Description
Program Year 2022 Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER)
A
All
right,
hello,
everyone,
so
thank
you
for
joining
us
this
morning
to
go
over
the
Consolidated
annual
performance
and
evaluation
report,
also
known
as
Caper.
My
name
is
Sarah
vieetta,
formerly
known
as
Sarah
Chua
and
I
am
the
community
liaison
officer
with
Community
enhancement
on
the
call
with
me
today.
A
As
you
can
see,
we
have
Dan
and
we
also
have
Nick
Fike,
who
will
be
doing
the
presentation
presenting
some
key
points
about
the
Caper
before
we
open
it
up
for
some
comments,
any
questions,
any
feedback
and
the
draft
of
the
Caper
is
available
on
our
website.
So
there
is
an
online
form
that
can
be
used
to
submit
any
comments.
If
you
don't
get
a
chance
to
say
anything
today
or
remember
something
later
on,
it's
the
same
form
that
you
use
to
register
for
the
meeting,
except
for
as
of
today.
A
The
registration
for
the
meeting
is
no
longer
shown.
So
any
questions
about
that.
Let
me
know
I'll
go
ahead
and
include
the
link
to
our
website
where
the
draft
is
and
where
the
link
is
to
submit
any
comments,
and
the
last
day
to
submit
any
comments
would
be
September
27th.
At
5
PM,
so
you
have
until
then
to
to
share
anything,
give
any
feedback,
so
Nick
I'll
go
ahead
and
turn
it
over
to
you.
B
So
the
Caper
is
another
part
of
accepting
HUD
funds.
We
do
this
every
year
at
the
end
of
our
program
year,
which
is
July
June
30th
is
when
the
year
ends
up
the
county
calls
the
program
year.
22
is
what
HUD
calls
it,
but
the
county
calls
it
fy23.
So
those
are
the
same
things
and
it's
just
a
chance
for
us
to
go
over
what
was
completed
and
tally
up
and
total
up
those
things
and
somewhat
of
a
I
won't
say
somewhat.
B
You
can
see
how
much
money
we
had
available
at
the
beginning
of
the
year,
and
some
of
this
is
our
annual
Awards
and
allocations
from
HUD,
but
some
of
it's
also
prior
year,
funds
that
our
co-worker
Jessica
went
through
and
reprogrammed.
Also,
we
had
those
funds
for
this
year,
so
we
had
a
little
bit
more
than
we
received
from
HUD
this
year
and
I.
B
B
We
were
able
to
do
a
lot
more,
so
that
number
is
you
see,
82
and
some
of
our
nonprofits
had
a
little
bit
more
money
that
they
are
continuing
to
use
in
the
next
six
months,
so
that
number
overall,
for
what
we
had
last
year,
we'll
go
up
a
little
bit.
That's
in
the
face
of
higher
labor
costs
and
higher
construction
costs,
but
that
won't
necessarily
be
the
case
I
think
in
in
fy24
we
had
one
home
that
Aggie
Walker
acquired
rehab
and
had
finally
sold
at
the
tail
end
of
this
year.
B
So
that's
kind
of
just
for
the
bulk
of
our
housing.
Things
and
I
just
want
to
show
you.
You
know
what
these
housing
rehab
projects
in
a
kind
of
a
big
picture
way
boil
down
to
so
a
lot
of
that
is
accessibility,
stability
and
Longevity.
So
how
do
you
keep
a
person
in
the
unit
and
how
do
you
make
sure
the
unit?
How
does
the
unit
fit
the
person
and
how
fit
is
the
unit?
B
So
the
picture
on
the
left
here
is
this:
was
a
person
had
very
old
Carpeting
and
they
were
Aging
in
place,
so
their
house
needed
it
got
some
window
improvements,
but
a
bigger
thing
for
them?
Was
it
needed
to
have
a
smooth
floor
that
wasn't
a
tripping
Hazard?
So
that
was
a
big
thing
to
remove
that,
so
the
whole
house
got
new
flooring.
B
This
was
a
person
who
needed
a
new
ramp,
and
this
is
a
huge
ramp
for
someone
to
get
in.
This
is
a
major
project,
but
this
is
all
low
maintenance
materials,
so
it's
vinyl
and
composite
decking,
so
it
doesn't
have
to
have
any
maintenance
for
it.
This
lets
a
person
stay
in
their
home,
so
we
do
some
work
like
that,
but
this
is
kind
of
notable
for
the
extent
of
this,
and
then
we
also
do
a
lot
of
bathroom
upfits
and
changes.
B
B
So
this
is
another
example
of
a
home.
This
home
received
new
gutters
17
new
windows,
a
storm
door.
It
has
a
whole
new
HVAC
system,
so
this
was
a
much
more
robust
project.
This
is
what
we
call
a
comprehensive
home
repair
and
those
Building
Systems,
and
those
upgrades
should
one
keep
the
building
envelope
safe
and
secure
or
dry,
and
then
also
you
know
not,
there
shouldn't
be
any
major
fixes.
B
B
We
provide
funding
for
low
to
mod
income
students
through
our
partnership
with
communities
and
schools.
We
provide
some
funding
to
Homeward
to
help
with
homelessness
prevention,
and
we
also
provide
funding
to
list
through
their
financial
opportunity.
Centers
try
to
help
people
realize
all
the
incomes
and
benefits
they
might
have,
but
also
try
to
increase
their
wages
so
that
they
can,
you
know,
be
more
self-sufficient,
improve
their
housing
situation
and
other
things
like
that.
So
you
know
all
the
all
the
things
that
help
a
person
not
need
assistance
in
the
first
place.
B
One
of
our
programs
we've
talked
about
this
before
this
is
a
program
through
humankind.
Humankind
is
part
of
the
Presbyterian
Homes
I,
don't
know
how
to
describe
their
non-profit,
it's
based
in
Lynchburg,
but
they
have
a
big
Branch
here
in
Richmond
and
the
ways
to
work
program
is,
you
know,
also
a
kind
of
an
economic
and
financial
coaching
type
of
Enterprise.
Someone
comes
in.
B
You
know
they
try
to
assess
where
you
are
and
then
say:
here's
where
you
could
be
and
work
with
them
to
get
there
and
one
part
of
that
program
is
a
vehicle
loan
and
vehicle
purchasing
help.
So
this
is
rebuilding
someone's
credit
according
to
their
system
of
rebuilding
someone's
credit,
not
necessarily
that
of
the
three
big
credit
rating
agencies
and
then
helping
them
buy
a
car.
So
if
anyone's
bought
a
car
in
the
last
three
years,
you
know
it's
painful,
you
just
go
in
and
they
tell
you.
B
This
is
what
we
have,
and
this
is
what
you're
going
to
pay.
So
it's
a
bit
more
fraud
for
folks
who
are
buying
a
used
car,
so
they
help
with
that
too.
So,
both
your
credit
score,
your
funding
to
like
obtain
the
loan.
They
finance
it
and
then
also
help
finding
a
car
that
is,
you
know,
reliable
and
worth
the
money
you're
going
to
pay
for
it.
So
you
know
you
need
a
car
to
get
to
work
and
that's
why
I
love
this
program?
Is
it
it's?
B
This
year
was
also
the
last
year
we
had
CV
funding,
and
some
of
you
received
some
of
that
through
from
2020
through,
say
the
end
of
this
year,
and
you
know
we,
we
gave
money
to
health
Brigade,
which
helped
fund
load
a
mod
folks,
Healthcare
needs,
and
things
like
that.
I
mean
literally
over
the
three
years
that
we've
worked
with
them
with
TV
funding.
Thousands
of
people
have
taken
advantage
of
that
Latinos
in
Virginia
they
provided
emergency
payments
to
households
that
needed
help
with
food
or
utilities
or
rent.
B
B
We
also
provided
some
funding
for
humankind,
Communities
In
Schools,
to
have
programs
that
deal
with
pandemic
related
issues,
and
then
our
last
program,
which
is
going
on
now
be
done
by
the
end
of
the
year,
is
through
Chasm
or
Chasm,
the
Colonial
Heights
Alliance
for
Social
Ministry,
so
they
similar
emergency
payments.
Things
like
that,
but
Jessica
who's.
B
So
what's
next,
here's
just
kind
of
a
brief
list
of
who's
funded
in
this
current
year.
So
you
can
see.
We've
got
many
of
our
partners
that
we
we
funded
last
year.
We
also
have
some
facility
improvements,
we're
making
at
Camp
Baker
those
will
help
the
buildings
there
serve
more
load
of
mod
kids,
so
some
upgrades
in
a
track
and
things
like
that,
and
then
we
also
have
our
housing
so
down
payment
assistance
and
Rehab.
B
And
then
we
have
you
know.
I
just
want
to
point
out
one
of
our
new
things
is
this
distressed
property
acquisition
so
we're
trying
to
pull
together
our
code
enforcement
and
kind
of
blight
team
to
purchase,
and
then
you
know
make
available
for
a
future
homeownership
opportunity,
properties
that
are
in
severe
distress
and
neglect
in
the
county.
So
hopefully
we'll
have
something
available
to
record
on
next
year.
B
With
that
and
then
one
new
thing
here,
we
we
started
our
rental
assistance
program
with
a
giant
chunk
of
money
from
the
federal
government
during
the
pandemic
and
through
that
we
learned
I,
don't
know.
I
should
say
this
week
we
learned
over
and
over
and
over
again
that
a
lot
of
evictions
are
caused
by
not
a
lot
of
money
being
needed
for
someone,
and
so
we
we
have
a
partnership
with
acts
and
housing,
Families
First
and
our
department
of
social
services
to
try
to
meet
that
emergency
need.
B
So
they
have
some
funding
and
we
have
some
funding
and
I
think
the
max
is
maybe
a
couple
thousand
dollars,
but
for
a
lot
of
people.
If,
if
you
didn't
have
a
large
amount
of
deferred
rent
from
the
pandemic,
this
funding,
we
hope,
can
keep
people
in
their
house
and
avoid
eviction
kind
of
that
small
emergency
funds.
B
B
B
We've
also
really
tried
to
align
each
question
which,
with
a
review
criteria,
so
that
it's
very
specific
of
we're
asking
this
because
of
this,
and
you
can
see
how
we'll
rate
your
application
we're
trying
to
remove
the
need
for
excessive
amounts
of
background
information
from
the
applicants
to
you
know
put
that
in
an
appendix
or
something
like
that
and
really
help
you
just
focus
on.
What's
the
thing
you're
pitching,
and
why
do
you
think
we
should
fund
it?
B
B
Big
picture,
you
know
not
on
this
slide,
but
the
things
that
we
continue
to
see
in
our
community
are
population,
that's
aging,
and
what
that
looks
like
for
everyone
that
works
with
the
population.
You
know
we
work
in
Housing
and
Community
Development,
but
you
know
if
you
are
providing
a
service
or
selling
a
good
or
working
with
people.
You
may
have
seen
that
change.
B
Everything
from
we
don't
provide
tennis
lessons,
but
we
provide
a
lot
of
pickleball
lessons
to
you
know
we
just
go
out
and
help
people
with
basic
things
that
they,
you
know
we're
mowing
grass
for
people.
We
never
thought
we'd,
be
more
grass
we'd
clean
a
lot
of
gutters
out.
We
didn't
used
to
do
that
and
I
think
this
is
probably
introduction
that
the
county
is
going
to
have
to
start
thinking
about.
Is
you
know
who
does
what?
B
C
B
So
you
know
and
that
that
maybe
is
a
challenge,
but
it's
also
an
opportunity.
So
maybe
there's
some
new
businesses
and
new
functions
for
nonprofits
to
fill
another
challenge,
we're
having
and
I
think
you
know
everyone's
having
this
all
localities,
just
housing
for
younger
people,
new
families,
things
like
that.
B
B
So
you
know
that's
something:
we're
trying
to
work
with
our
team
and
planning
to
make
sure
we
build
homes
that
are
someone's
first
entry
into
the
home
ownership,
Realm
and
then
another
thing
we're
also
looking
at
is
our
zoning
modification
process
is
going
through
and
there'll
be
some
changes
from
that.
But
then
what
maybe
comes
back
to
that
with
regards
to
our
commercial
corridors
and
projects
that
we
may
have
in
neighborhoods,
that
are
along,
say,
Route,
1,
Midlothian,
Turnpike
a
whole
street
down
in
Ettrick
some
things
like
that.
B
So
you
know
those
are
kind
of
bigger,
Longer
term
things
that
we
have
on
the
radar
and
then.
Lastly,
we
have
another
pot
of
new
funding
called
home
ARP
and
we're
going
to
be
making
some
decisions
on
that
and
getting
that
you
know
programmed
and
provided
to
nonprofits
here,
I,
don't
know
next
three
to
six
months,
Jessica
will
be
back
to
facilitate
that
before
any
decisions
are
made.
B
D
So
I,
if
I
could
jump
in
so
my
name
is
Kelly
Kinghorn
I'm,
the
executive
director
of
Homeward.
We
are
funded
through
the
public
service
I'm,
also
at
Chesterfield
County
resident
of
long-standing.
So
first
I
want
to
say
thank
you.
I
love
your
process
and
I
actually
like
how
you
have
the
online
comment.
Form
I
do
have
some
written
comments
which
I've
emailed
to
Sarah,
which
may
not
be
helpful,
but
I
can
also
put
in
the
online
form
there's
just
a
few
things
on
page
15
of
the
Caper.
Just
some
clarifications
there.
D
But
there's
just
been
first
I
want
to
say
as
a
long
time,
Chesterfield
County
resident
in
the
Clover
Hill
district
I'm
just
really
impressed
with
the
housing
department
and
your
sort
of
partnership
with
a
community-based
non-profits
other
sister
agencies
at
the
county
and
really
looking
at
the
needs
of
just
sort
of
not
what
we
think
the
needs
might
be,
which
is
something
that
historically
Chesterfield
County
would
be
accused
of.
So
actually
understanding.
You
know
the
Aging
demographic
perhaps
changes
in
primary
language.
B
D
Like
the
strategies
that
go
from
home
ownership,
but
with
that
emphasis
on
helping
people
enter
the
market,
helping
people
age
in
place,
I
think
that's
really
particularly
important
in
Chesterfield
County,
our
demographics,
we
really
are
aging.
We
see
that
in
homelessness
as
well
and
then
really
supporting
people
at
the
with
extremely
low
incomes
and
HUD
terms,
right
that
we
know
that
homelessness
in
the
county
is,
you
know,
still
a
factor
every
day
in
our
community.
We
work
closely
with
Chesterfield
County.
D
You
know,
Department
of
Social
Services,
the
community
services
board
and
Chesterfield
County
Police
I
think
do
a
particularly
good
job
with
this.
Their
police
community
policing
unit
is
really
quite
good,
I'm,
not
sure
if
that's
worth
referencing
in
the
Caper
report,
but
just
to
note
so
I,
like
the
the
mix
of
strategies
and
I'll
just
put
again
another
yet
another
public
plug
for
the
approach
that
you're
taking
with
home
ARP
the
collaborative
approach,
the
regional
approach
and
really
being
targeted
to
maximize
those
dollars,
especially
now
post
pandemic.
D
When
we
know
how
limited
the
funding
is
to
really
help,
you
know
get
people
out
of
the
woods.
You
know
people
with
long-term
histories
of
homelessness.
People
with
disabilities
like
really
staying
focused
on
that
is,
is
it's
not
only
smart,
it's
also
compassionate
and
it's
a
good
use
of
program
like
the
HUD
grants
that
we're
talking
about.
So
thank
you.
D
One
other
thing,
I
think
you
know
in
Chesterfield
this
comes
up,
maybe
sometimes
what
I
I
also
really
appreciate,
just
on
homelessness.
Right
again,
I
mean,
as
professionally
speaking,
I
think,
keeping
the
emphasis
on
coordinated
services
that
are
connecting
people
to
permanent
housing
like
given
all
the
things
we
can
do.
D
They
do
that
with
the
police
department
with
Chasm
there's
a
lot
of
great
work
there,
but
really
focusing
public
dollars
on
housing,
Focus,
Services
right
and
not
just
like
managing
the
crisis
of
homelessness
or
just
doing
programs
that
meet
you
know
immediate
needs,
but
aren't
getting
at
the
long-term
housing
stability
of
residents,
who
are
our
neighbors
and
so
I
know
just
for
Ken
like
it's
always
it's
not
always
easy
to
say
no
to
a
program
like.
Oh,
we
want
to
do
transitional
housing
or
we
need
more
and
more
shelters.
D
We're
really
balancing
you
have
to
meet
immediate
needs,
but
also
make
it
possible
like
if
there's
a
front
door
to
a
shelter.
There
needs
to
be
a
back
door
and
that
back
door
is
housing.
So
I
just
want
to
publicly
like
underscore
the
importance
of
taking
that
strategic,
more
dignified
approach
to
addressing
the
crisis
of
homelessness
and
really
always
coming
back
to
what
makes
the
biggest
impact
long
term.
B
A
B
Thank
you,
everybody
and
non-profits
that
showed
up
it's
clearly
optional,
but
we
always
want
to
say
thank
you
so
much.
We
really
appreciate
the
people
that
are
dealing
directly
with
clients
and
services
and
those
challenges
day
in
and
day
out.
So
we
get
a
few
calls
here
and
there
with
people
needing
the
things
that
you
do
and
it
always
rattles
us
on.
So
we're
like
thank
God.
