The goal of King County F-SHARP is to improve housing and clinical stability for homeless families with SMI, SED, or COD by providing Critical Time Intervention (CTI) services including outreach, integrated mental health and substance abuse treatment, support to enroll in health insurance and other public benefits (e.g., Medicaid, SSDI, SNAP, VA, etc.), and recovery-oriented supports coupled with units of Housing First Rapid Re-Housing (RRH) as identified by King County’s Coordinated Entry for All (CEA) system. Objectives will include the degree to which: • CEA referrals result in F-SHARP engagement and service enrollment • Interventions have been implemented to fidelity • Participants are enrolled in Medicaid or other health insurance, and, using SOAR, are enrolled in SSI/SSDI and other benefit programs • Participants obtain and retain housing • Adult participants reduce mental illness and substance use symptoms • Children in homeless families are connected to needed services F-SHARP expects to serve 40 unique family households per year for each of the 5 years of the project for a total of 200 families. With an average of 1.5 adults per household, this would equate to 60 adults served per year and 300 adults served throughout the life of the grant, plus approximately 500 children who would also benefit from family services.
