Subject: 2010 Memorandum of Agreement -Discharge Planning Grant Renewal
Purpose of Item:
It is respectfully requested that the Honorable Mayor and City Commission adopt the attached
resolution to create a Special Revenue Project to accept the Miami -Dade County Homeless Trust's
Miami Homeless Program grant "2010 Memorandum of Agreement -Discharge Planning", awarded to
the City of Miami's Homeless Assistance Programs in the amount of $340,000 for a period of twelve
months, and authorizes the City Manager to execute all documents necessary. The grant was awarded
to provide outreach, information, referral, assessment and placement services to homeless individuals
discharged from the Miami -Dade County's judicial court and public health systems.
Background Information:
The Miami -Dade County Homeless Trust, recognizing the need for intervention to prevent those
discharged from the criminal justice and public health systems from becoming homeless, established
the Discharge Planning grant to fund a service provider to provide a range of services designed to
address the needs of the temporarily and chronically homeless. The Homeless Trust, after a
competitive review process, chose Miami Homeless Programs as the grantee, to provide evening and
weekend outreach, housing assistance, and coordinate with the jail, prison, hospital, foster care,
mental health and emergency room facilities to provide appr2Lriate interventions.This is the renewal
of that initial grant with increased funding.
