SUMMARY
Housing for Health (HFH) is a program office within Health Services Administration, a division under the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services (DHS). HFH was created and put into implementation in support of the Los Angeles County Homeless Initiative recommendations in response to and in support of the County’s effort to address and combat homelessness in the communities residing within Los Angeles County.
The Homeless Prevention Unit (HPU) is a new initiative on the Housing and Services Team of HFH. The HPU is a collaborative effort between the California Policy Lab (CPL), DHS-HFH, and the Department of Mental Health (DMH). The HPU proactively identifies individuals who are most at risk of homelessness through predictive analytics and provides them with flexible, early interventions to resolve issues that might lead to the loss of their housing. The HPU has significant interactions with several County departments to address challenges navigating service systems and/or to connect or re-connect individuals to services to ensure housing stability; therefore, the ideal candidate will be knowledgeable in mainstream and specific programs and services tailored to people experiencing homelessness while being flexible to meet the changing needs and demands of the program.
This position will serve as a case manager for the HPU. Working closely with the HPU Program Manager and other HPU staff, this position will be responsible for outreaching and engaging individuals identified as at risk of homelessness that are referred to the HPU and implementing appropriate interventions and linkages.
