55%
of
the
in
shelter
population
due
to
bed
shortages
and
nationally
the
top
three
forms
of
bed
and
are
the
following:
permanent
supportive
housing
elder
and
rapid,
rehousing,
rapid
rehousing
and
particular
has
grown
by
60%
percent.
Over
the
last
five
years.
The
national
alliance
concluded
that
these
forms
of
bed
inventory
indicate
a
national
trend
towards
the
housing
first
model,
as
recommended
by
the
national
alliance,
when
they
did
our
assessment
for
buncombe
county.
The
grass
below
reflect
the
bed
inventory
trends
in
buncombe
county
hmong
hmis
participating
agencies.
E
The
graph
on
the
left
gives
you
temporary
housing
bed
inventory.
You've
got
an
emergency,
shelter,
transitional
housing
and
they
have
a
category
called
safe
haven
beds.
There
are
no
safe
haven
beds
in
buncombe
county.
So
that's
why
you'll
see
the
blue
line
at
the
very
bottom,
but
basically
emergency,
shelter
and
transitional
housing
has
had.
E
E
D
E
Just
want
to
make
sure
I
use
the
right
words.
Safe
haven
is
defined
as
temporary
housing
that
serves
households
experiencing
homelessness,
who
might
be
exceptionally
hard
to
reach
with
severe
mental
illness
and/or,
who
are
experiencing
unsheltered
homelessness
and
have
been
unable
or
unwilling
to
participate
and
other
types
of
temporary,
permanent
housing
and
or
shelter
and
and
the
original.
G
E
E
E
Comfortable
with
those
standards
are
willing
to
to
cooperate
with
that,
and
also
their
implications
for
what
clients
are
asked
to
sign
what
the
homeless
are
asked
to
sign
in
their
release
of
information,
in
terms
of
giving
permission
for
their
information
to
be
shared
with
other
agencies.
If
we
expand
sharing
privileges,
then
it
allows
us
to
improve
coordination
of
services
between
agencies.
E
E
E
It's
a
big
emphasis
on
entry
and
exit
dates
in
two
different
types
of
programs
and
when
a
client
is
receiving
receiving
services
is
from
different
programs.
Sometimes
those
are
dates
or
overlapping,
which
is
decimal,
ow
allow,
and
so
then
we
have
to
clean
it
up.
So
if
agencies
are
able
to
see
who's
been
enrolled
in
what
program
that
may
conflict
with
the
program
that
they
want
to
enroll
the
client
in,
and
it
gives
us
the
ability
to
figure
out,
what's
going
on
at
the
time
to
make
sure
that
they're
capturing
data
correctly.
E
To
the
city
of
asheville
has
legal
department
for
them
to
review
and
make
sure
they
don't
have
any
concerns
about
it.
Also,
we
will
be
we're
meeting
with
agency
execs
for
them
to
review
these
documents
to
make
sure
they
don't
have
any
concerns
about
what
they
look
like.
Once,
we've
done
this
exploratory
effort
effort
to
see
the
level
of
interest,
we
will
come
back
to.
E
E
E
Conduct
some
trainings
and
then
our
goal
is
to
implement
this
by
october,
1st
first,
because
that
is
the
start,
the
headline
and
that's
one
of
the
recommendations
that
we
got
in
terms
of
if
a
coc
decides
to
implement
sharing
agreements,
it's
usually
better
in
that
for
data
and
reporting
purposes
to
execute
it
at
the
beginning
of
the
hood
year.
I
don't
know
that
there's
any
motion
needed,
but
we
wanted
to
make
sure
that
at
this
point
the
board
was
aware
that
we
are
going
to
be
approaching
agencies.
E
E
Data
they
collect
on
you.
However,
there
are
writers
in
the
community
that
are
not
hmis
agencies
that
we
try
to
coordinate
your
care
with,
and
therefore
we
are
asking
permission
to
allow
us
to
work
with
those
agencies
as
well,
but
they
are
not
going
to
actually
have
access
to
hmis
is.
It
would
only
be
through
conferences
and
case
working
calls
where
the
information
would
be
shared.
E
Could
be
shared
with
on
that
roi?
That
is
one
of
the
issues
that
were
struggling
a
little
bit
with
is
the
how
the
wording
exactly
should
look
and
how
generic,
because
there
is
advice
that
you
can't
have
a
generic
roi
that
says
you
can
share
it
with
anybody.
You
that
you
think
you
want
to
involve
at
the
same
time
is
going
to
be
difficult
to
list
all
possible.
E
E
A
C
Our
training
and
capacity
building
work
that
we're
doing
on
our
team
as
part
of
my
role
as
training
and
development.
I'm
going
to
be
working
to
develop
this
annual
training,
calendar
and
training
plan,
and
so
part
of
the
purpose
of
those
trainings
are
to
build
capacity
to
cover
a
few
areas.
We
want
to
increase
provider,
provider
capacity
and
knowledge
and
support
14
people
at
seeing
homelessness.
We're
going
to
look
at
best.
