Programs FY 2023/24 Housing and Human Services Grant Program Goodness Village <br />✔ Report 1 submitted: 1/4/2024 <br />Un-Submit <br />1. Name of person completing the report. <br />Kim Curtis <br />2. Title. <br />Executive Director <br />3. Telephone and e-mail. <br />9252371108 <br />4. Describe the project/program funded with this grant, the current status of the project/program, and any significant <br />actions taken during the reporting period. <br />The village remains home to 19 of our original 28 neighbors. Since June 2023 to today we have had one neighbor that we had to ask <br />to exit the program. We also had a neighbor exit on his own in late March of 2023. This allowed us to move 2 new neighbors in to the <br />village who were unsheltered in Pleasanton. One in his car (unsheltered 11 years) and the other residing in a tent (unsheltered 10 <br />years). Both have woven themselves in to the culture of the village and are actively engaged in the program. Today we have 9 <br />neighbors who were identified as unsheltered in Pleasanton prior to moving to the village. They have all met with a case manager to <br />develop a needs assessment and an individualized support plan. They are between the ages of 36 and 75 years old. <br />5. Describe any challenges or delays encountered with the project/program, as well as any changes to your <br />project/program design, operations, and/or staffing. <br />Our staffing has shifted over the past 6 months due to promotions and one leader leaving due to terminal diagnosis. The change <br />disrupted the village briefly however we were able to destabilize. Our biggest necessity at this time is the community center. Our <br />neighbors need a space for their wellness and recovery groups and activities. Our current space is too small to include more than a <br />few neighbors at a time and for this high level population space is needed to avoid escalation and conflict due to mental health and <br />trauma experiences. We believe the community center will allow for great recovery and opportunities for our neighbors to <br />successfully transition to a less supportive environment in the future. Another challenge is Crosswinds has increased our shared land <br />cost to cover expenses. As of today we are paying $9400 a month for the land and office space as well as between $5-6k a month in <br />utilities. This was a $4400 increase per month than last year. <br />FY 2023/24 Housing and Human Services Grant Program USD$ 500,000.00 Available <br />Deadline: 1/20/2023 <br />Goodness Village <br />Goodness Village <br />USD$ 57,720.00 USD$ 57,720.00 Requested <br />Previous Submitted Application <br />Next Submitted Application <br /> <br />Report 1  <br />Due date (mm/dd/yyyy) 1/16/2024 <br />Report 1 not required <br />Powered by ZoomGrants™ <br />City of Pleasanton
