This range of housing is a combination of new short and long-term subsidies and permanent housing units. The Plan also calls for a short-term surge in shelter availability while the system is simultaneously growing its inventory of permanent housing interventions to reduce unsheltered homelessness.1 It is important to emphasize that a decline in the need for shelter will come only when housing opportunities are available for people to move into and when unsheltered homelessness declines. 1 Detail about housing and shelter inventory needs in the Home Together 2026 Community Plan can be found at https://homelessness. acgov.org/homelessness-assets/docs/reports/Home-Together-2026_ Report_051022.pdf. Figure B-1 | Home Together System Inventory Needs vs. Actualsa a) Interim/Shelter Inventory includes Crisis Response (Emergency Shelter, Transitional Housing, Safe Haven) and Transitional Housing for Youth. Year 3 Homelessness Response System Inventory Figure B-1 shows totals for actual permanent housing and crisis response (shelter and transitional housing) inventory2 compared to annual targets set for Years 1, 2 and 3 of the Home Together Plan. 2 Permanent housing inventory in this figure includes Rapid Re-Housing, PSH, Dedicated Affordable Housing and Shallow Subsidies. Crisis response inventory in this figure includes Emergency Shelter, Transitional Housing, Safe Haven and Transitional Housing for Youth. See Table B-1 for more detail. 7,890 16,530 21,160 27,850 12,020 3,000 3,470 2,270 1,790 3,690 0 5,000 10,000 15,000 20,000 25,000 30,000 Year 1 (FY21–22) Year 2 (FY22–23) Year 3 (FY23–24) Year 4 (FY24–25) Year 5 (FY25–26) HT Inventory Needs HT Inventory Needs Permanent Housing Inventory Crisis Response Inventory Inventory Actuals Inventory Actuals 5,692 3,459 6,801 7,664 3,8663,298 27 Home Together 2026 — Year 3 Progress Update Home Together System Inventory Tracking Table B-1 shows detailed inventory totals for rapid resolution, interim and shelter programs, and permanent housing programs from Years 1, 2 and 3. The table also includes the percentage of the Home Together Year 3 (FY23–24) inventory target achieved for each program type. Inventory in Year 3 (FY23–24) for rapid resolution, crisis response and transitional housing for youth exceeds the targets set in the Home Together Plan for FY23–24; however, Year 3 permanent housing inventory is below target levels for all programs. Without sufficient expansion of housing opportunities, people who are sheltered cannot move out of homelessness, and the need for additional shelter will continue to increase.

The system model did not incorporate Eviction Prevention and other financial assistance programs at the time, as available funding for these program types was small, not specifically targeted to dedicated homelessness prevention, and not within the homelessness response system’s purview at that time. b) Supportive housing (PSH) includes Supportive Housing for older/frail adults. c) The 304 Shallow Subsidies come from programs funded by the cities of Berkeley (43), Hayward (46) and Oakland (215). 28 Home Together 2026 — Year 3 Progress Update Homelessness Response System Inventory by Jurisdiction, Year 3 The Oakland, Berkeley/Alameda County Continuum of Care (CoC) reports its Housing Inventory Count (HIC) annually to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The HIC reflects the beds and units known to the CoC on the night of the Point in Time Count of the given year (generally at the end of January). Table B-2 includes data from the 2024 HIC, updated through June 2024, showing inventory by jurisdiction, in program types tracked and monitored as part of the Home Together Plan.
