Funding and
Investments
Background
The system modeling conducted for the Home
Together 2026 Community Plan estimated the
amount and cost of homelessness response
system inventory needed to fully meet the
needs of people experiencing or at risk of
homelessness in Alameda County by 2026.
Over five years, the Plan shows a need for
a cumulative $2.5 billion in investments to
support homelessness system operations.1 This
translates to a growth in annual operational
funding that supports programs and services
from just over $270M in Year 1 (FY21–22) to
approximately $730M by Year 5 (FY25–26).
The funding investments tracked as part of
the Year 2 Home Together progress update
include data collected from Alameda County
and cities about funding awarded or received
in FY22–23 that was allocated for programs,
services, operations and inventory within the
homelessness response system.
1 This estimate is for operations only and does not account for development/
capital costs or other programs and services not included in the Home
Together System Modeling.

Year 2 Homelessness Response
System Funding by Recipient
and Source
Table A-1 (previous page) shows total
funding used for homelessness response
related activities received by Alameda
County and local jurisdictions in FY22–23
(Year 2).
Figure A-1 shows locally generated funding
that was allocated towards homeless
programs, services, and inventory in Year
2, by jurisdiction that invested the funding.
Locally generated funds include county
or city general funds, including funding
generated from sources such as local tax
measures, etc.
It should be noted that some of the funding
allocated to Alameda County, such as the
State Homeless Housing, Assistance and
Prevention (HHAP) grant, is sub-awarded (in
part) to cities throughout Alameda County.
Data in Figure A-1 includes funding as
allocated to the original recipient (and does
not indicate how funds may have later been
sub-allocated).
As Figure A-2 illustrates, more than 50%
of homelessness response system funding
received in Year 2 came from the State
of California, 28% was awarded from the
Federal government and 20% of funding
came from locally generated revenue. This
indicates a proportional decrease in State
funding and a proportional increase in
Federal and local funding since Year 1. This
shift is likely a result of the temporary influx
in one-time State funding received during
the COVID-19 pandemic (including grants
for capital development such as Homekey),
which are no longer represented in Year
funding investments.

compared to Year 1 for operating programmatic
activities included in the Home Together system

of the Home Together target achieved in Year
2, the funding gap that exists between actual
investments and the investment target, and the
proportion of funding that is nonrecurring (one-

a) See Home Together Year 1 Progress Update Report for additional notes on Year 1 calculations.
b) Includes $6.4M in RRH rental assistance subsidies and $2.3M in RRH supportive services.
c) Nonrecurring amount is comprised of $160K in RRH rental subsidies and $45K in RRH supportive services.
d) Includes $49.2M in PSH tenant-based rental subsidies, $35.5M in project-based operation costs, and $37.7M in PSH case
management/supportive services.

Capital and Other Program
Investments
Data in Table A-4 highlights the difference
in funding received in Year 1 and Year 2
for programs not included in the Home
Together system modeling. These include
some service programs such as prevention
and street outreach, as well as capital
investments to develop new shelter and
permanent housing inventory.
As Table A-4 and Figure A-5 show, capital
investments awarded in Year 2 were significantly
lower than what was allocated in Year 1. This
difference is attributable to the infusion of one-
time capital development funds received in Year
1 associated with pandemic-related programs.
a) Prevention funding tracked as part of the Home Together Plan implementation only includes investments targeted towards people experiencing or at risk of
homelessness. Therefore, funding for broader sources of emergency rental assistance or legal support for general low income populations at risk of eviction are not
included in the estimates of eviction prevention and emergency rental assistance presented in this report.

Category Category Type Definition
Program Activity RRH — Rental
Assistance
Funding to cover security deposit and rental assistance for households in rapid re-housing.
RRH — Services Funding to cover case management and stabilization services for households in rapid re-housing.
Shallow Subsidy Funding to cover shallow rental subsidies, providing a partial rent payment on behalf of an eligible tenant to
reduce the household’s rent burden and increase their available income.
Street Outreach Funding to provide street outreach, street health, supportive services and case management/housing navigation
support for clients in unsheltered locations.
System Infrastructure Funding that supports system operations, including (but not limited to) development of new IT systems or improvements to existing systems, staff to support system administration (e.g., CoC board staffing, Coordinated Entry Staffing, HMIS Administrator staffing), stipends for people with lived experience, provider training or capacity building support, etc.
Transitional Housing for Youth Temporary housing and appropriate supportive services geared toward transition age youth to facilitate movement to permanent housing.
Unknown Program activities to be supported by the funding are not yet determined.
One-Time or Recurring/Renewable
One-Time A one-time appropriation or grant not expected to be funded in future years. The funding may have a multi-year expenditure or draw-down period, but would still be considered one-time if it’s not anticipated to be funded again in future years.
Recurring/Renewable Funding that is expected to continue in future years (i.e., once appropriated, it is assumed to be part of the
baseline budget in future years).
Existing or
New Inventory
Existing Inventory Funding that supports existing units or subsidy slots, such that the inventory remains at a steady state.
The inventory may serve new people over time (due to turnover of slots), but the funding does not
provide new inventory.
New Inventory Funding that supports the creation of new/additional units or subsidy slots.
Baseline + Some New Some amount of funding is used to support existing inventory, but a portion is used to expand inventory. This
will typically be the case when a funding source increases substantially from one year to the next (i.e., beyond
inflation adjustments designed to cover rent increases for the current inventory).
