MissionThe Organization's mission is to ensure that individuals and families experiencing homelessness or the risk of homelessness are able to access housing services and resources on their path to economic stability. The Organization is the lead agency for the Sacramento Homeless Continuum of Care and administers and oversees grants for homeless related programs in Sacramento County which are received from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and are passed through to various non-profit organizations as sub-grants. The Continuum of Care Program is designed by HUD to promote community-wide commitment to the goal of ending homelessness. Since becoming the lead agency in the Continuum of Care in 2011, the annual level of grant funding provided to the Sacramento community by HUD has increased by five million dollars. This funding supports twenty-two permanent supportive housing programs and retains housing and supportive services for people who were previously homeless.MissionDesc

DescFacilitate Access to Shelter, Housing & Services1. Implemented a Coordinated Access SystemIn late 2022, the Coordinated Access System (CAS) was launched through a partnership among Sacramento Steps Forward, 2-1-1, the City of Sacramento, and Sacramnto County. This initiative aimed to create a streamlined and accessible support system for individuals experiencing or at risk of homelessness. The CAS has been instrumental in connecting service providers and partners, fostering efficiency and a person-centered approach. Aside from facilitating quick access to emergency services, the initiative also prioritized preventing homelessness proactively. In its inaugural year (ending in December 2023), the prevention program assisted 805 households in obtaining or retaining housing, with an average investment of $3,114 per household. Remarkably, 85% of these households remained housed after one year, showcasing the effectiveness of the prevention efforts.2. Supported a Youth Homelessness Demonstration ProjectIn late 2022, the Sacramento Continuum of Care (CoC) was chosen to participate in HUDs Youth Homelessness Demonstration Program (YHDP). This initiative brought a $6,509,295 award to the Sacramento region, providing crucial funding and technical assistance to craft and execute a unified community strategy to prevent and end youth homelessness. Central to the success of the YHDP is the active engagement and leadership of youth throughout the planning and implementation phases of the program. Under this initiative, a Coordinated Community Plan was developed, and funds have supported many housing programs including rapid rehousing, permanent supportive housing, transitional housing, and host homes.Desc

DescIncrease Capacity & Knowledge1. Facilitated the Sacramento Homeless Policy Council Launched in 2021, the Sacramento Homeless Policy Council (SHPC) was established to foster regional collaboration among leaders to combat homelessness. The SHPC brings together elected officials from across Sacramento County and representatives from Sacramentos Continuum of Care community. Sacramento Steps Forward facilitates quarterly meetings of the group to foster discussion and partnership on strategic and practical responses to homelessness in our region. The SHPC serves to accelerate knowledge sharing and best practices and to provide a forum for the public to observe the efforts and impacts of providers and partners involved in the homelessness response system.2. Implemented Provider and Partner TrainingsIncreasing the capacity of homelessness service providers within Sacramentos Continuum of Care (CoC) network is a primary objective of our work. In addition to ensuring that our frontline organizations receive training to keep them current and compliant, we also address relevant issues within the community including response to natural disasters and public health emergencies. Trainings focus on program best practices in housing or homelessness-related, policy developments, adjacent issues such as behavioral health or domestic violence, and mainstream resources to, for instance, ensure quality client service. Housing Problem Solving trainings exemplify our commitment to continuous quality improvement. We refine each training session based on feedback from the previous one. These quarterly sessions also empower Partners with Lived Expertise to teach providers effective ways to converse with clients, enhancing the overall impact of our work.3. Guided the Housing Families First CollaborativeThe Housing Families First Collaborative is a strategic initiative funded by the Bezos Day 1 Families Fund and the California Interagency Council on Homelessness to address family homelessness in the region. This collaborative effort, guided by the proven Built for Zero model, focuses on identifying, assisting, and monitoring families facing homelessness by implementing systems-level changes, enhancing service and housing access, and prioritizing racial equity. In partnership with the Black Child Legacy Campaign and as part of a county-wide initiative to prevent child deaths, the collaborative is enhancing targeted services and support for the Black and African American community. The collaborative also brings together experts in various relevant fields, including individuals with lived expertise of homelessness, to ensure a comprehensive and inclusive approach to tackling family homelessness.4. Partnered on a Homeless & Health Systems PilotCollaboration with health systems is essential for an effective homelessness response system. In 2020, Sacramento Steps Forward entered into a partnership with the four regional systems in the county: UC Davis, CommonSpirit Health (formerly Dignity Health), Kaiser Permanente, and Sutter Health. A pilot program titled Healthcare and Homelessness, supported by the national group Community Solutions, provided the opportunity for us to explore common interests and innovative solutions. A primary goal was to develop collaborative cross-sector relationships that would contribute to reductions in the number of individuals experiencing homelessness in Sacramento County. Collectively, we gained a greater understanding of the challenges and opportunities the community faces in housing persons and families and helped develop shared strategies to address these challenges. Three programs evolved from the pilot, including a CalAIM and Community Supports program to provide resources for recuperative care, housing navigation, and tenant support, an emergency department navigator program, and the development of a private funders collaborative.Desc

DescLead Community-wide Planning & Engagement 1. Launched the Local Homeless Action PlanThe Sacramento Local Homeless Action Plan (LHAP) was launched in early 2022 in response to the states third round of funding for the Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention Program (HHAP-3). Sacramento Steps Forward spearheaded this initiative in collaboration with the Sacramento City and County Continuum of Care, Sacramento County, City of Sacramento, and Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Agency. The plan fostered a unified, cross-jurisdictional approach to tackling homelessness throughout Sacramento County. Together, we convened a diverse group of community leaders and stakeholders representing various interests to develop an actionable, relatable plan that serves as a roadmap for future funding and initiatives. Updating the Plan to incorporate a more comprehensive regional approach began in late 2023, resulting in the All In Sacramento Regionally Coordinated Framework and Action Plan to Prevent and End Homelessness which will launch in 2024. 2. Hosted First All In Sacramento ConferenceBuilding upon the collaborative efforts outlined in the Local Homeless Action Plan, a regional conference was convened in April 2023 to host an All In rally, uniting the Sacramento community to collectively address homelessness. Community leaders, service providers, volunteers, and advocates gathered to engage, network, and strengthen bonds. Through a series of presentations, we conveyed the plans overarching goals, shared specific elements within the upcoming activities, and set the stage for communications throughout the rest of the year. The conference was both a celebration of existing efforts and a catalyst for launching a new era of collaboration.3. Supported the Continuum of Care InfrastructureIn serving as the Continuum of Care (CoC) agency for Sacramento, we coordinate and support all aspects of this Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) responsibility. Launched in 2012, the CoC Program is designed to assist individuals and families experiencing homelessness and provide the services needed to help such individuals move into transitional and permanent housing, with the goal of long-term stability. Sacramento Steps Forward provides the infrastructure to carry out these mandates by supporting the 30+ member board of directors, ten committees, various in person and virtual meetings, and robust communications. Addtionally, in this role, we serve as the Collaborative Funding Applicant for federal and state funds, lead agency for the Homeless Management Information System (HMIS), and operator of the Coordinated Access System. In 2021, the Sacramento CoC Board held its inaugural annual meeting, a live virtual event that included many community members and featured breakout working sessions. We convened virtually the following year, but 2023 enabled a hybrid, half-day event, bringing together more than 100 people for learning, collaborating, and networking both in-person and virtually. During these forums, we heard from people with lived experience of homelessness, those on the front lines of response as service providers, and those leading regional-level planning. We discussed progress and how to better coordinate efforts and share knowledge. These gatherings have served as essential opportunities to strengthen our collective resolve and capacity to create positive change.Desc

Form And Line ReferencePart X : FIN48 FootnoteFormAndLineReferenceDesc
ExplanationThe Organization is exempt from federal and state income taxes under the Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3) and Section 23701(d) of the California Revenue and Taxation Code. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been included in the accompanying financial statements.The accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under that guidance, the Organization may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of the Organization and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income (UBIT). The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities at December 31, 2023 and 2022.ExplanationTxt

Form 990, Part III, Line 4dOTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 4: Facilitate Access to Shelter, Housing & Services1. Implemented a Coordinated Access SystemIn late 2022, the Coordinated Access System (CAS) was launched through a partnership among Sacramento Steps Forward, 2-1-1, the City of Sacramento, and Sacramnto County. This initiative aimed to create a streamlined and accessible support system for individuals experiencing or at risk of homelessness. The CAS has been instrumental in connecting service providers and partners, fostering efficiency and a person-centered approach. Aside from facilitating quick access to emergency services, the initiative also prioritized preventing homelessness proactively. In its inaugural year (ending in December 2023), the prevention program assisted 805 households in obtaining or retaining housing, with an average investment of $3,114 per household. Remarkably, 85% of these households remained housed after one year, showcasing the effectiveness of the prevention efforts.2. Supported a Youth Homelessness Demonstration ProjectIn late 2022, the Sacramento Continuum of Care (CoC) was chosen to participate in HUDs Youth Homelessness Demonstration Program (YHDP). This initiative brought a $6,509,295 award to the Sacramento region, providing crucial funding and technical assistance to craft and execute a unified community strategy to prevent and end youth homelessness. Central to the success of the YHDP is the active engagement and leadership of youth throughout the planning and implementation phases of the program. Under this initiative, a Coordinated Community Plan was developed, and funds have supported many housing programs including rapid rehousing, permanent supportive housing, transitional housing, and host homes. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 5: Improve Equity, Fairness, Efficiency & Effectiveness1. Convened the Partners with Lived Experience CommitteeThe Partners with Lived Expertise Committee (PWLEC) originated from the 2022 Racial Equity Plan and comprises individuals who have directly experienced homelessness, representing diverse racial backgrounds and facing multiple intersecting barriers to housing. Serving as a vital bridge between the homelessness response system and those experiencing homelessness, the PWLEC focuses on fostering relationships and driving transformative, equitable change. This committee acknowledges and addresses the profound impact and inherent trauma associated with factors such as race, gender, socioeconomic status, and others that can contribute to homelessness. As such, the PWLEC plays a crucial role in advising policies and practices for our community, with members deeply committed to instigating both personal and systemic-level change.2. Established Community-Wide StandardsSacramento Continuum of Care, and the Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Agency to establish community-wide standards for publicly funded programs addressing homelessness in Sacramento. These standards, published in December 2023, were developed through collaborative efforts shaped by community feedback and adopted by the Sacramento Continuum of Care following a vote among diverse board members. Serving as a guiding framework, they strengthen the foundation for homelessness prevention and assistance programs, and advance our collective mission to ensure consistency, equity, and quality of services in our community.3. Facilitated Homeless & Healthcare Integration through CalAIMCalAIM, the California Advancing & Innovating Medi-Cal, catalyzed a shift in homelessness and healthcare, prioritizing equitable, coordinated, and person-centered care. Through the Housing and Homelessness Incentive Program, Sacramento Steps Forward initiated the integration of CalAIM Enhanced Care Management and Community Support services into our local homeless response system. In 2023, we initiated monthly workgroups and workshops, convening stakeholders to streamline coordination and enhance service delivery, addressing challenges and aligning resources to meet the needs of individuals experiencing homelessness. We also directly collaborated with Medi-Cal managed care plans and health system partners, connecting dozens of service providers with essential resources, reinforcing our communitys response to homelessness and advancing our shared commitment to sustainable solutions. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 6: Manage Funding & Compliance1. Manage Federal CoC & YHDP Funding AwardsIn our role as the lead agency for the Sacramento Continuum of Care (CoC), we play a crucial role in overseeing the federal funding process, from initial application to ongoing monitoring, compliance, and reporting. We lead an extensive public process within the CoC to identify eligible housing activities and projects for funding. Once selections are made, our team collaborates closely with chosen agencies and projects to ensure strict adherence to funding regulations, providing guidance on proper fund use and helping to report on these investments outcomes. Our objective is to fulfill our HUD-mandated responsibilities while ensuring that projects are executed with maximum efficiency and impact.2. Manage State & Local Funding Our role as the CoC lead agency also places SSF at the forefront of funding management for state and local awards and contracts. The Homeless Housing, Assistance and Prevention (HHAP) series of funding opportunities through the State of California has provided the funds for many of the system improvement in the accomplishments listed earlier. Our committed staff ensures that these funds are utilized effectively, with integrity, and to achieve maximum impact.
