W FILE Members of the City Commission SUBJECT Ordinance accepting $16,000 iw�for outreach services to Homeless Guantanamo FROM Edward Marqu REFERENCES Refugees City Manager ENCLOSURES RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached ordinance establishing a special revenue fund entitled 'Outreach to Homeless Guantanamo Refugees" in the amount of $16,000. This is a grant to the City of Miami Office of Homeless Programs. The funds come from Metropolitan Dade County's Department of Human Services through the Community Partnership for the Homeless, Inc. BACKGROUND: In September 25, 1997, Metropolitan Dade County selected the Community Partnership for the Homeless, Inc. (CPHI), as an 'Immigration Emergency Grant' recipient. The award was made as a one year, performance based grant, to provide outreach, shelter and services to homeless Guantanamo refugees. CPHI and the city's Office of Homeless Programs collaborated in the grant proposal. The City of Miami's Office of Homeless Programs will engage and refer homeless Guantanamo refugees to the Homeless Assistance Center. This is a 35043ed facility which CPHI operates. The homeless Guantanamo refugees will be able to participate in a Continuum of Care System that includes services such as medical assessments, case management, transitional and permanent housing. The opening of the Homeless Assistance Center (HAC) in 1995, marked an important step in the implementation of the Dade County Homeless Plan. We must ensure that the HAC continues to assist the homeless population that lives in the City of Miami. The Office of Homeless Programs needs to carry on the monitoring of the placements made at that facility. The City's Office of Homeless Programs will utilize the funds to expand services to homeless Guantanamo refugees throughout the city. The outreach teams will ensure that this population is contacted and transported to the Homeless Assistance Center as well as to other service providers. 11442 ' _mot MIAMI DAILY BUSINESS REVIEW PubNMsd Daly New Saturclor.
