TITLE: Presentation by Chris Johnson from Suncoast Partnership regarding Community Outreach.
Recommended Action
Presentation by Chris Johnson from Suncoast Partnership regarding Community Outreach.
Background Information
Commissioner Jill Luke has requested a presentation regarding a need for a Case Manager as a liaison for our Homeless Outreach Unit. There seems to be a ‘gap’ in being able to conduct the most effective level of service by our Homeless Outreach Unit. There appears to be a need for a ‘Case Manager’ to complete the program. Chris Johnson, at Suncoast Partnership, has been working on making this possible. There have been a couple of potential scenarios that could offer assistance to cover this ‘gap’. An open discussion needs to occur to see if it is something that the City/Commission wants to address.
