Services Center offers 24/7 emergency shelter services, meals, showers, , health screenings at the CHC on-site clinic, services to dual diagnosed individuals, recuperative care for those recently released from the hospital, a warming center, animal kennels, a community garden, internet access, a mail and message center to facilitate job and housing searches, and safe parking to homeless individuals and families. CAPSLO’s Head Start program offers the “Home Based” family education and support program for parents of toddlers at the shelter. These comprehensive on-site services are provided by agency staff, volunteers (pandemic guidelines permitting), and community partners. An example of collaboration that exists with CAPSLO’s Homeless Services Case Management is the Coordinated Entry Program with 5Cities Homeless Coalition (5CHC) and El Camino Homeless Organization (ECHO). CAPSLO focuses on serving individuals and families in the City of San Luis Obispo, while 5CHC serves the South County and ECHO serves the North County. The three agencies enter client data into CAPSLO’s shared database using a common screening form to avoid service duplication. All of SLO County is covered through this partnership, and homeless individuals as well as those on the verge of homelessness have access to services regardless of their location, and are appropriately referred. Other local agencies collaborating with CAPSLO at 40 Prado are Dignity Health, Tenet Health, Community Counseling Center, CenCal Health, Restorative Partners, Legal Assistance Foundation, Middlehouse, and Casa Solana.

Benefit to Homeless Prevention program: Human Services Grant funding will help prevent individuals living in the City of SLO that are in danger of becoming homeless, or homeless individuals with a last known address in the City of SLO that are living in their car, motel, or at an emergency shelter. These funds will be used to provide rental assistance to individuals and families at immediate risk of losing their housing, or those who are working to obtain housing but don’t have the funds for a security deposit and/or first month’s rent through case management. Grants-in-Aid (GIA) funding is essential to house or keep housed individuals and families who would otherwise end up on the street. Benefits to Citizens of San Luis Obispo: Although participants come to 40 Prado from all areas of the county, Human Services Grant funds will only be used for City of San Luis Obispo residents who are at imminent risk of homelessness. The City of San Luis Obispo benefits from the Homeless Prevention program by decreasing the number of people who are at-risk of homelessness and are looking for stable housing. This reduces the strain on community resources and the limited number of rentals.

Case Management had a net increase of funds of $35,000 for emergency housing. Supportive Services for Veteran Families funding increased by $1.2 million. CARES Act Funding decreased $2.3 million from the prior year.

SLCUSD connects them with CAPSLO’s Services Affirming Family Empowerment (SAFE) program, which employs a full-time, bilingual Family Advocate on campus at the SLCUSD San Luis Obispo (SLO) Family Resource Center. The Family Advocate coordinates referrals and provides support such as school enrollment, case management, medical services coordination, housing searches, legal resources, mental health services coordination, summer activity enrollment, and more. The SAFE Family Advocate conducts needs assessments, assists in the development and monitoring of case plans, provides additional early intervention, and connects the families , as needed, with housing services at 40 Prado Homeless Services Center. The Family Advocate position is co-funded by SLCUSD for the school year only. Funding is needed to provide services for homeless families and unaccompanied youth in SLO year-round. Please describe your grant request in detail (max 250 words ) Grant funds will be used to support a portion of a full -time SAFE Family Advocate, who will provide services to SLCUSD homeless students’ families and unaccompanied youth in the City of SLO when school is not in session. When necessary, the SAFE Family Advocate is able to act as a mobile Family Resource Center by going to individual school sites or directly to the families and unaccompanied youth rather than being solely located at one physical location. The concept of “mobile family support” has been facilitated by providing the Family Advocate with a cell phone, laptop, and portable Wi -Fi hotspot during the pandemic. The SAFE Family Advocate coordinates support services with CAPSLO’s 40 Prado Homeless Services Center and with other community agencies, such as the Food Bank Coalition, Community Counseling Center, and the Assistance League for clothing. The Family Advocate is bilingual and bicultural in order to maximize access to services for monolingual clients, who often experience barriers due to language limitations. When providing case management, the SAFE Family Advo cate assesses needs and monitors progress using a self-sufficiency matrix, to ensure progress toward family stability. The need for continuing case management and community support for homeless students’ families and unaccompanied youth occur year-round, not just when school is in session. By funding a portion of a full - time SAFE family advocate, CAPSLO will ensure that homeless students’ families and unaccompanied youth do not “fall through the cracks” and experience a service gap when school is not in se ssion. Itemize how your agency would use the GIA award. (refer back to “Funding Decisions” Section on page 1 on the directions) The Human Services Grant will fund homeless supportive services for children and unaccompanied youth through the guidance of a Family Advocate of the SAFE System of Care. Award funds will provide 325 DocuSign Envelope ID: 34A45740-2309-4845-8907-AAA489EB1962 Page 53 of 279 hours of a Family Advocate, from 7/1/2023 through 6/30/2024, during summer and other school breaks, at a cost of $9,259 for salary, fringe and taxes, with $741 in administrative overhead according to CAPSLO’s low federally negotiated rate of 8%. Please describe creative approaches your agency takes to achieve the Agency’s mission. CAPSLO’s Family and Community Support Services Division (FCSS) achieves the agency’s mission of empowering individuals to attain self-sufficiency through strategic programming to meet community needs and provide integrated services through collaboration. The FCSS Division provides a variety of programs that focuses on family stabilization by supporting families in minimizing stressors, preventing child abuse, promoting family success, and connecting families and community members with a variety of resources and services. Current programs include parent education and direct assistance, financial education, family advocacy programs, and a pregnant and parenting teen program. These programs strengthen families and are offered at no fee to the clients. Please describe the interaction or collaboration between your Agency and other local non-profits who serve similar clientele. CAPSLO coordinates with a variety of other family serving community -based programs in order to provide comprehensive services to the SLCUSD homeless students’ families and unaccompanied youth in need. This program in particular works closely with The Link Family Resource Center who also houses family advocates through the SLCUSD. The CAPSLO Family Resource Center Supervisor who oversees this program, is the lead supervisor who holds case review for all family advocates who support SLCUSD, including The Link’s staff, and acts as the liaison between SLCUSD and CAPSLO and The Link. As mentioned previously, SLCUSD provides CAPSLO funding through the California Department of Education’s grant program, Education for Homeless Children and Youth and district Medi-Cal reimbursements to employ one full-time and one part-time Family Advocates during the school year. There are an additional 3 Family Advocates that support the Lucia Mar Unified School District (LMUSD) in the South County that are funded through the Department of Social Services, Behavioral Health, and SLO County funds. These five advocates have been able to provide support to over 1,100 individuals in need during FY 21/22. Family Advocates participate in the Homeless and Foster Youth Advisory Committee, which connects all district homeless and foster youth liaisons. Focus areas of this committee address the needs for transportation to the school of origin and expedite enroll ment or transfer of records between local districts. How will your program and the citizens of San Luis Obispo benefit as a result of this grant? Benefits to the SAFE Program: Human Services Grant funding will provide vital services to homeless families with school age children and unaccompanied minors living in the City of San Luis Obispo while school is not in session, as identified by the school district. Additionally, funding from the city is utilized to leverage grants and donations from other private foundations and individual donations. Benefits to Citizens of San Luis Obispo: The City of San Luis Obispo benefits when children and youth stay and succeed in school , and less families are homeless. Education is often disrupted for homeless children and youth, and difficulty accessing and connecting homeless families to community support services puts them at increased risk of DocuSign Envelope ID: 34A45740-2309-4845-8907-AAA489EB1962 Page 54 of 279 instability. The SAFE program ensures that case management for these families and unaccompanied youth is consistent and ongoing throughout the year, eliminating the gap in services. CAPSLO continues to respond to the ongoing needs of homeless students, their families and unaccompanied youth of SLO to connect them to services year-round.

CASA recruits, trains, and supervises volunteers who advocate for this vulnerable population with the goal of ensuring that each and every child grows up in a safe, nurturing, and permanent home. Each CASA volunteer is that trusted, stable, and kind adult that every child needs and deserves, regardless of their challenges or behaviors. A CASA volunteer provides one-on-one support for children and youth throughout the life of their child welfare case. CASA volunteers are trained to gather information and focus their advocacy (primarily in reports to the court) to cover the needs of the whole child, including placement, physical and mental health, education, permanency, and well-being. Supporting normalcy for their CASA children is a key component of this support. In 2022, our Program Team supported 174 volunteers assigned to 240 children in the foster care system in SLO County. Approximately 50 of those children were placed in the city of San Luis Obispo in 2022. As of the end of 2022, approximately 30 of our CASA volunteers resided within the city boundaries.

The total projected rent for this office next fiscal year is approximately $58,000 (we also pay approximately $3,000 per year for a satellite office in Atascadero). Thanks to significant financial assistance provided by our landlord, a construction company owned by a member of our Board of Directors, and a local contractor, our office was renovated last year and is now a more functional place for CASA staff, the Board of Directors, and volunteers to hold individual and group meetings while protecting the confidentiality of the children and youth we serve. A number of our Program staff also use the office to attend dependency court hearings as those proceedings were transitioned to Zoom meetings at the beginning of the global pandemic in 2020. Our offices provide crucial infrastructure for the training, supervision, and direct service-delivery efforts of our staff and the CASA volunteer advocates. In addition, our staff and volunteers regularly meet and collaborate with social workers and department heads at our office or at the offices of a number of local agencies and partners, many of which are located in San Luis Obispo. (refer back to “Funding Decisions” Section on page 1 on the directions) This award will help defray the cost of rent for our San Luis Obispo office, which serves as our primary brick- and-mortar presence in the county. CASA of San Luis Obispo County is committed to continuously identifying and implementing process improvements and program upgrades in order to better support our CASA volunteers and the children and youth they serve. Examples for 2022 include: --Updated and expanded our Infant and Toddler program, which provides additional training and resources to volunteers who advocate for and support this specialized population, in response to the impacts of the global pandemic and the rise of the use of highly potent synthetic opioids like fentanyl by pregnant women. --Updated and expanded our Mentor Program, which provides bi-monthly activities for teens and young adults ages 14-21 and their CASA volunteers, as well as additional training and resources to volunteers who advocate for and support this specialized population. --Worked with local community groups and members to provide over 200 individual and family gifts to children in foster care. This year our holiday gift program was enhanced to include three “pop-up” stores where CASA volunteers and their assigned children could “shop” for free for gifts for their biological and foster families. Each store was hosted and staffed by a local business that donated gifts as well as refreshments, supplies for wrapping stations, and visits by Santa or his elves. CASA receives both public funding and private donations, and we advocate for and coordinate care for each child through partnerships with public and private agencies. For example, our staff and volunteers regularly meet and collaborate with social workers and department heads at the Department of Social Services, several foster care agencies such as Family Care Network and SENECA, community agencies such as the Center for Strengthening Families, the Community Action Partnership of San Luis Obispo (CAPSLO), Martha’s Place for Children, Drug and Alcohol Services, County Behavioral Health, public or private medical/dental/mental health providers in the community, the County Probation office, the County Office of Education, and administrators and special education professionals at the 11 school districts in the county.

As a result of this grant, SLO CASA will maintain a physical presence at our office in downtown San Luis Obispo. This provides a gathering space for collaboration and working partnerships to ensure we are coordinating services and offering the best possible support to some of the most vulnerable children in the county. The entire community benefits when at-risk children are supported and mentored by trained, caring adults, thereby improving social, emotional, and educational outcomes for the children and cultivating a healthier, safer community for all citizens of San Luis Obispo. CASA volunteers also impact homeless rates by ensuring that teenagers and young adults in foster care have access to the resources they need to secure safe and stable housing as they transition out of foster care. Beginning in January 2023, we are transitioning the in-person component of our initial training classes from a Zoom to a live, in-office format in order to better equip our new CASA volunteers and to provide a better sense of community. We have scheduled weekly information sessions and 4 initial training sessions for 2023, with the goal of again swearing in and supporting 50 new CASA volunteers who will be assigned to approximately 75 children in the foster care system in San Luis Obispo County. We also plan to update and improve outreach to the local San Luis Obispo community, including a new over- the-street banner on Marsh Street and increased participation in San Luis Obispo outreach opportunities, e.g. SLO Chamber of Commerce events and a fall fundraising event that will be held at the Aerovista Business Park.

There is a great and persistent need to provide assistance to children and families who have experienced trauma and adverse childhood experiences stemming from childhood abuse and neglect, family separation, or homelessness, among the other impacts of poverty and vulnerability. In order to ensure that these youth and families have the resources and tools to become successfully independent beyond the work of healing, so that they can reach stability, an infusion of one-time or short-term assistance is required. We provide resources to children, youth, and families in our care - housing support, behavioral health services, foster care support, life skills development, and career/education support - all of which are County-contracted entitled services. Unfortunately, contracted funds are limited and narrow in scope, therefore we seek additional community and foundation support to fully meet the needs of every youth and family entrusted into our care.

SLO City grant funds of $10,000 will enable us to meet any urgent and unexpected needs that may arise in regards to our direct client services. We operate 21 programs within four distinct divisions, that include: Behavioral Health Services which offer mental health treatment programs that heal, empower and stabilize children and youth; Education and Career Support Services which assist current and former foster youth and others in care gain the academic and life skills they need for them to move successfully from system dependence to independence; Family Support Services which provide individualized assistance and family-based care to empower families and stabilize children and youth; and Housing and Support Services which assist homeless and at-risk households and youth to identify and secure affordable housing while providing supportive services to help them become successfully self-sufficient. (refer back to “Funding Decisions” Section on page 1 on the directions) The City of SLO GIA grant would be used to cover expenses that are decided on between Family Care Network's clinical social workers and case managers and the youth and families we serve. Covered costs are related to meeting transportation needs, housing expenses, food and clothing needs, education and career expenses, and more. For example: - a bicycle for a youth so they can transport to school and work - a family needs their first, last, and/or security deposit to move from unhoused to housed - a family transitioning from homelessness needs furnishings and small appliances to provide a fully functional home for their children - a single mom needs groceries and clothing for her growing child - a Transitional Age Youth needs bedding and other move-in supplies for their first apartment or dorm room -a parent needs minor car repairs to help them become more independent in meeting their children’s needs There are countless other circumstances and necessities that are part of an individual or family's plan to prepare them for self-sufficiency. We respond to our clients’ immediate needs that are directly correlated and can further their journeys through care. At Family Care Network, we pride ourselves on taking a data driven approach to programming that relies on best practices and established indicators of successful outcomes. We have developed tools that help us identify community needs, set goals, and measure our progress, at both the agency and individual client level. For example, our own proprietary database system, CareShepherd©, tracks individual progress towards case plan goals, and allows us to aggregate data in order to evaluate overall results, which are used to adjust programs to better serve our clients. As a result, our programs have a high rate of success. Family Care Network has also developed and published the Skills for Life Book©, a workbook which guides life-skill building in all areas critical for self-sufficiency and success. Our youth work with an individualized support team to establish and work towards clear, identifiable goals through concrete and achievable steps. The Skills for Life Book© is a tool that allows youth and their team to monitor competence as the youth develops the life-skills necessary for successful Independent living.

Family Care Network is committed to collaborating with local businesses, organizations, and individuals to provide services to children, youth and families. Our services begin when a client is referred to us by one our partnering San Luis Obispo County agencies, including the Department of Social Services (DSS), Probation, and Behavioral Health. Once engaged with Family Care Network, we rely on numerous partners throughout the community to meet the gamut of our clients’ needs, and in order to help them create strong community support systems. Our case managers familiarize themselves with the supportive services available in the community for which a client is eligible, and provide referral information. This may include referrals to food pantries, resources for parenting assistance and childcare, as well as local community colleges and programs to promote education and employability. Some of our established partnerships include local colleges (Cal Poly, Cuesta and Hancock) and vocational schools, which provide education, training and employment resources. Additionally, our Community Resources Development department is dedicated to creating and expanding our relationships with community partners and to identifying resources outside of the agency that can assist in meeting client needs. This includes inviting individual volunteers from the community to serve various functions, including becoming tutors or career mentors. Our services provide the most at-risk, high-needs, and underserved children, youth, and families in the County with the education, guidance and skill sets necessary from them to go from system dependence to independence, concurrently relieving stress on public resources and services. Grant in Aid funding will help Family Care Network ensure that the needs of those who are most vulnerable are met, ensuring that unmet needs do not become barriers in their efforts to become successfully self-sufficient and productive members of our community.

This request will provide continued funding for our new No-Cook Bags program, bags of portable foods designed for homeless residents who do not have access to a kitchen and so cannot benefit from typical Food Bank distribution items. This program has proven to be very successful in the City of San Luis Obispo, with approximately 1,100 No-Cook Bags distributed each month to homeless residents of the city.

Each bag is carefully curated to contain a full day’s supply of foods that meet the unique nutritional and dental challenges experienced by homeless residents, including shelf-stable proteins like peanut butter and chicken and tuna salads in pouches, cheese, and milk; fruit cups or juices; cereal bars; and other portable nutritious foods. Each bag meets certain caloric and nutrient requirements necessary to sustain an individual for at least one day, with at least five servings of protein, four of grains, and four of fruit/veg. The name “No- Cook Bag” refers to the ability of the bag’s contents to be safely enjoyed without access to a stove, refrigerator, or kitchen equipment. Partnerships are the crux of the No-Cook Bags program model. These bags are distributed by community partners throughout the city who work directly with the homeless, including nonprofits, faith-based organizations, law enforcement agencies, and social service providers. In San Luis Obispo, bags are distributed by the Police Department, Fire Department, churches, 40 Prado, the Salvation Army, Hope’s Village, County agencies, T-MHA, and others. These agencies keep a supply of food bags on hand to distribute as needed and take bags with them when conducting outreach. The bags support the continuum of services offered for homeless residents by providing both improved nutrition and a much-needed tool for early engagement with clients, opening the door to other services that will help the client secure housing. (refer back to “Funding Decisions” Section on page 1 on the directions) Funds will be used to purchase food for No-Cook Bags. While some of the No-Cook Bag contents are donated, funds are needed to purchase many items that must specifically address the needs of unsheltered individuals, such as pop-tops, shelf-stable proteins, and portable sized containers. With the rapidly rising price of food, we are fundraising even more to continue to be able to purchase the same amount of food as last year. The No-Cook Bags are a creative approach we have taken to achieve our mission. When we heard from distribution site leaders that homeless individuals found little that they could use in our traditional bags of groceries, we began asking homeless-serving agencies how we could best provide food for those who lack kitchens, storage, and often transportation. Based on responses, we developed a lightweight grocery bag of portable foods that included much-needed proteins, with no can openers required. We tested the bags through our partners and made revisions based on their feedback. We then went even further and mapped out daily nutritional requirements, filling the bags with foods that provide a full day’s nutritional needs. The result has been a highly-valued resource that our community partners are excited provide to clients. Prior to the pandemic, the Food Bank provided an average of 1,200 No-Cook Bags per month to community agencies. Due to the increased need, we are now distributing 2,500 bags per month to organizations throughout the county. Another creative approach we are taking is conducting a health equity study. While we are serving a large number of people, we know from talking with service providers connected to marginalized communities that there are hungry residents who are not yet accessing Food Bank resources. To learn more about our hidden, under-resourced communities and to work toward increased access, we received a State of CA Health Equity grant. With this funding, we are working to uncover and address systemic inequities, identify unmet needs and ways to reduce institutional barriers to food access, and then implement a plan to reduce barriers for these residents. This deep food equity work includes research to establish our knowledge of both our current reach and the unmet need in the community, with a plan to be presented our Board of Directors in February 2023. Implementation will take place throughout 2023 and beyond. Twenty homeless-serving partner agencies and government departments distribute No-Cook Bags in San Luis Obispo. These partners are very interested in continuing to access this food for their clients. We work closely with them to ensure that the program meets the needs of their clients. The No-Cook Bags are the only source of portable foods for homeless residents, and agency staff tell us that they are tremendously helpful both in providing nourishment and in building trust with clients to help them access services.

Will this grant satisfy a match grant re quire me nt, or le v e rage funding from anothe r grantor? No-Cook Bags benefit homeless citizens directly, providing them with accessible foods at many provider locations. There is an enormous gap in food access for homeless individuals and families, and this program is an economical way to prevent hunger while connecting people with service providers and building relationships between agency staff and homeless residents. Our priority for residents experiencing homelessness is to ensure that they have access to enough food, especially the proteins and other nutritious foods that are more difficult for them to obtain. Demand for No-Cook Bags has skyrocketed since the pandemic began and we continue to distribute over twice as many bags as we did previously.

We are dedicated to providing support service access to all who are dying or grieving in the community. Our services are accessible to a wide range of community members, due to being offered free of charge. We are requesting Human Services Grant funding for our Caregiver Support program, which offers a variety of services to help keep home caregivers healthy and well as they care for a loved one with a life-limiting diagnosis. Sometimes primary caregivers just need a temporary break from full-time caregiving in order to run errands or take care of various life responsibilities. Other times, they need someone to offer them emotional support and companionship, connect them to resources, help normalize the end-of-life trajectory, or help with light housekeeping and meal preparation. To this end, Hospice SLO County’s volunteers visit clients’ homes for up to four hours per week to provide short-term relief or respite care to primary caregivers while also lending compassionate support to the loved one with dementia or other life-limiting illness. Our in-home volunteers provide a consistent supportive presence for the entire family. Exhibit ADocuSign Envelope ID: 6D389318-AE75-454A-8B12-1ABDEBB193F6 Page 89 of 279 Ite mize how your age ncy would use the GIA award.* Ple ase de scribe cre ativ e approache s your age ncy take s to achie v e the Age ncy’s mission.* As we emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic and rebuild our organizational capacity, Hospice of SLO County is requesting a Human Services Grant of $20,000 to support the personnel and operating costs associated with sustaining our Caregiver Support program so that we can meet the community’s ongoing need for our in-home caregiver support services. The funds will help us to train new in-home volunteers and manage our existing pool of volunteers, ensuring that our organization can continue to provided trained volunteers to those in need of caregiver support in our community. Our Caregiver Support program offers free of charge services to help keep home caregivers in SLO County healthy and well as they care for a loved one with a life-limiting diagnosis. Caring for a spouse, parent, relative or loved one with dementia or other life-limiting illness is an immense undertaking, and primary caregivers often need a variety of practical, accessible support services in order to care for their ailing loved one while staying mentally, physically, emotionally, and financially healthy and well themselves. This is where HSLO’s trained volunteers come in, visiting homes throughout SLO County for up to four hours per week to provide short-term relief or respite care to primary caregivers while also lending consistent and compassionate support to both the loved one with dementia or other life-limiting illness and their family. Our modest professional staff manages 120+ consistently active in-home volunteers and trains upwards of 200 volunteers each year, holding quarterly training programs for new volunteers. (refer back to “Funding Decisions” Section on page 1 on the directions) Our agency will use the award to partially fund personnel and operating expenses for our Caregiver Support program. We are asking for $20,000 in this grant request; the total annual budget for our Caregiver Support program is $188,450. Specifically, we will dedicate 50% of the grant funds ($10,000) to offset a portion of the annual salary for our Volunteer Coordinator, who plays a central role in onboarding and managing our pool of 120+ active in-home volunteers who serve clients facing life limiting illness and their caregivers throughout SLO County. The total annual salary of the Volunteer Coordinator is $43,700. The other 50% of the grant funds ($10,000) will be allocated towards training materials and background checks for 50 new volunteers ($8,750 total, at $175 per new volunteer), materials and supplies for the Volunteer Department ($500), technology expenses ($250), and marketing & outreach expenses for the volunteer training program ($500). The vital services provided by our Caregiver Support program elegantly address the confluence of three Human Services priority funding areas, as they critically impact the clients we serve: -Supportive physical and mental health services for those in need -Services for seniors and/or people with disabilities in need -Services encouraging diversity, equity, and inclusivity in marginalized communities Due to our unique social model of being a volunteer hospice (rather than a medically certified hospice), Hospice SLO County offers all of our services free of charge, thereby increasing access to all those who could not otherwise afford support. From its inception in 1977, HSLO has taken a unique and creative approach to meeting its mission of supporting those facing end of life, caregiver fatigue, and grief. A bold and innovative decision of our original Board of Directors reflected the awareness that the healthcare system and insurance plans do not adequately address the needs of individuals and families as they face the challenges of a life limiting illness and end-of-life care. We have maintained a unique organizational social model and are one of only 23 volunteer non-medical hospices remaining nationwide. Our social model places a high priority on providing high-quality, comprehensive training and a consciously created framework for volunteers who want to serve their communities. We maintain a very small staff to recruit, train, supervise, and support a team of 120+ active volunteers who serve the community from their hearts. As a result, the care provided by our organization is heartfelt and delivered in a way that often cannot be matched by medical hospices or other agencies. Also, because of HSLO’s long-standing presence in the community, we often serve as a call center for information and referrals. This is a role we are honored to play, ensuring that callers get connected to appropriate agencies and resources in our community. We are a stable, knowledgeable, and reliable resource for the elderly or infirm who need support and guidance as they seek assistance during declining mental and physical health, and for their families and caregivers. By its very nature, our organization acknowledges that there are healthier and more community-supported means of negotiating the journey from living to dying, and gentler ways to attend to the aftermath of grief that caregivers and families experience after losing a loved one. Volunteer hospice care seeks to alleviate the fear, confusion, and discomfort that many community members may experience around the topic of life-limiting illness, dying, death, and grief. Our volunteers offer both emotional and practical support to clients, caregivers, and families. While there are certain things that volunteers may not do (i.e., administer medications, give shots, DocuSign Envelope ID: 6D389318-AE75-454A-8B12-1ABDEBB193F6 Page 90 of 279 Ple ase de scribe the inte raction or collaboration be twe e n your Age ncy and othe r local non-profits who se rv e similar clie nte le .* apply wound dressings, assist with physical transfers, assist with bathing or bathroom, or provide overnight care), beyond respecting these appropriate boundaries, volunteers are encouraged to follow the client’s lead about what services and supports are most effective and helpful for them. This type of flexible companionship is invaluable as community members age and find themselves needing more assistance with everyday life activities. Maintaining some semblance of autonomy and agency is arguably an important aspect of healthy aging. Our in-home volunteer services are designed so that clients have the primary decision-making role in determining how our volunteers spend their hours of service, bolstering this sense of agency while also being helpful and supportive. Our approach to training new volunteers and providing supplemental training to ongoing volunteers is also highly unique and creative. The themes of inclusivity, diversity, and equity are woven throughout all aspects of our trainings, with an emphasis on empathic listening and human-to-human connection. Our trainings increase the cultural competence of future and current volunteers, preparing them to be of service to community members whose backgrounds or belief systems differ from their own. Additionally, we are actively enhancing our volunteer training curriculum to increase the cultural humility, cross-cultural awareness, and understanding of implicit bias among our staff and volunteers. Through the comprehensive trainings we provide, our volunteers embody the awareness, attitude, knowledge, and skills for effectively and compassionately supporting all those facing end of life or anticipatory grief who avail of our services. We understand that death and grief are a natural part of the human experience, regardless of anyone’s race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, ability, socioeconomic status, political affiliation, citizenship, national origin, religion, language, intellectual or physical capacity, professional status, background, or beliefs. It is from this understanding that we empower our staff, volunteers, and affiliates to be indiscriminately supportive of any and all members of our community who are facing a life limiting illness, caring for a loved one, or experiencing grief. Empathy, advocacy, and compassion are at the core of HSLO’s existence as an organization and community resource. We promote an inclusive and welcoming environment that embraces diverse perspectives, cultures, and backgrounds. We actively cultivate diversity among our dedicated staff and growing family of hospice volunteers, and value an educational environment that challenges all forms of bias, including both intentional and unintentional bias. HSLO is dedicated to a path of learning about and confronting implicit bias, privilege, and systemic oppression, and is committed to striving towards social justice and inclusivity as an organization. We aim to equitably and impartially support the community in working with those near the end of life and the people who love them by providing in-home support, caregiver respite, grief counseling, support groups, community response, and education. By offering all of our services free of charge and not billing third party providers, we aim to be as inclusive as possible to all those members of the community who wish to avail of our support. As a volunteer non-medical hospice, we are able to provide support to those members of the community who may not qualify for or have the means to access medical hospice, respite, counseling, or care services from other agencies. We believe that the end of life deserves respect, and that everyone is worthy of access to support through life limiting illness, dying, and grief. DocuSign Envelope ID: 6D389318-AE75-454A-8B12-1ABDEBB193F6 Page 91 of 279 How will your program and the citize ns of San Luis Obispo be ne fit as a re sult of this grant?* Our support services supplement and complement (but do not duplicate) other services provided in the community. HSLO works collaboratively in the informal community network, receiving a high volume of referrals from other community agencies, and also referring clients to other agencies when appropriate. HSLO is the only volunteer hospice in SLO County and the only entity that offers a comprehensive suite of caregiver support services, including anticipatory grief services for caregivers from the time of their loved one’s diagnosis, regardless of prognosis. Our organization provides an additional layer of support to other agencies in the community and works collaboratively to provide the services in its "own lane" while referring clients to other agencies when their services are better aligned. As a volunteer hospice, the very foundation of our work is collaboration with other nonprofits and community agencies and resources. Our support services fill a niche in clients’ and caregivers’ care needs. Our community regularly expresses tremendous gratitude for the services we provide, which satisfy a crucial area not covered by other agencies. In the greater context of our Caregiver Support program, HSLO continues to both formally and informally collaborate with other local organizations in SLO County including the Alzheimer’s Association, local hospitals and medical centers, and a variety of local health care providers in order to collectively support the needs in the community. Our dedicated Care Manager is an active participant and contributor to the SLO County Adult Services Council. We regularly receive referrals from (and make referrals to) Wilshire Health and Community Services, Central Coast Home Health and Hospice, CenterWell Home Health nursing care (formerly Kindred at Home), Coast Caregivers Resource Center, Dignity Health Home Health and Hospice, Area Agency on Aging, and other agencies in our community. We often work in tandem with home health and medical hospices, allowing clients to receive an additional suite of supplemental support services from us at no cost to them. We also regularly liaise with social services agencies such as Adult Protective Services, the Department of Social Services, Medi-Cal, CAPSLO Adult Day Center, Wisdom Adult Day Center (in Santa Maria), the Community Counseling Center, Meals that Connect, SLO Veterans Services, and Central Coast Veterans Helping Veterans. The members of our board also provide guidance to our organization in fostering connections throughout the community. As a result of this grant, HSLO’s Caregiver Support program will be able to train and sustain more in-home volunteers to provide support for caregivers in our community, serve more people from low-income and underserved populations, reduce the wait time for receiving our services, and realize financial support to continue our services. When caregivers don’t receive the help they need, or if they take on too much themselves or try to do more than they are physically, emotionally, or financially able, they can experience significant and often chronic distress, fatigue, stress, anxiety, depression, and feelings of isolation. At this moment in history, relentless waves of caregiver fatigue and grief are sweeping across the world, and SLO County is no exception. Caregiver fatigue—and in its more extreme form, caregiver burnout—is a state of physical, emotional, and mental exhaustion that primary caregivers can experience when they are seeing to and coping with the progressive care needs of a loved one with Alzheimer’s or other form of dementia or life- limiting illness such as cancer, heart disease or heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, neurodegenerative disease, chronic liver disease, intercurrent illness, or other progressive condition. Caregiver burnout often manifests in a change in the caregiver’s attitude, shifting from positive and caring to negative and apathetic. Signs of caregiver distress include anger and denial, social withdrawal, anxiety and depression, exhaustion and fatigue, sleeplessness, irritability, inability to concentrate or care for oneself, health problems and a decline in wellbeing. The demands of caregiving can be overwhelming, especially when caregivers feel that they have little control over their loved one’s situation or that they are in over their head. If the stress of caregiving is left unchecked, it can take a serious toll on caregivers’ health, state of mind, relationships, and other aspects of their lives. In particular, Alzheimer’s caregivers often report experiencing high levels of stress while coping with their loved one’s progressive decline as dementia symptoms worsen throughout the trajectory of the disease, especially during the late stages when their loved one may become unable to carry on a conversation or functionally respond to their environment and may be coping with severe neurological and physical changes. When caregivers are fatigued, the loved one they are caring for is often negatively affected as a result. This is where the Human Services grant can help us to help our community. Our in-home volunteers are able to informally support caregivers’ psychological wellbeing as they care for a loved one with dementia or other life-limiting diagnosis. Supporting our county’s caregivers is crucial to fostering the mental health and stability of our community. With grants such as those offered through the City of San Luis Obispo, HSLO intends to rise to meet the ongoing community demand for caregiver respite by fortifying its capacity to coordinate, direct, and execute all aspects of our Caregiver Support program, focusing foremost on in-home volunteers to provide respite care to caregivers, as well as on our auxiliary support services.

Doe s your grant re que st me e t this funding priority?* Which othe r priority of the non-ranke d HRC funding prioritie s doe s your re que st support? Ple ase che ck the appropriate boxe s: Our volunteers provide vital social connection to families caring for a dying loved one, and can help families and caregivers to cultivate resilience throughout the anticipatory grieving process. Our volunteers support family members of all ages, from youth to seniors, and are a stabilizing source of relief for the whole family. Our volunteers are comprehensively trained in a variety of community resources, and we also have a dedicated Care Manager who coordinates ‘warm handoffs’ to other agencies that help in our community. Our volunteers can provide practical help to family caregivers while also offering “normalcy” around life-limiting illness and dementia, or simply holding compassionate space for caregivers to express their anticipatory grief. The simple experience of being actively listened to and supported by an in-home hospice volunteer truly does wonders for clients’ and caregivers’ mental health and overall wellbeing. We are available to support all those in need throughout SLO County, regardless of their financial situation or cultural background, and we actively strive for inclusivity. We endeavor to reduce socioeconomic, racial and ethnic, age, gender identity, sexual orientation, and disability disparities by increasing access to in-home volunteer hospice care, grief counseling, care management, and the other support services we offer. As an organization, HSLO is unique in that we are a volunteer nonprofit, non-medical, social model hospice that serves clients experiencing grief or coping with a life-limiting illness free of charge. By offering our services to the community without charge, we effectively eliminate the financial barrier to accessing services for SLO County residents. By being available without the need for medical insurance qualification, all of our in-home Caregiver Support services are exponentially more accessible to a much wider range of community members, many of whom are primary caregivers to loved ones with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia. We serve those in the low- or fixed-income brackets who may not have ready access to social services or are not able to pay for services. We also offer a variety of support services virtually, in order to further increase access for those in remote areas of the county or whose caregiving situations make it challenging for them to visit our downtown SLO location. We bridge an important gap in local services for the dying and grieving, and are often able to respond to requests for support more nimbly than other agencies are, by intentional design following the original volunteer hospice model. Many residents of SLO City and County are currently experiencing the need for in-home hospice volunteer support for those facing or caring for a family member with dementia or other life limiting illness. Simultaneously, they are facing economic hardships that may prevent them from accessing much-needed support services related to health and wellness. Dealing with dementia and life limiting illness, loss, and grief is immensely challenging, and the COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated these challenges, especially among low- income individuals and families. End-of-life and loss are ongoing phenomena, with the ten leading causes of death in California being heart disease, cancer, stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, respiratory diseases, accidents, diabetes, influenza/pneumonia, hypertension, and liver disease/cirrhosis. To date, there have been over 580 COVID-19 related deaths in SLO County. Our organization continues to receive copious requests for support services from throughout the county, and many of our calls come from within the City of SLO. We are doing our best to make sure our agency rebuilds and diversifies its capacity so that we can continue providing much- needed support to our community through and beyond our 46th year of service. While our hospice volunteers do not provide skilled medical care, they offer an array of services that are comprehensive and would be difficult, if not impossible, to achieve in a setting restricted by third party reimbursements or regulatory mechanisms. Unlike Medicare-certified programs, volunteer hospices such as HSLO can serve those who continue to choose chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery with a curative focus. For low- or fixed-income families coping with end-of-life illness but lacking insurance coverage, we remain fully accessible and are here to help. In the most recent calendar year, HSLO in-home volunteers provided over 3,000 hours of in-home respite care and compassionate support services, coordinated by our core staff.

Our Core Values: Commitment-Compassion-Inclusiveness-Transparency We teach adults sixteen and older to read, write, and speak English. Our one-on-one free instruction is provided in safe learning environments. Local organizations that work with the homeless or disenfranchised refer individuals to us with the realization that those individuals bring distinctive challenges to their ability to learn and improve their lives. Our learners are either speakers of English as a first language or speakers of English as a second language. We welcome refugees and immigrants. With competent English literacy skills, our learners can become contributing members of their community and families. They can pursue increased opportunities for employment, housing, and health. Research confirms the number one factor to begin a positive cycle of family-wide literacy is the presence of books in the home. Our program provides free books to our learners and new children’s books so they can start home libraries for their families.

Our tutor trainings are comprehensive and include segments in cultural awareness and mentoring techniques. Our volunteer tutors, who are mostly Seniors, are a tremendously rich resource. We strive, with the tutors’ steady devotion, assistance, and instruction to encourage buy-in and commitment by our learners to our program and culture of our organization. We devote time and training to create a non-threatening and comfortable learning environment for adults who might struggle with staying the course with their self- improvement opportunities. Our each- one -teach one model proves ideal for optimal learning, especially for adults who struggled in the classroom environment. We focus on each learner’s literacy needs. Tutors help learners discover what their literacy learning goals are, and then guide them to set realistic goals that they are most likely to eventually meet. We utilize out-of-the-box teaching resources as well as standardized ones- all in the best interest of the individual’s literacy learning needs. We do not directly instruct children, though we work with their parents to help them improve their literacy skills so that they can read to their young children, bring books into their homes, and break the cycle of illiteracy in their families. Our family literacy program provides some family literacy activities in library branches as well as our learning centers that will involve children’s participation together with their parents and families. (refer back to “Funding Decisions” Section on page 1 on the directions) Use of GIA award Program Coordination: $2,000 Books & Materials Learners: $1,500 Books and Materials Volunteer Tutors: $1,500 Total: $5,000 Our agency asks our volunteer tutors to take a cultural awareness assessment before the first session of our tutor training. The first hour of our training is spent on a group conversation about the cultural awareness assessment. How did it make them feel? Do they agree with the conclusions of their personal cultural awareness perspectives? Why is the conversation helpful/crucial to the work that we do? Or any workplace? For learners, we ask them to share as much as they are comfortable sharing about their backgrounds and heritage. We help them identify how their individual heritage fits or doesn't in the communities they now live. We ask them to select a treasured object or memory that helps them describe their culture and why it's important for them to share and remember in their present situation. These approaches enhance the tutor/learner partnership once they come together to learn and teach. In addition to our partnership with all county libraries, we continue to work, interact, and collaborate with several local non-profits in our community. We continue to work with homeless service organizations that regularly refer their clients for our services. We work directly with Cuesta College and School Districts’ Adult Education programs. Other non-profits who serve the fragile and disenfranchised in our communities also refer their clients to us. To name a few, we have assisted clients from Lumina Alliance, CASA, CAPSLO/Prado, Big Brothers Big Sisters, and SLO4HOME.

Our program is beneficial to SLO residents by having a well- trained cadre of compassionate and patient tutors (most tutors are Seniors- Seniors that are staying involved and viable in their community) available to provide an opportunity to anyone, at no cost, who wants to learn/improve how they read, write, and speak English. We have a constant need to recruit and train community members, many are Seniors, to become volunteer tutors. The SLO residents served by our program improve their ability to become contributing viable members of their communities. Low-level literate adults sign up for tutoring because they cannot compete in today’s job market. They become better equipped to attain a job or promote to a better one. They are far more comfortable speaking for their children and understanding the benefits and challenges of their children’s circle of friends, other parents, and teachers. They become better neighbors. They can better understand the intricate processes of democracy and they can make knowledgeable choices by exercising their right to vote in a well-informed manner. They acquire tangible skills that can provide real hope out of homelessness. We continually need books and materials to support our tutors and learners. We need to equitably compensate and provide benefits to competent staff to manage our program.

This includes: • Resident advocacy • Facility monitoring visits • Complaint investigation/resolution • Information/consultation • Systemic advocacy For the HRC Human Services Grant program, our services will be available within the City. Citizens of the City of San Luis Obispo who move to care facilities outside of the city limits will also receive services. Our advocacy services include preventing low income/low asset care facility residents from eviction to homelessness or to inappropriate levels of care that cannot meet the needs of the client. For 23/24, we will be working with multiple agencies to resolve discrimination issues for homeless clients who require skilled nursing. When these clients complete their skilled therapy services, they often lack safe discharge plans. Care facilities are required by licensing regulations to provide a safe discharge plan. As a result, the facilities are frequently unable to admit these clients. Our request is for $ 4,000 to provide Ombudsman services. The funds will be used cover the costs of providing homeless prevention services for seniors and disabled adults residing in long term care facilities in the City of San Luis Obispo. There are twenty-four (24) residential care facilities for the elderly and three (3) skilled nursing facilities with the capacity to care for 752 people located within city. Our focus during the grant year will include collaborating with low income/homeless client services agencies to resolve discharge plan challenges and ensure that homeless clients have access to skilled nursing facilities. Each year, older or medically fragile homeless individuals are hospitalized and require rehabilitation therapy services in a skilled nursing facility to complete their recovery. Skilled nursing facilities are required by licensing regulations to provide a safe discharge after the resident/patient is finished with rehabilitation services. For many homeless clients there is no safe discharge, leaving them in the nursing facility with no pay source and no alternative housing. To avoid licensing compliance issues, care facility managers are reluctant to accept these clients due to the lack of a discharge plan. As a result, homeless clients who require skilled nursing are being left in hospitals longer than necessary, at a substantially higher cost to tax payers and leaving hospitals with fewer beds for patients who require hospitalization. (refer back to “Funding Decisions” Section on page 1 on the directions) The Human Services Grant (HSG) award will be utilized to provide staff salary. Grant funds will provide salary for paid staff Ombudsman and the Program Manager to resolve homeless/low income client admission discrimination issues. In addition, the funds will be used to recruit, train and support volunteer Ombudsman who provide facility visits and complaint investigations/resolutions. The Ombudsman program utilizes a combination of volunteers and paid staff to provide all Ombudsman services.

No other agency (public or private) duplicates our services. The Ombudsman program does not have enforcement abilities to require care facility staff, residents or resident’ family members to follow facility regulations or laws. Due to the lack of enforcement ability, we use creative approaches to solve problems. We are able to resolve 95% of the complaints we investigate without bringing in other agencies that have enforcement powers (licensing agencies or law enforcement). We accomplish this by training our staff and volunteers on care facility regulations, community resources, and how to use win/win approaches to problem solving. Trained Ombudsman are able to educate facility staff on facility regulations. In addition, Ombudsman can use the regulations to ensure facility residents receive the care and quality of life they deserve. Often we are able to resolve problems quickly and without cost to the facility or harm to the resident. For example: In 2022, an assisted living facility in San Luis Obispo County closed. The facility had several low- income/low asset residence who were not able to afford the rates at other facilities. LTCO was able to advocate with several facilities to accept the residents at a lower rate and is continuing to collaborate with SLO County Public Health to acquire supplemental payments for the facilities that accepted the residents at less than market rate. We were able to ensure that three SSI residents did not have to leave San Luis Obispo County or face homelessness. The Ombudsman program regularly works with other local non-profits, however, very few agencies work with care facility residents so our program is unique in our client base. Locally, we work with Senior Legal Services to provide legal assistance to facility residents. We also work with several organizations, including CAPSLO, hospitals, Alzheimer’s Association, Coast Caregiver Resource Center, hospice/home health agencies, Wilshire Community Services, and county agencies, including Public Health. Our services do not duplicate any of the services provided by local agencies or organizations. The grant will allow Ombudsman services to provide clients with timely access to program staff. The funds will be used for direct services, including complaint investigation/resolution, advocacy and information/assistance. These services help residents and their loved ones avoid early discharge and homeless discharges. In addition, Ombudsman provide family members with education and assistance with filing discharge appeals, insurance appeals and resources to ensure quality of care.

In addition to our shelter program and the variety of comprehensive services that Lumina Alliance offers local survivors, our agency is the only one on the Central Coast that operates as a rape crisis center.

Bilingual/biliterate (Spanish/English) staff members and volunteers provide services including but not limited to crisis intervention, case management, advocacy, individual and group therapy, assistance with temporary restraining orders, court accompaniment, transportation, and childcare. When a bilingual staff person is unavailable, a language line is used to provide services directly to the client in their native language. Our agency also takes care to hire volunteers and staff who are experts in their field whom we highly train to achieve Lumina Alliance’s mission. Through partnership, referrals, and case management, Lumina Alliance works closely with various county nonprofits to provide services to survivors. Lumina Alliance provides comprehensive sexual assault (SA) and intimate partner violence (IPV) services throughout San Luis Obispo County. For example, clients seeking services at Lumina Alliance may also require mental health services. Our agency provides referrals and warm handoffs to Transitions Mental Health (THMA) to ensure survivors get the specialized care they need. Lumina Alliance also provides referrals to nonprofits such as El Camino Homeless Organization (ECHO), 40 Prado Homeless Services Center, and 5Cities Homeless Coalition for unhoused clients. Lumina Alliance also collaborates closely with many other non-profit organizations serving similar clientele through staff participation in the Intimate Partner Violence Coalition, Anti-Human Trafficking Task Force, Supportive Housing Consortium meetings, SAFE meetings, and more. Our organization holds memorandums of understanding (MOUs) with numerous companies and organizations within San Luis Obispo County, including the sheriff’s office, which ensures that survivors have a direct line of contact to our agency even if they confide in other community partners. The organization’s grant request supports the economic and social well-being of the residents of San Luis Obispo because we provide safe, stable shelter to survivors and their families fleeing violence. During their stay, shelter guests can access aid such as financial assistance, legal assistance, and therapy. Additionally, our program directly services SLO residents who are unhoused as our shelter residents are considered “homeless” per County guidelines, thereby directly meeting the HRC’s priority area.

Meals That Connect serves free noontime weekday meals to seniors aged 60 or older at our two community sites in San Luis Obispo. Throughout the pandemic, we have delivered the meals, with frozen meals for weekends and holidays, to all of the seniors in our program. All of our meals are free, although some clients choose to make voluntary anonymous donations. Those donations have dramatically decreased in the past 10 months. On the other hand, the number of SLO seniors requesting our service remains high; we still have to buy food and supplies. Funding from federal and state agencies covers 40% of our expenses; we must raise the rest through local grants, fundraising, and donations from clients, businesses, and individuals. The demand for our services exceeds the money we receive from government agencies. Your grant funding would help us continue to serve the seniors of San Luis Obispo.

Doe s your grant re que st me e t this funding priority?* We are requesting $10,000 from the City of San Luis Obispo to help us maintain the high quality of our program and services. In FY 2020-21 our program served 298 San Luis Obispo residents; in 2021-22 we served 446. In San Luis Obispo, we serve 122 clients daily, 25-30 of them in our congregate dining program. This large increase in the number of seniors we serve has added significantly to our costs, both food and supplies. We are requesting this grant to allow us to continue to provide the food and service to needy seniors in the city of San Luis Obispo. Meals That Connect provides meals at our community site at the Anderson Hotel in San Luis Obispo and at our second site at the United Church of Christ Congregational. All home deliveries are made by volunteers. Currently, our San Luis Obispo site uses 10-12 volunteers daily, out of a total of 54 volunteers. We are the only program serving senior meals throughout San Luis Obispo County, including the City of SLO and the only program serving meals daily in dining rooms. All of our meals are free to those who are eligible. A SLO Human Services grant in the amount of $10,000 would allow us to continue to provide robust support for the healthy aging of our growing population of seniors in San Luis Obispo. The grant will also be used as a matching fund for the Federal grant, effectively doubling its impact. (refer back to “Funding Decisions” Section on page 1 on the directions) If we receive a GIA grant of $10,000, we will use it as follows: $3000 for purchase of food; $4000 for the cost of labor to prepare the food and deliver it to our sites; $500 for food containers and sealant; $500 for cost of equipment maintenance; $500 for gas and maintenance on our refrigerated trucks; $1000 for rent to maintain our lunch sites; $500 for liability and business insurance. Our mission is to feed all seniors in the county who need and ask for our service. In the case of homebound seniors, sometimes they need our service only for a short time after a hospital stay. Or they may suddenly find themselves homebound and in need of our meals. One way we meet this need is by collaborating with home caregivers and hospital discharge nurses who refer seniors to us. We also rely on over 400 volunteers, many of them seniors, to deliver our meals to homebound seniors. Since the pandemic, we have seen an increase in the number of seniors requesting our service. This has meant, in the city of San Luis Obispo, an increase from 5 delivery routes to 12, which meant finding a lot of new volunteers. We partner with Cal Poly nutrition classes, with students working with our dietitian to plan monthly menus and volunteering at our Anderson Hotel site. Cal Poly is the biggest source of volunteers for our downtown site; when they went on winter break, the site went from 108 volunteers to 54. Our partnerships with Grizzly Academy and PathPoint, suspended during the pandemic, have resumed. Grizzly cadets spend two weeks in the summer, working in our kitchen. PathPoint volunteers help deliver meals. Our representative also attends the monthly meetings of the County’s Adult Services Policy Council and the Commission on Aging, giving us an opportunity to share information with other agencies. In San Luis Obispo, we are the only agency that serves seniors free lunches daily and frozen meals for weekends and holidays. A grant of $10,000 would help us maintain our high level of service to the seniors of San Luis Obispo and continue to accommodate new requests from seniors for our service. It would also benefit the city of San Luis Obispo. The annual cost for one senior in a skilled nursing home is $80,300. Your grant of $10,000 will provide meals to 10 seniors for an entire year. If we can extend healthy independent living for 1 senior out 10, the city will benefit. With your help we can continue to address the problem of food insecurity among the elderly and its attendant poor health outcomes. We know that many of our seniors cannot afford adequate nutrition on their own. Additionally, our home-delivered meals allow seniors who are unable to shop and cook for themselves to stay in their own homes rather than move to assisted-care facilities. A grant in this amount would allow us to continue to provide robust support for the healthy aging of our growing population of seniors in San Luis Obispo. This grant will also be used as a matching grant to secure federal and state funding.

Exhibit ADocuSign Envelope ID: DF779C1E-0FC5-4AD6-A5F8-019C4FC32FE5 Page 138 of 279 Ple ase de scribe your grant re que st in de tail (max 250 words)* Ite mize how your age ncy would use the GIA award.* Restorative Partners has an emergency fund called the RP Opportunity Fund. This fund is used for individuals needing financial assistance during their reentry journey. Applicants are primarily low-income SLO citizens and in-recovery from substance use disorders. Many are justice-involved and often face challenges such as homelessness, relapse, reincarceration, unemployment, and more, all while experiencing the stigma that comes with being formerly incarcerated. Applicants’ needs range in scope and cost, from buying textbooks to mental and physical health services, to rent. In 2021, RP anticipated supporting approximately 30 applicants. The number of applicants has since doubled. RP is requesting additional funds due to our inability to meet the increasing demand for support, and the need for more than a one-time support per applicant. Though some clients can receive state or federal funding for housing, there are sometimes delays in funds being released. In those instances, RP offers to pay until funded. Since the beginning of 2022, Restorative Partners has been able to help 64 individual clients with emergency funds. These emergency funds include providing financial aid with rent, mandated courses, I-9 Docs, and other living expenses. Eight of those have been for housing worth over $6,000. Our second biggest request is to help with mandatory DUI classes; for which RP has been able to fund over $4,200 for 6 applicants. RP is requesting $16094 to be able to fund clients continuously. This grant would give RP the ability to fund clients that are in need of more than one-time support. Certain clients will have one need early on in their healing journey and then face other challenges. Clients might need help finding a job and acquiring their I-9 documents but shortly realize they have no transportation. RP would help the client think ahead and help them with transportation. Delays in state and federal funding are also another gaps RP wishes to address through the GIA funding. Clients who receive funding from other sources have limited time and funding, but clients may need more time to stay in transitional housing or to complete courses. RP would then take over funding for the client to allow enough time for the client to either find a job or become fully self-sufficient. Funding these needs allows clients to rest assured and focus on rehabilitation instead of worrying when their next meal is or if they will have a roof over them tomorrow. DocuSign Envelope ID: DF779C1E-0FC5-4AD6-A5F8-019C4FC32FE5 Page 139 of 279 Ple ase de scribe cre ativ e approache s your age ncy take s to achie v e the Age ncy’s mission.* (refer back to “Funding Decisions” Section on page 1 on the directions) Upon completing the application process and obtaining approval from the fund committee, applicants could receive funding for their emergency needs or perceived emergency needs: Examples of services, items, or purchases that have been covered by RP and hope to continue to cover. This is not an exhaustive list of services, and other expenses may be considered on a case-by-case basis. Right-to-work docs AKA I9 documents (such as obtaining a California ID, driver’s license, birth certificate, immigration documents, etc.) Housing (affordable, alternative, or transitional housing) Transportation (public transportation, bicycle or car payment or down payment, registration, insurance) to get to work or appointments Hygiene products (toothpaste, soap, feminine products, razors, toenail clippers, non-alcoholic mouthwash, lotions, tissue paper, etc.) Possibility of Daycare for a child if the Client works Building your resume and preparing for job interviews Budgeting, saving, and building credit Going back to school or technical training Rent or Security Deposit Assistance with DUI classes, mandatory classes, and anger management classes. Hotel vouchers Currently, we have been able to provide not only a month's rent for clients, but we have been able to provide security deposits for clients when they get their own apartments. RP would continue this with new clients in need, but the GIA award would allow RP to fund clients multiple times as we are currently only able to fund clients once. Some of our clients can receive state or federal funding for rent, however, are often limited to only 6 months. There have been instances in which clients are not yet ready in the recovery journey to be fully self-sufficient. In addition, the second biggest item of our opportunity fund, funds are DUI courses. A large percentage of clients are in need of completing a mandated DUI course to be able to get their driver's license back or successfully complete their supervision with Parole or Probation. RP has been forced to prioritize clients’ needs over others due to limited funding. RP has been able to fund most courses but there have been some we haven't been able to. Some of the smaller items we use our funds for are to get clients their I-9 documents, birth certificates, notaries, bikes, and household supplies. All expenses are needed to secure employment, provide transportation, and have a safe and healthy living space/environment. In addition to these items we currently fund, RP hopes to extend services to, what we have identified as noticeable trends, such as continued education. Restorative Partners has been working on opening a Cafe that would allow second opportunities for those who need them. The Bridge Cafe is a social enterprise venture providing a place of employment and job skill development for individuals with justice involvement. In partnership with Cuesta College, we are offering clients an opportunity to participate in The Culinary Arts Foundation Certificate of Specialization. Participants will attend courses at Cuesta College and gain hands-on experience at The Bridge Cafe in Downtown San Luis Obispo. We envision a safer community where everyone belongs and strive to accomplish this by transforming lives impacted by crime through healing services and relationships. RP is looking to Transform lives one bite at a time Restorative Partners has a Diversity of services. These include housing, reentry, in-custody, and social enterprises. RP has a set of sober living houses that clients are able to live at while trying to rehabilitate. In addition, RP has in-custody and reentry services that allow clients to have access to resources and support from RP staff. These include but are not limited to having a mentor for clients who would like one. RP has partnered with Cuesta College and Calpoly SLO to present and recruit volunteers to help RP staff. These volunteers show interest in restorative justice and help out at the RP office or during events. This connection has allowed RP and the community to connect. Students/volunteers learn not only about the justice system but also the restorative justice that RP believes in. RP is an advocate for hiring individuals with lived experiences. Staff who have lived experiences are able to show staff unique ways of thinking that someone without lived experiences might not understand or know of. In addition, clients have shown more openness to staff with lived experiences and have had deeper conversations. At RP, there have been clients who have become staff and have shown a tremendous amount of growth. They have since gone out into the community and into institutions to speak up about their experiences and how RP has helped them achieve their goals.

Our restorative justice approach focuses on mind, body, and spiritual transformation; incorporates trauma-informed care, addresses responsibility and accountability, and offers accompaniment through reentry mentorship. We also provide clean and sober living homes for men and for women as well as own and operate a home for women who are ready to reunite with their children and move forward with their lives. The goal in all of our transformative work is to reduce violence and lower recidivism by providing a continuum of care from incarceration through reincorporation to our community. RP has been able to help clients, who are San Luis Obispo citizens, stay sober. Individuals who are able to stay sober have been able to stay off the streets, and have reduced the number of drugs used and needles littered on our streets. RP has been able to find sustainable housing (long term, not just short term) for our clients. This has resulted in a decrease in people experiencing homelessness in our program. As a result, these individuals have been able to get a job, and roofs over their heads and have become contributing citizens in San Luis Obispo. By helping clients accrue their driver's license, RP has been able to reduce the number of people driving without proper documentation. Clients have been able to focus on rehabilitation and not stress about homelessness with the help of RPs Opportunity Fund Helps individuals stay out of jail/prison by encouraging prosocial behaviors such as asking for help rather than turning to crime to meet financial needs. Helps people graduate from substance use and anger management treatment programs to stay sober Adds people to the job market, and contributes to SLO’s economic growth. This increases a healthy sense of community. Would help people finish their educational programs/schooling by helping pay for courses and books. Would help reunite families RP would be able to accept more requests and be able to help more than once. Some of our other funding was granted for us to provide a one-time support for our participants who are rebuilding their lives after incarceration. Homelessness can occur even in those who haven't been incarcerated. Some may also need multiple opportunities for funding, or continued assistance (though time-limited) Clients get assistance legitimately rather than getting into risky situations and re-entering from the criminal world to meet those needs.

When clients of MiddleHouse relocate to independent living after a satisfactory stay at MiddleHouse, they find it difficult to find housing due the extreme expense of pre-rental requirements (ie., security deposit, first & last months rent, etc). This grant would be a contribution to the individual to supplement these expenses.

Doe s your grant re que st me e t this funding priority?* As a successful client completes their tenure at MiddleHouse they will have to move to independent living. This means renting an apartment or house in San Luis Obispo. Initial costs of this transition are extreme. Costs could include 1) a security deposit on the residence and each utility (water & sewer, gas & electric), 2) forward payment of first and last months rent, and 3) acquiring other necessities (some furniture, renting a truck for moving, etc). Often a client, although employed, does not have adequate capital for these large costs. Providing a person with a grant of $1000.00, will significantly subsidize their own contribution to these expenses. Were this gift to be granted to a limited number of 5 exiting clients, the total grant would be for $5000.00. (refer back to “Funding Decisions” Section on page 1 on the directions) The gentlemen who have lived in the sober living environment at MiddleHouse have demonstrated their ability to live responsibly, pay their bills and cooperate with others. They have stayed sober and clean for a significant length of time and have demonstrated the ability to completely leave their habit in the past. They have worked in full or part time employment for the majority of their residency and have practiced being a positive member of society. When the client moves from MiddleHouse, the proposed grant would be a significant step to preventing homelessness for those clients. In line with the main funding of this grant, it is a solution to homelessness prevention by providing access to of affordable housing for these clients. The Manager of MiddleHouse, who personally knows the clients and has observed their behavior for their entire stay, would be assigned to award, disperse and manage the distribution of the grant. MiddleHouse provides housing for clients who have established their recovery program and are adjusting to sobriety in a sober, safe and healthy environment. This is the first step in resolving their potential homelessness. MiddleHouse’s primary objective is Sober Living. This includes housing for a limited time. When the time for a client to leave arrives, there is no formal budget or resources to assist the client. However, there have been the offers by former clients, or other individuals, who independently choose to loan or donate resources to the client in their aid. The extreme rise in housing costs is a relatively recent problem. Applying for this Grant serves as the first formal attempt to solve this problem for these persons. MiddleHouse and other Sober Living facilities refer residents to each other to best serve the logistical needs of the recovery community. MiddleHouse attends SLE (Sober Living Environment) Round Table discussions, at SLO Drug and Alcohol Services, on a regular basis with other Sober Living Homes and Programs to compare notes, exchange ideas and to share awareness of and access to community resources for our residents. These resources include employment opportunities, transportation, health care, addiction treatment, detox, etc. MiddleHouse and other Sober Living facilities share information about persons of ill intent who may target the people we are trying to help. That information includes jobs scams, criminals, sexual predators, drug dealers, etc. he answer to this question is obvious. Even if a client can afford the rent, he may not be able to fulfill all the financial requirements of being accepted as a tenant. They will be totally on their own to seek alternate resources, such as, to apply for the homeless programs provided by the City and County. The monies provided by this Grant will significantly deter the clients from having to resort to the homeless alternatives.

One of SLOLAF’s original programs, Senior Legal Services Project (SLSP) is the only program in SLO County exclusively devoted to providing free legal services to residents aged 60+. SLSP sees clients out of its main office in SLO, makes home visits to homebound and institutionalized clients, and provides community outreach and education throughout the County. SLSP prioritizes seniors who are in greatest economic or social need and are at risk of losing safety, housing, and independence. SLSP utilizes SLOLAF’s four staff attorneys and five volunteer attorneys. Each year SLOLAF fields calls from approximately 1,450 SLO County residents in need of legal assistance or referrals to other resources, 400+ being seniors. SLSP’s resulting caseload of 225+ clients each year includes civil matters such as housing preservation, consumer finance, long-term care issues and preparing for incapacity/end-of-life.

Last fiscal year, SLSP devoted over 1,825 staff and volunteer hours to helping seniors solve their legal problems, serving 232 clients. Though it may seem like our caseload is down from previous years, it is because we are taking on much more complex cases because we now have the staff attorneys to handle them. SLOLAF has another housing program with separate funding that serves certain low-income senior clients; senior clients who are over the income threshold for that program are seen through SLSP. Going forward in FY23-24, we will continue to serve seniors who are having trouble with their government benefits, elder abuse cases and guardianship/conservatorship cases through other separately funded programs as they have allowed us to expand our services. Even with these additional programs assisting seniors in the aforementioned areas, there are still many seniors in need of the other legal services we offer. Based on actual hours so far this year, we estimate spending over 2,000 hours on SLSP this year, serving 225+ SLO County seniors, with approximately 25% being SLO City residents. We are requesting $10,000 from the City to help us provide these valuable services our clients cannot afford. The City’s funding is important as it provides a required match for our major funder, Area Agency on Aging. Funds are used to support staff needs so we can provide the administrative, staff attorney and outreach services required. (refer back to “Funding Decisions” Section on page 1 on the directions) The funding would be used to provide funding for staff: • Our Supervising Legal Assistant services every SLSP client from the administrative end and supports our staff and volunteer attorneys. This position is also bilingual, allowing us to serve the needs of the Spanish- speaking senior population in SLO County. • Having staff attorneys allows us to service a senior client with an urgent need that can’t be met through our very part-time volunteer attorneys, preserving the senior’s peace of mind, food security and housing stability. In FY22-23 we committed to having a half-time attorney dedicated to serving our senior clients. • Our Legal Director oversees the staff and volunteer attorneys, as well as the Supervising Legal Assistant, so funding is needed to cover a pro-rata portion of her salary and benefits. • To provide funding for outreach. SLOLAF has a Community Housing Advocate who is fully funded through an outside source, but our staff attorneys and Legal Director also spend time doing outreach through webinars, in-person education sessions, etc. In FY22-23, with senior centers finally open again after being shuttered due to the pandemic, SLOLAF started having office hours at the various senior centers around SLO County in an effort to reach more seniors where they are at. Attorneys meet with the seniors to discuss their issues, and if appropriate, set them up with an appointment in the office to handle their legal matter(s). SLOLAF has traditionally delivered our services as any law firm would – in person. In-person appointments allow us to gauge the client’s cognitive capabilities and ensure that they are not being unduly influenced by another. To that end, we offer appointments in our SLO office, in senior centers around the county, and will go to a client’s residence or care facility if necessary. The COVID-19 pandemic forced us to deliver services in a very different manner. For the safety of our clients, staff and volunteers, we moved to phone and Zoom appointments. Though not ideal, this delivery method worked well. Due to the constantly fluctuating state of health in our county, we are currently at about 25% in-person appointments and 75% phone appointments. We anticipate that we will never be back to 100% in-person appointments thanks to technology. This is actually a benefit as it allows us to better serve clients who do not have transportation to come to our office for an appointment as we can serve them over the phone or Zoom. In addition to paid staff attorneys, we use volunteer attorneys (mostly retired) when we can. We provide the office space, malpractice insurance, supplies and administrative support, and they provide breadth of experience. Collectively, our volunteer attorneys donated $42,000 last year (FY21-22) in professional services. We also regularly utilize Cal Poly pre-law students as interns to assist with case research and have them sit in on case appointments and hearings, providing them with valuable training in the pro bono legal field. SLOLAF also has three bilingual employees so we can better serve the Spanish-speaking community. Spanish speakers are a large portion of the low-income clients we serve. The addition of our bilingual Outreach Coordinator in FY21-22 amplified our reach in this area. We’ve seen the percentage of clients who identify as Hispanic increase from 9% in FY19-20 to 22% in FY21-22. It’s been a slow process, but building trust with the Hispanic community takes time, and we have the right employees now to do just that.

We have an MOU with the Long-Term Care Ombudsman’s Office to receive referrals for legal cases and to provide training to their advocates. We work with Adult Protective Services on elder abuse cases they refer to us. Social workers from Hospice SLO and Wilshire Hospice contact us with questions regarding legal issues affecting their clients. Last fiscal year, we did community outreach and education for Los Osos Cares, LTCO, 5 Cities Homeless Coalition, HASLO, CAPSLO, APS, SSVF, Dept. of Social Services, Family Care Network, ECHO, TMHA, SLO Veterans Services Collaborative, The Link, and Central Coast Autism Spectrum Center, and were featured in several interviews on KCBX and KSBY. We did outreach at UndocuSummit.and the SLO Women’s’ March. Staff members regularly participate in inter-agency group meetings such as Court Community Partners, the Adult Policy Services Council, Intimate Partner Violence Coalition and Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF). As of 2/1/23 we are absorbing the legal department of Lumina Alliance (formerly Stand Strong + RISE), assisting with the legal issues of survivors of sexual assault and intimate partner violence and continuing to partner with them on our common clients. We are a subcontractor with CAPSLO on their SSVF program, assisting veterans who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless in an effort to help them make a successful transition to permanent housing. With continued support from the City of San Luis Obispo, SLSP will be able to continue serving low-income seniors in need. We will continue our work in the following areas and beyond: • Advising and representing clients who are having housing issues, including eviction, landlord-tenant issues, habitability, accessibility, housing discrimination, and COVID-19 issues. These matters are often complex and require an attorney for resolution. • Advising and representing clients who are having problems with creditors. Often our clients cannot decipher which communications from creditors are legitimate and which are scams. SLSP’s attorneys helps them with these issues, as well as other consumer-related problems. • Assisting clients in long-term care facilities with appeals when their funding is wrongfully denied and they are going to be discharged, many times leaving them homeless and in need of urgent medical care. • Educating senior groups about Powers of Attorney and Advanced Health Care Directives, preparing and customizing those documents for individual clients. These documents allow clients to name agents to act for them in the event they become unable to manage their property or to communicate their desires as to the type of medical treatment they receive, giving them peace of mind about the future.

Shower the People (STP) is an all-volunteer, non-profit mobile shower program that provides access to a free shower to the homeless in our community. Our shower sites have been a welcoming, safe, clean and reliable spot for the homeless to shower for the past 5 years. Currently we have 4 sites in SLO and one site in Grover Beach. All of our current sites are often at capacity, providing anywhere from 15 to 30+ showers a day, 5 days a week. The number of showers we have provided to date in 2022 is 5,381. In 2021 the Total number of showers given was 3,304. This year's sharp increase was causing us to turn some folks who wanted a shower away at the end of our shift. Our response was to add an additional shower site in San Luis. The new Saturday site has been active since September. The need for showers in our community remains great. We believe a shower not only helps homeless individuals to be clean and presentable but it also lifts their mood and outlook on life. Some of our regular shower guests hold jobs. Our goal and desire is to continue our shower program in the community as long as it is necessary and useful.

From January through November 2022 STP has provided shower services to a Total of 5,381 people. In 2021 STP provided showers to 2,824 in the City of San Luis. In 2022 we have provided showers to 4,450 at our sites in San Luis. The large increase in folks wanting showers this year in San Luis persuaded us to open an additional site in San Luis in September. The addition of the Saturday site appears to have been effective in taking the strain off of the other City sites where we were turning some folks away without a shower at the end of the shift. Our shower program consists of a mobile trailer that has three fully contained private shower units, each with a toilet, mirror and shower. Each guest is able to take a 15 minute shower after which the unit is thoroughly cleaned, sanitized and prepared by our volunteers for the next guest. Our shower guests receive a new T- shirt, new boxers, new socks, a toothbrush/toothpaste, comb, razor and hand disinfectant. The towels and washcloths are provided to us every week by the Arroyo Grande Community Hospital. We use a biodegradable soap and shampoo. Shower the People is an all-volunteer program. Currently we have 40 volunteers. Most of our volunteers work at our sites, but other folks help in numerous ways; by ordering and storing the products we give away, maintaining our trailer and van, working on communications and our social media, and by collecting and formatting our data. Each site has an onsite driver, supervisor, intake person and 3 cleaners. Shower the People is governed by a Board of Directors made up of 7 members of our community. (refer back to “Funding Decisions” Section on page 1 on the directions) 85% of our funding in 2022 was used for program/operations costs. These include the new underwear and hygiene products that we give to our shower guests, the gas, propane and maintenance for our mobile shower and van, the trailer and van insurance, disinfectant/gloves/masks, and volunteer recognition and training. 14% of our funding went to administrative costs, liability insurance, software and administrative supplies. 1% went to fundraising software and supplies. If awarded, our grant funds would be used to cover the cost of operations associated with our City of San Luis sties in FY 2023-24 Shower the People maintains sites that are welcoming, safe, clean and reliable. Our sites are in areas that are accessible to the homeless; near bus routes, main streets, and in parking lots. Our partner churches and County Library in the downtown area of SLO support us by allowing us to use their water and electiricy to run our showers and the bathroom facilities for our volunteers. The Methodist Church of SLO allows us to park our trailer/van in their safe parking area at the church. STP is always exploring new places and new ways to provide showers to the homeless.

This year Shower the People was part of the Cities Homeless Service Providers Group that met to discuss the Cities Strategic Plan on Homelessness. The Public Health Department has held two major drives to vaccinate our shower guests at our sites for both flu and COVID. During the last drive this November the public health nurse gave 25 flu and covid shots to our guests. STP partners with CAPSLO Supportive Services for Veterans, The Salvation Army, Transitions Mental Health, The County Nurse Navigator, and Dignity Health's Street Medicine Team. Both 40 Prado and 5CHC notify the showers when the warming stations are open. We post a sign to that affect on our Van at the sites. For the last 4 years Shower the People has offered free showers at the annual Veteran's Stand Down, providing our shower services to the veterans attending the event. . According to the 2022 Point in Time Report there are 1,448 homeless in the County and 80% of them are unsheltered; living in the streets, encampments or in cars. There are no free showers available to the public in the City of San Luis. Offering a person the opportunity to shower is a simple step to improve that person’s life.

Added rooms at below market rents add to the community’s stock of affordable housing and prevent homelessness. Staff time and screening fees are required for client intake, screening, matching and support. 2) Increase production of affordable accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and tiny houses on wheels (THOWs) in backyards. These can provide affordable, energy efficient housing without public subsidy, yet development and construction is daunting. Community workshops in Smart Share's new demonstration THOW in San Luis Obispo will educated and inspire residents. 3) The Waterman Village, twenty 100% affordable homes around a restored historic adobe on Dana St. will house vulnerable residents. Smart Share requests funds for drainage planning to protect the historic adobe and proposed affordable homes. HomeShareSLO creates housing by assisting providers with unused bedrooms in choosing a suitable, screened housemate, and establishing a homeshare arrangement. While not limited to low income, 96% of homeshare seekers and 71% of providers are low income. Financial benefits to current SLO City matched clients total roughly $91,200/yr, in income to providers and savings to seekers. The program requires staff time for outreach and to screen program clients and provide client support. In order to make a homeshare match, 6 to 10 homeshare clients have to be screened, at a cost of approximately $150-$200 per intake, or roughly $2000 per homeshare match. Smart Share's ADU SLO program will be "showing off" its new demonstration tiny house on wheels (THOW) from roughly March to December 2023 at the SLO Grange Hall on Broad St. Smart Share has welcomed thousands of visitors into ADUs and THOWs at multiple past events and demonstrations, including its 2019 Tiny House Expo. Activities have inspired and assisted City residents to construct ADUs. Grant funding would support 10 educational workshops in 2023, free to City residents. The Waterman Village is under development in a prime central location at 466 Dana St. In addition to restoring the existing boarded up Rosa Butron de Canet adobe into a lively community hub, the project will create 20 efficient, affordable homes for City working people and seniors. The site sits near the confluence of two rivers in a floodplain, so drainage planning is essential.

Ple ase che ck the appropriate boxe s: What is the proje ct’s total budge t?* SmartShare programs find creative ways to work with existing housing stock and developed parcels to better meet the needs of our community, whether through changing the way we live in homes or through adapting our homes in cost-effective ways to house more people affordably. Homesharing makes use of underutilized rooms to create a safe home for housing seekers priced out of the local market, while helping homeowners and renters with an extra bedroom to age in place by bringing much- needed income and social connections to their daily life. Creating a successful homeshare match is a human- based, time-intensive challenge, but when a stable match is achieved, a 3 bd/2 ba home housing one isolated senior has become a comfortable home for two residents, each with their own private living space, plus opportunity to connect and help each other. Homesharing fills a critical gap particularly for vulnerable clients, senior women and the disabled, who don't feel confident or safe using Craigslist to find a housemate. The program helps seniors age-in-place, promotes better health, lowers isolation and allows pets to have homes, too. As a result clients show a reduced need for health and social services and other city services. Empty backyards and underutilized garages provide further opportunities for creative approaches to recast them into housing as ADUs and JADUs and spaces to park a tiny house on wheels. City owned parcels, such as the Waterman Village’s Rosa Butron de Canet adobe at 466 Dana St, offer opportunities for urban infill and historic structure adaptive re-use and present opportunities for sustainable living centers and co-living. Smart Share collaborates and shares resources with many national, statewide, county and city nonprofit agencies and government entities. Agency staff sit on and participate in HSOC Housing Committee, Housing Consortium, Area Agency for the Aging, Adult Services Policy Council , Housing Trust Fund, National Shared Housing Resource Center, Casita Coalition and other homeless service, housing and senior serving networks sharing technical resources, meeting spaces, referrals, outreach, training, education and support. Additionally, staff meet regularly with and collaborate with Wilshire Community Services, Hospice SLO, SLO Village, Ecologists and Alzheimers Association, which have similar clients and interests. Smart Share is partnering with the SLO Guild Hall on the demonstration tiny home project and workshops. Importantly, none of the programs offered by Smart Share duplicate any other local programs or services. Funding will continue support for housing and homeless prevention programs and allow Smart Share to continue serving SLO City residents to find affordable housing, and those who seek our services to find a screened housemate and assistance in setting up a homeshare arrangement. It will help us support the existing homeshare matches in SLO that bring financial benefits to participants of $91,200/yr, while improving their quality of life (81% report better quality of life, 92% are able to live more affordably, 85% say homesharing has been a good or great experience.) It will also provide support to help guide City residents in providing housing on existing lots in the form of ADUs and THOWs and for new housing projects in development, such as Waterman Village, a 100% low-income affordable, car-free, housing micro-village, neighborhood park and historic adaptive reuse project, bringing use to a long vacant and derelict historic resource in the City’s central core.

Our vision is a strong, healthy, compassionate community that gives youth the foundation to thrive and succeed. 211 SLO County brings people and services together. Free, confidential 211 calls and text messages are answered by knowledgeable, bilingual contact specialists who provide 24-hour referrals and support to those in need of health and human services. When possible, callers are given three referrals for each need they present; this could include shelter, housing, food, health care, transportation, or information pertaining to a local disaster. Callers in crisis or with immediate mental health needs are connected via a warm transfer to appropriate support lines, where trained volunteers and staff are prepared to give more personal help. Individuals and families are connected with important services and programs, giving them the support they need to be productive and healthy community members. All resources are also available online through the public resource directory at 211slo.org. People in need can also receive resource information via text by messaging your zip code to 898211.

It is our goal to retain our current staffing levels to ensure quality and accuracy of the resource database. Local 211 calls and texts are answered by trained contact specialists at a call center in Ventura County operated by Interface Children and Family Services (ICFS). The contracted cost has increased over the last four years due to increased call volume during the pandemic, personnel costs and system improvements. Additionally, our 211 statewide network funding has decreased. Since 2010, 211 SLO County has received over 64,000 calls. In the past four years, an average of about 30% of calls are from the City of SLO including Cal Poly. 211 SLO County telephone and database software is entirely cloud-based, making it available even in times of disaster. Texting was introduced in 2017, and since then we have seen an increase in use of 2-way texts with 100 anticipated for this year. Users text their zip code to 898211 to begin the request for referrals. There are over 1,200 active agencies and over 2,000 active programs listed in the 211 SLO County database. A full-time Database Manager maintains the data and assists local agencies with updating and verifying their resources. 211 resource data is available through the public database at 211slo.org. Both a guided search and keyword search are available. (refer back to “Funding Decisions” Section on page 1 on the directions) $ 10,000 - Contract with Call Center (operating costs) $ 5,000 - 211 Database Software 211 SLO County helps the most vulnerable populations in our community by connecting them to local services, and helping them navigate the social services network. 211 also uses a short-code text system to provide easily accessible information. For example, one could text ‘PSPS’ to 211211 to get info about Public Safety Power Shutoffs, including tools to see if their residence could be affected, and find accessible resources if they are in a shutoff zone. 211 provides more than just a phone call; it provides an array of services dedicated to helping others connect to the services they need. We also partner with local jurisdictions in times of disaster to support and assist emergency response efforts. United Way of San Luis Obispo County works closely with local nonprofit agencies to ensure that contact resource specialists are providing accurate referrals. Additionally, we have established partnerships with several local agencies which provide community referrals including: Lumina Alliance and Transitions Mental Health Association crisis clients who are gracefully handled with a "warm transfer" from 211, where the call specialist dials the number, staying with the client as the call is transferred. Because of the sporadic nature of SLO County weather, overnight warming centers are only open when certain conditions are met. The following agencies all notify 211 when warming centers will be open. Clients unsure if the warming center is open can call 211 or text “SLOCountyWarm” to confirm. Partners include Community Action Partnership of San Luis Obispo County (CAPSLO), Los Osos Cares and 5Cities Homeless Coalition. United Way partners with the following agencies for implementation of our public awareness campaign for 211 SLO County including agency education and updating of agency records: PG&E, County of SLO, City of SLO, KSBY, and American General Media. Additionally, the SLO County Office of Emergency Services (OES) uses 211 in tandem with the Reverse 911 system. In the event of a disaster, OES personnel has been trained to provide updates to the system, so that call specialists are able to provide feedback to concerned citizens – without tying up the 911 phone line for non-emergency situations.

Approximately 1,500 residents in the City of SLO called 211 last year and received the information and referrals they needed. When an individual or family needs assistance, often multiple types of help are needed. By calling 211, community members are connected to critical resources and helped to navigate the thousands of resources available to residents. Callers are provided referrals to as many different agencies or services as necessary to ensure their needs are met. As a result of this grant, 211 SLO County will be sustained and strengthened, therefore providing expanded information and referrals to much needed resources to the residents of San Luis Obispo.

Specifically, residents were provided financial assistance for rent or deposit to gain or retain housing, coupled with case management support, and data management (HMIS). No operational changes were made during this grant period. Statistical Report: 5CHC was able to assist 9 households, 23 people with Homeless Prevention and Rapid Re-housing Assistance to gain or maintain their housing. 5 households were assisted with rental assistance to maintain their housing after falling behind on rent 4 households were assisted with deposit or first month’s rent to secure housing after experiencing homelessness. Those receiving Rapid Re-housing assistance included a young individual sleeping in his car, and single father with four daughters living in their car after the father lost his job due to lack of childcare, a single adult living on the street, and a homeless youth exiting from a transitional housing placement to a home of her own. Those receiving Homeless Prevention Rental Assistance had been financially impacted and were unable to make their rent putting them at risk of losing their housing. Several households were out of work due to illness or injury, and have since returned to work and are able to continue meeting their financial responsibilities. The other household had unexpected expenses or fell for a scam, but with rental assistance and budgeting support they were able to get their finances back on track. All households receiving financial assistance also received case management, referrals to appropriate services, budgeting and financial literacy training and connections to community resources. All households assisted remain in their home.

(CAPSLO) Program: SAFE San Luis Obispo Family Resource Center Administrator's Report: Human Services Grant funds are being used to pay for a portion of a full-time SAFE San Luis Obispo Family Resource Center (SLO FRC) Family Advocate, who provides direct services to San Luis Coastal Unified School District (SLCUSD) families and unaccompanied youth in the City of San Luis Obispo when school is not in session. The SLO FRC Family Advocate is often the first point of contact for families. They act as a mobile Family Resource Center by going to individual school sites or directly to the families and unaccompanied youth rather than being solely located at one physical location. The concept of “mobile family support” has been facilitated by providing the Family Advocate with a cell phone, laptop, and portable Wi-Fi hotspot during the pandemic. The Family Advocate coordinates support services with CAPSLO’s 40 Prado Homeless Services Center and with other community agencies. Statistical Report: Between July 1, 2023 and June 30, 2024, the San Luis Obispo Family Resource Center staff have: • Case managed 20 families, providing intensive services that include case planning, resource connection, and other needed assistance to stabilize the family. • Of the case managed families that met their 90-day mark during this reporting period, 100% showed overall improvement of the family’s wellbeing based on their baseline vs. 90-day Self-Sufficiency Matrix results. • Provided 160 families with resource and referral services. These are families that do not require intensive services but have multiple needs that can be met in a shorter period of time compared to case managed clients. • Of the resource and referral families served, 94% reported an improvement in the family’s well-being as demonstrated in the survey results that gauged family stress, understanding of community resources, and overall connectedness to the community.

This grant provided funding to continue our core program of ensuring that CASA volunteers provide vital one-on-one support for children and youth who are removed from their homes by a local judge for severe abuse and/or neglect. The CASA stays with the child throughout the life of their child welfare case. CASA volunteers are trained to gather information and focus their advocacy to support the needs of the whole child, including placement, physical and mental health, education, permanency, and well-being. Supporting normalcy for their CASA children is a key component of this support. CASA volunteers impact homeless rates by ensuring that teenagers and young adults in foster care have the resources and skills they need to secure safe and stable housing as they transition out of foster care. The funding from this grant helped to cover rent costs for the CASA office, providing a gathering space for collaboration and working partnerships to ensure we are coordinating services and offering the best possible support to some of the most vulnerable children in the county. Our offices provide crucial infrastructure for the training, supervision, and direct service-delivery efforts of our staff and the CASA volunteer advocates. In addition, our staff and volunteers regularly meet and collaborate with partner agencies, social workers, and department heads. Staff and CASA volunteers also utilize the office to attend court hearings, which remain on Zoom. In this grant period 2023-2024, SLO CASA supported 167 volunteers who were assigned to 241 foster children Approximately 24 of those children were placed in the city of San Luis Obispo, and 38 volunteers resided in the city of San Luis Obispo. In this grant period, we held 21 Information Sessions attended by 143 community members. We trained and swore-in 51 new CASA volunteers, which exceeded our goal for the grant period. As part of our commitment to offering inclusive and equitable services for all, SLO CASA has dedicated efforts over the last 12 months to improving cultural competence and inclusivity related to our outreach efforts. As part of this effort, we completed the following activities: • Redesigned our over-the-street banners and our brochures to feature male and Latino volunteers, and to include text in both Spanish and English languages. • All staff, board and volunteers completed DEI training (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) this fiscal year in collaboration with an external trainer. • Our Executive Director participated in an interview on a Spanish-speaking local radio station and a local news station featured a story that resulted in 18 new volunteers signing up for an information session, half of whom are men. • Our Training Manager spoke to the Pismo Coast Association of Realtors with 87 attendees and the Retired Active Men of SLO meeting with 64 attendees. • In April our Executive Director spoke on the “soapbox” at the Good Morning SLO event hosted by the SLO Chamber of Commerce • In June our Advocate Supervisor who is both male and Hispanic/bilingual, along with our Training Manager spoke at Mission San Luis Obispo de Tolosa and Saint William’s Parish Church at their Spanish masses to share about the need for Latinx and bilingual volunteers, along with CASA information tables at both locations. They also tabled at the Nipomo SWAP Meet. Page 204 of 279 2 • Various CASA staff tabled at Pride festivals for 2 days in June and 2 days for the Makeshift Muse Markets, where they interacted with a wide range of people. • We have diversified our social media presence to include posts in both English and Spanish • Our Executive Director and a CASA board member attended a networking mixer organized by Diversity SLO to recruit BIPOC volunteers and board members. During the grant period we also held 10 in-service trainings for volunteers, many in collaboration with partners. Trainings included: • Transitions Mental Health Services • AB12 services for transitional aged youth • Suicide Education Prevention • "Dealing with Difficult Teen Behaviors" • “Cool Aunt” series: understanding human-trafficking, for which foster youth are at heightened risk. • Motivational Interviewing • Protective Factors • Supporting the child through reunification • Depression and Anxiety in foster youth • LGBTQIA+ provided by GALA Pride Center. We expanded our teen Mentor Program to hold 6 support groups for 24 volunteers serving teens. The support groups allow CASA volunteers to cultivate a supportive atmosphere for learning and sharing with their peers. This is particularly important and impactful for volunteers serving high-risk teens, a complex and challenging population with high needs who are likely to face homelessness when they “age out” of the foster system. CASA staff organized and held activities for teens in foster care, including: • Job Readiness • Teen Cooking class • FAFSA workshop • Basic financial literacy • Life Coach focused on identifying positive and attainable employment/ life goals 100% of volunteers surveyed reported that the Mentor Program has increased their abilities to more effectively build relationships and advocate for teens.

Program: FAMILY SUPPORT SERVICES/THERAPEUTIC FOSTER CARE Administrator's Report: (A brief synopsis of the activities of the reporting period, including a statement of the activities, service or programs provided as described in Exhibit B (your grant application) using the Grants-In-Aid provided, and any changes that have occurred during the reporting period. As of Dec 31, 2023, FCNI has expended the entire $5,000 funded through the SLO City GIA. Grant dollars were used to support seven foster care clients residing in the City of San Luis Obispo, and their respective foster parents, with placement stability. The SLO City GIA funded supported youth in the following programs: Wraparound Therapeutic Parent (WTP), Wraparound Foster Care (WFC), and Intensive Services Foster Care (ISFC). These programs serve high -needs, at-risk youth in their transition from a higher level of care (e.g., juvenile justice placement, hospital, group home, or a more restrictive placement) back to family, to independent living, or to a long-term placement option. To help them be successful in returning to a lower level of care, these youth are first placed within one of these programs to receive support in adjusting to family-living, developing stronger life skills, and stabilizing their behaviors in preparation for reunification or independent living. Foster parents who serve in these programs work as part of a larger treatment team and are highly skilled in providing trauma -informed care to support the healing, stability, skills development, and mental health wellbeing of the youth entrusted into their care. Your grant funding directly assisted these foster parents to care for seven local youth in need of safety and stability, helping to transform their lives, and improving their chances of living healthier, more productive futures. Statistical Report: (This section should include the number of clients served, their cities of origin, the nature of services provided, as well as any other statistics which are kept by the agency. The total number of clients served also should be broken down by the type of service received.) The grant funds were expended on seven foster care clients and their foster parents all living within the City of San Luis Obispo . Funding covered critical housing and placement costs associated with caring for these youth, including home and transportation needs and Page 215 of 279 repairs; critical supplies for the overall health of youth; increased access to enrichment and mental health activities and experiences; basic needs including clothing, school supplies/materials/fees, and safe childcare when needed, and anything else a youth would need to feel safe, cared for, and in a position to move forward from difficult circumstances.

If operations or service provision have changed, please disclose, and explain the reasoning and response to changes in this section.) During the grant year, Ombudsman provided significant services to care facility residents. Services included: facility monitoring visits, complaint investigations and resolutions, information and assistance, individual and systemic advocacy and witnessing advanced health care directives in skilled nursing facilities. Residents and their families frequently reported that they were very pleased with our services and deeply appreciated the help we provide to them. We have been able to train and retain six new volunteers Ombudsman. These Ombudsman will help us provide services in a timely manner to clients. Since COVID, this is the first significant increase in our Ombudsman volunteers. We are very happy to have these new volunteers join our program. We have not had any changes in our program staff. We have five paid staff, 3-full time and 2-part time. The staff have 71 years of combined Ombudsman experience. This significantly exceeds the state and national average for Ombudsman staff retention. In September 2023, the State Ombudsman office performed a Program Review of the San Luis Obispo County Long Term Care Ombudsman Program. The 50-page Review report is extensive and shows that we meet or exceed every Ombudsman program standard/requirement. More importantly, we were the first program in California to have no negative findings, or areas to improve or a plan of correction. Members of the HRC, HRC Staff and City Council are welcome to visit the Ombudsman office for more information about our program. Members may also join an Ombudsman in a “Ride-along” to a care facility to see first-hand the condition of facilities in San Luis Obispo and to see how our services are delivered. Please contact Karen Jones, Executive Director/Program Manager to set up a visit (805-785-0132). Page 224 of 279 2 Statistical Report: (This section must include 1) the metrics reported as descried in Exhibit A (your grant application) and 2) the demographic data collected through the surveys. LTC Ombudsman Services is under the authority of the State Long Term Care Ombudsman Office at the CA Department of Aging (CDA). We are a single purpose non-profit agency that has the contracts to provide the services in San Luis Obispo County. We are mandated by Federal Rules and the Older American’s Act to follow the policies and procedures of the State Ombudsman. In 2018, due to AB 959 which required CDA programs to collect demographics regarding LGBTQ clients, the State Ombudsman office provided verbal and written direction stating that Ombudsman programs, including our program, do NOT to collect any demographic data on our clients. Here is an excerpt from the email we received on February 2, 2018, from the State Ombudsman’s office: “The Department of Aging and local area agencies on aging are moving to come into compliance with AB 959, which requires the collection of voluntary self-identification information pertaining to sexual orientation and gender identity of clients. However, because the Ombudsman Program does not collect demographic data for the residents we serve, the bill does not apply to us.” As a result of this directive from the State Ombudsman office, we have not been able to collect demographic data since 2018. This is very challenging for grant requirements, and we appreciate the HRC, HRC staff and City Council’s understanding of this issue.

Senior Legal Services Project (SLSP) continues to provide legal advice, representation and community outreach throughout the City and County of SLO. SLSP continues to prioritize seniors at risk of losing safety, housing, and independence. Primary areas of assistance were housing, consumer finance, elder abuse, and planning for incapacity (statutory wills, powers of attorney for finances and advance health care directives). SLOLAF staffed the SLSP program part-time with a Staff Attorney, along with our Legal Director of Civil Law Services (who functions as the project Directing Attorney). SLSP also had three attorney volunteers who typically see clients by appointment in the SLO office, in senior centers around the county, or by phone. Thanks to some additional funding from our main funder, Area Agency on Aging, we’ve been able to increase outreach efforts, holding monthly seminars in county senior centers on topics of interest for seniors. Our volume of cases has increased as a result, and we are also able to devote more hours to assisting seniors with this additional funding. Statistical Report: (This section should include the number of clients served, their cities of origin, the nature of services provided, as well as any other statistics which are kept by the agency. The total number of clients served also should be broken down by the type of service received.) SLSP provided direct legal services ranging from advice and consultation to full representation to 328 clients last year who reside in the County of San Luis Obispo, 82 of whom were residents of SLO City (25% of SLSP’s total caseload). Of the 328 clients served, ages are: • Age 60-64: 45 • Age 65-74: 140 • Age 75-84: 106 • Age 85+: 37 71% of SLSP’s clients last year were female, 29% were male. 34 clients were veterans. 186 clients lived alone. Page 248 of 279 SLSP provided legal services to clients with the following legal issues: • Housing: 129 • Elder Abuse/Domestic Violence: 8 • Powers of Attorney/Advance Health Care Directives/Wills: 146 • Bankruptcy/Debt Collection/Consumer Finance: 34 • Other (elder abuse, individual rights, family, health care, employment, misc.): 11 In addition, we provided limited advice and referrals to approximately 332 seniors during the fiscal year. Many additional seniors received education through multiple community outreach events and six presentations at senior residential facilities, and several community partners learned about our services. 2,421 hours of legal services were devoted to SLSP this year. Financial report: (A financial statement detailing how the City's grant money has been expended or plan to be expended.) The City's grant of $7,000 was deposited into the organization's general operating account, earmarked for SLSP (we use QuickBooks and segregate programs by class code).

Page 249 of 279 Exhibit B City of San Luis Obispo Grant Recipient Report Template Midyear Report Due: January 10, 2024 - Year-End Report Due: July 10, 2024 Grant Name: Human Services–affordable housing production Grant Year: FY 2023-24 Type of Report: Midyear Report (check box) End-year Report (check box) x Organization: Smart Share Housing Solutions, Inc. Project Name: Affordable housing production assistance program support Administrator ’s Report: (A brief synopsis of the activities of the reporting period, including a statement of the activities, service or programs provided as described in Exhibit A (your grant application) using the business grant provided, and any changes that have occurred during the reporting period. If operations or service provisions have changed, please disclose and explain the reasoning and response to changes here. Smart Share Housing has continued creative affordable housing production activities with Human Services grant funding. While all three program activities have continued, focus and $8400 expenditure during this period has been on areas 2 and 3, below. The agency has used state and private donor funding during this period to fund the program 1, HomeShareSLO operating activities. The state (Cal Home funding) ended during this period, so City funding will be essential for future program operations: 1) Provision of HomeShareSLO housing services to residents in the city of SLO, assisting mostly lower income single seniors to age in place through renting their extra bedroom. Added rooms at below market rents add to housing stock and prevent homelessness. 2) Educational support toward increased production of affordable accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and tiny houses on wheels (THOWs) in City resident backyards. These can provide affordable, energy efficient housing without public subsidy. Development and construction is daunting, however. Community workshops in Smart Share's new demonstration tiny house on wheels (THOW) in San Luis Obispo educated and inspired residents and City staff and policy makers on how this efficient, affordable housing can work. 3) Development of the Waterman Village, twenty 100% affordable homes around a restored historic adobe on Dana St. which will house vulnerable lower income residents. Statistical Report: (This section should include 1) the metrics reported as described in Exhibit A (your grant application) and 2) the demographic data collected through the survey shared by the City.) 11 partially City funded workshops between July 1-December 15, 2023, with 39 SLO City residents attending have helped residents understand options for accessory dwelling units and tiny houses on wheels in their backyards. Because the process is cumbersome and often takes years to complete, it is difficult to assess the outcome of these efforts in the short term. As noted in the mid-year report, workshop attendance numbers were lower than anticipated. As such, workshops in 2024 will be reduced and SSHS seeks no City funding for workshops this year. 1 Page 250 of 279 Waterman Village Development included production of architectural renderings & drainage and engineering reports. The development application was deemed complete by the City in Spring 2024, and SSHS anticipates bringing the project to public hearings at CHC, ARC and PC in fall 2024, in anticipation of construction commencing in 2025 in partnership with the City of SLO. The Waterman Village will bring 20 permanent homes to the City’s affordable housing stock, with a minimum 55 year affordability period, along with renovation of an existing boarded up, vacant historic resource and neighborhood accessible garden. Financial Report: (A financial statement detailing how the City's grant funding has been or planned to be allocated.) The Human Service Grant award totaled $8,400. This total amount was spent in the first 6 month period of the project term, as reported in the half-year report: 11 ADU Workshops total Outreach/PR 3 hrs/event@$35/hr=$105 Planning/coordination: 3 hrs/event@$35/hr=$105 Materials/supplies: $100/event Site prep & Event costs: 2 staff/total 8 hrs@$35/hr=$280 Total: $590/event x 11 events=$6490 x 50% of total event costs ADU workshops total: $3245.
