Accomplishments
Family Housing Assistance Program (FHAP) rehoused 49 families with children who were experiencing homelessness. On average this was completed within 88 days of enrollment. This is a 32% improvement over prior year where the average was 131 days.
- Of the families in the program, 50% of the adults increased their income through the team’s workforce development services.
Successfully transitioned the entire Community Connections Division into the St. Petersburg Human Services Office and outposted community sites to increase efficiencies, saving the County approximately $118k per year in leasing costs.
Human Services assisted local hospitals with their participation in reimbursement enhancement programs for the Hospital Directed Payment Program (HDPP) and the Low-Income Pool Program (LIP). Staff coordinated with internal and external partners to define and establish the infrastructure to support supplemental pay programs for the hospitals and helped with participation in both the FY24 opportunity and the FY25 opportunity to benefit the hospitals. The combined assessments are estimated to return an additional $250 million in revenue for the participating hospitals.
