Standard (HQS) Inspections. Lead inspections are also conducted as a part of any grants or loans for owner-occupied or rental units funded through the City's Housing Rehabilitation Program (HRP). Actions planned to reduce the number of poverty-level families A primary strength of the housing and community development delivery systems is the coordination of efforts between the jurisdictions and the groups that oversee these efforts on an inter-jurisdictional basis. An additional strength is the level of coordination between service providers, particularly those addressing housing needs of the homeless, special needs populations, and housing providers. Pleasanton participates on the Alameda County HOME Consortium Technical Advisory Committee (HOME TAC) which is comprised of staff from the member jurisdictions and the County. The HOME TAC meets bi-monthly to discuss programmatic and policy matters relating to the HOME program as well as broader federal housing and community development funding sources. Many collaboration efforts are coordinated at the County level. The Shelter Plus Care and the Supportive Housing Program serve the homeless through housing rental assistance and supportive services and aim to reduce the number of people living in poverty in the County. Consortium jurisdictions are working to implement the EveryOne Home Plan, which includes representatives from local jurisdictions, service providers and advocates, homeless or formerly homeless persons, representatives of the faith community, business and labor representatives, education and health care professionals. The Workforce Investment Board emphasizes private sector, employer-driven job training programs. The Alameda County Self-Sufficiency Program is designed to operate as a single, integrated system for the delivery of work-first, employment focused services. It complies with federal Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) and Food Stamp Employment and Training requirements and incorporates CalWorks program services and activities. The Self- Sufficiency Centers provide employment services, transportation, child care, drug and alcohol abuse treatment and mental health services to help individuals comply with their welfare—to- work plans. The program encourages community partnerships to leverage and maximize funds, prevent duplication of service delivery, and develop the capacity of the community to sustain a safety-net for an expanding population. The HOME Program provides rental housing projects to assist households earning 60% or less of area median income. Priority considerations are given to proposals that include income targeting to households earning less than 30% of area median income, a target group that includes households living in poverty. Housing developments targeted to families and individuals in this income group often have a social services component to assist the households with other needs such as job training, skill building, case management, and subsidized child care.
