This is a 1-year contract position with an opportunity for renew based on funding.
ORGANIZATION BACKGROUND
The Department of Health Services (DHS) Housing for Health (HFH) program is a cohesive team of clinicians, community advocates, program administrators, and other professionals who collaborate with multiple County departments, community-based service providers, cities, and other partners to provide housing and critical services to People Experiencing Homelessness (PEH) and those who have previously experienced homelessness. HFH works to meet the needs of people with complex health and behavioral health conditions.
PROJECT BACKGROUND
In late 2022, in response to the continued homelessness crisis in Los Angeles County, the Los Angeles County Departments of Health Services (DHS), Mental Health (DMH), and Public Health (DPH) came together to form regional, field-based, multidisciplinary teams called the Interim Housing Outreach Program (IHOP) to address gaps in behavioral health and physical health services among functionally disabled People Experiencing Homelessness (PEH) who are living in interim housing (IH) and connect them to stabilizing services (such as in home caregiving, higher level of care, or enhanced care management/community support). The IHOP teams will comprise of both medical and behavioral health staff and will prioritize and expedite social and housing navigation services in all eight (8) Los Angeles County Service Planning Areas (SPAs). The DHS teams will be funded through a 5-year grant from the state-sponsored Housing Homeless Incentive Program (HHIP) and administered through the two largest Medicaid managed care plans (MCPs) in LA County: LA Care and Health Net.
As part of the initiative for IHOP, Housing for Health will sponsor the Activities of Daily Living (ADL) program to increase access and support for PEH with ADL needs in interim housing (IH). These teams will perform comprehensive assessments of high-risk PEH in IH settings, refer them to supportive services, increase their function and safety within their current environments, and assist them with transitioning them to higher levels of care, as appropriate. The IHOP teams will serve clients in shelters, motels, and tiny homes located in all eight Service Panning Areas (SPAs) in Los Angeles County. DHS-sponsored IHOP staff, hired by the DHS Housing for Health (HFH) program, will include advanced practice providers, nurses, emergency medical technicians, and occupational therapists.
The IHOP assistant staff analyst (ASA) will be a critical member of the IHOP data and evaluation team who track the services rendered by the IHOP team and conduct impact analyses for key stakeholders.
