Flexible Housing Assistance Fund. Let the system act the moment a door opens — when a landlord says yes, when arrears clear, when a deposit lands on time — and fill the financial gap for the 600–700 unsheltered neighbors who face money barriers to housing.
The Fund is the financial infrastructure beneath every housing placement. A single fiscal agent disburses against a pre-approved menu of costs, so a case manager who finds a unit on Tuesday isn’t forced to choose between losing it and waiting on a Thursday committee.
“When money moves at the speed of opportunity, more people get housed — and doors that are currently locked open.”
