Agency physical address: 3333 E. Van Buren St. Phoenix, AZ 85008 Agency representative contact information: Rosanne Donovan, rdonovan@umom.org, (480)330-4816 Founded in 1964, UMOM is Arizona's largest provider of services for families experiencing homelessness. UMOM’s mission is to end family homelessness by restoring hope and rebuilding lives. UMOM serves approximately 75% of all families experiencing homelessness in Maricopa County in our shelter program, and nearly 16,000 individuals across all of our services annually, including those families receiving support at the Family Housing Hub (FHH), Maricopa County's family coordinated entry system. UMOM is a community provider of shelter, supportive services, and affordable housing. Our programs are built around a simple formula: Jobs + Housing = Ending Homelessness. We work hand-in-hand with every person we serve to solve that formula alongside them. From emergency shelter to affordable housing, UMOM offers a full slate of vital services, rooted in a foundation of trust and proactive support. And as a part of that trust and support, we work side-by-side with our clients to solve their housing crisis holistically, recognizing that each situation requires a personal touch and listening ear. Our unique approach is empathetic, connection-focused, and individualized. With the support of Maricopa County, we will be able to continue to serve the 170 families that we house each night with the essential services they need to end their homelessness. During our last fiscal year (July 1, 2021 - June 30, 2022) UMOM provided the following services and support to homeless families and individuals in our community: - 16,000+ people were assisted with shelter, housing, and outreach programs. - 263,103 nutritious meals were prepared and served on our campus. - 896 adults exited with employment. - 593 families were served at our Family Emergency Shelter. Proposal: Emergency Shelter Describe the proposed service program: Tonight, there are 148 families experiencing homelessness in Maricopa County that are waiting to escape the unsafe environment of living on the streets, sleeping in their cars, or residing in unstable living situations. These families are seeking safety, stability, and hope for the opportunity to pursue a better life. Due to the lack of shelter resources, these families can expect to wait on average 5 weeks before getting the call that a shelter unit is ready for their family. UMOM believes that our community cannot allow for parents and children to be living on the streets, waiting weeks or months to access a high quality and low- barrier shelter. UMOM is respectfully requesting $320,000.00 of funding from Maricopa County for our Family Emergency Shelter Program. UMOM's Family Emergency Shelter Program is designed to provide safe temporary shelter for the most vulnerable and at-risk households with children experiencing homelessness in Maricopa County. This funding will go towards Salaries & Employee Expenses of Family Emergency Shelter Staff, Contract Services (Boys & Girls Club of the Valley, Phoenix Children’s Hospital, & Security), and Facility Costs. UMOM provides Emergency Shelter for unhoused families (170 each night) in Maricopa County, with the ultimate goal of assisting them to attain and maintain permanent housing thus ending their homelessness. While these families are residing in shelter, UMOM provides for their immediate needs by offering each client with intensive individualized support. That support includes: x Employment services to help individuals secure and maintain employment. x 1-on-1 case management. SERIAL 230114-RFP x Advocacy with property management companies, landlords, courts, and partnering agencies. x Connection to community resources. x Access to 19 meals per week, produced and served by our residential dining staff. x On site medical care, in partnership with Phoenix Children’s Hospital and Circle the City. x After school programming for school aged kids, provided by Boys & Girls Club of the Valley. The hope is that by offering these services to UMOM clients, it enables them to exit shelter to permanent housing as expeditiously as possible. The goals of UMOM’s Family Emergency Shelter are: to target the right housing intervention for each family, remove barriers to housing, exit them to housing as quickly as possible, and ensure they are stable enough to keep from returning to the homeless service system. Service delivery model including information indicating program feasibility to deliver the services being proposed. At UMOM we believe that everyone deserves the opportunity for a better life, that is why UMOM utilizes the Housing First philosophy throughout our shelter program. UMOM has the least restrictive criteria of any other family emergency shelter provider in Maricopa County and offers a service-rich environment to meet the needs of the most complex families. Each family that receives services at UMOM’s Family Emergency Shelter, is first given the VI-SPDAT assessment at Coordinated Entry/Family Housing Hub. This assessment is used to identify the appropriate intervention for each family to ensure that their homelessness is brief and non-recurring. This tool is used nationally to follow the Housing First approach and identify client’s barriers to accessing housing. We use the Housing First Approach to focus on moving clients into housing as soon as possible while providing housing-based service supports (i.e. Workforce Development programs, employment and education support). This strategy is an evidence-based practice show to successfully help end homelessness. UMOM’s emergency shelter program is designed to end homelessness for the most vulnerable and at-risk households in Maricopa County, and following a Housing First approach, we strive to get families back into housing as quickly as possible. UMOM’s unique client centered, service-enriched, and housing focused approach to programming ensures that engaged families have the highest likelihood of exiting to permanent housing as well as maintaining that housing. The UMOM approach to client engagement is inclusive of being trauma- informed and approaching households through a motivational interviewing lens. This approach empowers our direct service staff to build meaningful relationships with their clients that results in a higher likelihood of reconnecting with family and friends that can offer permanent housing alternatives that might otherwise not be explored. All UMOM’s specialists go through Trauma-Informed Care and Motivational Interviewing training on an annual basis, this gives them the training and knowledge to best service the most vulnerable households in our community. Target population UMOM’s target population served at its Family Emergency Shelter is families with dependent children, or a woman in her third trimester of pregnancy. Our shelter is located in Phoenix, and we serve families from throughout Maricopa County. The shelter program serves people of all ages, genders, and ethnicities, as well as veteran families and victims of domestic violence. We accept all people regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, or marital status. We do not restrict access to shelter because of alcohol, drugs, lack of income, criminal history background, or because a family has a pet. We also offer accessible facilities and resources for those with disabilities and special needs. Our Family Emergency Shelter Program is designed to end homelessness for the most vulnerable and at- risk households in Maricopa County. UMOM receives 100% of our referrals into the Family Emergency Shelter Program from the Coordinated Entry System for Maricopa County. Therefore, every family that enters UMOM’s Family Emergency Shelter is homeless. The demographic race breakdown of clients served in our Family Emergency Shelter programs are 47.6% African American, 26.5% Latinx, 18.1% Caucasian, 5.4% Native American, 0.6% Asian, 1% Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander, and 0.8% Other/Unknown. The breakdown for ethnicity is 66% Non- Hispanic/Non- Latino, 33.3% Hispanic/Latino, and 0.7% Unknown. We serve people of all ages: 60.85% SERIAL 230114-RFP are children (under 18), 6.14% are Young Adults (18-24), 32.22% are Adults (25-61), and 0.78% are Seniors (62+). Approximately 16% of the people we serve are disabled; thus, all UMOM facilities are ADA-compliant. Timeline and proposed dates of activities/service delivery: UMOM anticipates being able to expend the Maricopa County funding to support Family Emergency Shelter starting 07/01/2023 (the beginning of the fiscal year) and will exhaust funding by 06/30/2024. Given that UMOM already serves up to 170 families per night, and over 500 families/1500 individuals per year there would be no delay in expending funding starting day one of the grant cycle. The programming described within this application is on-going and essential to UMOM as an organization. We are committed to serving homeless families within our community. Performance goals, program deliverables, and desired outcomes, including anticipated number of people experiencing homelessness or at risk of experiencing homelessness to be served. UMOM’s reputation as a valued and trusted partner results from our commitment to being data-driven and outcome accountable. UMOM is committed to using data to drive our decision making and as a result has invested in talent and systems to align our program efforts with our organizational strategy. UMOM has a Data and Evaluation Department dedicated to the collecting and analyzing of data in order to drive real-time decision making, improve program performance, and allow for healthy organizational learning. UMOM’s performance improvement and evaluation strategy includes the ongoing review of progress on key indicators of success toward program outcomes using monthly program dashboards for staff at all levels to monitor program performance. UMOM has the following performance targets for our Family Emergency Shelter Program: 1. 80% of emergency shelter clients will exit to permanent housing. 2. 80% of adults will maintain or increase total income at program exit 3. 70% of adults maintained or increased earned income at program exit. 4. 90% of adults will be connected to mainstream benefits 5. 120 days of less = Average length of stay in shelter As we recover from the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen many of performance targets trend toward our percentage goals. However, as rental prices become more and more expensive in the Phoenix Area, we have seen the average length of stay get longer as it takes residents more time to find housing that they can afford and save up for the deposits needed to move in. It is by analyzing our performance targets that we are able to tailor the services we provide to our clients each day. x 80% of emergency shelter clients will exit to permanent housing. o 6% increase from FY 20/21 performance. x 58% of adults will maintain or increase total income at program exit (earned income plus other income sources). o 4% decrease from FY 20/21 performance. x 45% of adults maintained or increased earned income at program exit. o 4% increase from FY 20/21 performance. x 91% of adults will be connected to mainstream benefits in the community at program exit. o 1% increase from FY 20/21 performance. x 111 days = Average length of stay in shelter. o 32 days increase in average length of stay from FY 20/21 performance.

UMOM partners with local providers to connect clients with the most appropriate services and essential resources in the community, to support the outcome of our mission to end family homelessness. We leverage the expertise and experience offered by our partners to ensure that clients receive the highest level of care. Through our Employment Center we partner with organizations and companies to bring employment training and opportunities to our residents. We believe in building strong partnerships with employers within our community, to bring employment opportunities directly to our clients. The Employment Center hosts job fairs each week, where UMOM participants can meet with employers directly. UMOM, in partnership with Phoenix Children’s Hospital (PCH) ensures that children living in shelter have access to immunizations, medical care, vision and hearing screenings at our on-site Wellness Center. Circle the City shares the Wellness Center space with PCH to provide adult clients with medical care they need while living in shelter. Further, Midwestern University’s medical school provides vision and dental care for adult clients. We partner with the following agencies to provide mental health services: Empact/La Frontera, Community Bridges Inc., Community Family Services, and Open Hearts. All referrals are done online, and an ROI is completed by the UMOM Case Manager to better assist the participant and allow us the opportunity to co-case manage the participants for their success. The Boys & Girls Club of the Valley provides after-school and summer programming to youth (5-18) living at UMOM’s Family Emergency Shelter. Once youth move out of shelter into permanent housing, they receive a 1- year membership to the Boys & Girls Club of the Valley closest to their new home. Department of Economic Security (DES) holds on-site office hours for clients to update their case plans, apply for SNAP, and apply for DES Child Care assistance. UMOM will continue to seek out new partner agencies, and work more collaboratively with our current partner agencies, to provide additional services and further leverage and maximize resources. Collaboration with Maricopa County: UMOM has a strong relationship with Maricopa County. UMOM participates in the Maricopa Regional Continuum of Care in various ways. Maricopa County is also a stakeholder in the CoC and through various committees and working partnerships, UMOM, Maricopa County and other partners work collaboratively to improve our region’s homeless response system. We also actively participate in the Maricopa County Emergency Shelter work group. SERIAL 230114-RFP Last year UMOM received funding from the county to support our Workforce Development Program and increase the amount of shelter beds at our Family Emergency Shelter. This funding has greatly affected families in our community experiencing homelessness. UMOM was awarded funding through the Maricopa County Workforce Development Job Seekers Initiative. UMOM recognizes that employment, especially reliable, well-paying careers in high demand fields are key to ensuring that our participants can maintain their housing and support themselves and their families. This funding has allowed UMOM to concentrate on researching high-growth, high-demand employment opportunities in the Phoenix Metropolitan Area. Further this funding has supported employment assistance and childcare assistance for our families. With funding for Additional Shelter Beds from Maricopa County UMOM was able renovate existing buildings, at our Family Emergency Shelter. This funding went toward renovating eight shelter rooms that were serving the average three-person family, to being able to accommodate a family of 6+. Along with renovating the building that was once our childcare facility into eight additional shelter rooms for larger families. By renovating and adding these shelter rooms, UMOM has added an additional 72 shelter beds per night and allowing us to serve 288 additional individuals each year. These renovations have also given us a blueprint as to how we move forward with renovating the remainder of the shelter rooms on our Family Emergency Shelter campus. We are grateful for the support and our ongoing partnership with Maricopa County. UMOM looks forward to continuing to work with the county to support those families in our community that so desperately need our help. Describe the contractor’s experience in providing the proposed services and/or working with people experiencing homelessness or at risk of experiencing homelessness. The vision of UMOM is to be a leader in breaking the cycle of homelessness. UMOM has 59 years of experience serving the homeless population in the Phoenix Metropolitan area, including 30 years of experience operating a full-service emergency shelter. UMOM effectively leverages its programs spanning coordinated entry, shelter, housing, and supportive services to holistically serve the most vulnerable individuals and families in a coordinated and efficient manner. For the families in our community that are experiencing homelessness, we know that housing combined with income will provide an end to their homelessness. Describe how the contractor will provide services for people experiencing homelessness or at risk of experiencing homelessness. Services that are appropriate to the language and culture of those we serve: It is the policy of UMOM New Day Centers, Inc. to work and provide services in a culturally competent manner and to recognize, respect and respond to the culturally defined and linguistically-appropriate needs of persons and families. Our agency understands the role of cultural values, beliefs and behaviors in an individual’s development and works to eliminate cultural, ethnic, and racial bias. UMOM understands, respects, and promotes the contributions and value of culture and diversity among its staff and clients. All cultures are to be openly welcome and valued, and multiculturalism is appreciated and practiced. At UMOM we believe that: x All families and individuals have strengths and challenges. x All families and individuals have a culture that guides their behavior. x All families and individuals contribute to the broader community through their culture. x Our similarities as humans are as important as our cultural differences. x The richness of all cultures enriches our lives. UMOM provides regular in-service training to staff on a variety of topics, including diversity, cultural sensitivity and culturally appropriate services. In addition, consent forms, major intake documents, program descriptions, rules, guidelines, client satisfaction surveys, and other documents are available in English and Spanish. Our Case Managers utilize a interpreter hotline in the event that a resident speaks a language other than English or Spanish. SERIAL 230114-RFP UMOM’s staff reflects those we serve and includes those with lived experience. For example, the large majority of our Helpings Café and Catering staff (full-time employees) are Homegrown Training graduates. UMOM makes a conscious effort to hire a diverse and reflective workforce, in an effort to better serve our residents. Services provided to homeless individuals across Maricopa County: All families seeking assistance in Maricopa County are referred to UMOM through the FHH, which is operated by and located next to UMOM’s Family Emergency Shelter. The FHH is the single point of entry for families experiencing homelessness. UMOM has relationships with organizations throughout the Valley to help inform residents in other cities about the services available through the FHH. UMOM was selected to be the lead agency in creating the family centralized intake system by the Maricopa County homeless services sector agencies and the Maricopa Association of Government's Continuum of Care, because of our longevity of service and expertise. Prior to COIVD-19 all intakes were done in person with a Service Priority Specialist at the Family Housing Hub. Since March 2020, the FHH staff have implemented intakes by phone. This change has given access to those families that do not have reliable access to transportation or live far from the FHH main office or satellite location. Now, 90% of intakes are done over the phone, allowing us to serve more families in our community that are in need of housing assistance. Describe the policies and practices in place to ensure diversity and inclusion in access to services. We believe that equity, diversity, and inclusion efforts are a work in progress. We know that building and sustaining diversity requires an ongoing commitment to inclusion that must find full expression in our organizational culture, values, norms, and behaviors. We must be proactive, forward-thinking, and establish a true foundation for a diversity initiative that is flexible and reflective of UMOM’s unique culture. UMOM’s efforts around addressing racial equity as well as DEI on a broader scale is guided through an employee- led Advisory Group that reflects team members for all walks of life and levels in the organization. The Advisory Group’s objectives include deepening UMOM’s capacity to infuse the issues of equity and inclusion into policies, practices, programs, services, and structures. Additionally, the group recommends strategies and advises the Executive Leadership Team to ensure progress toward all UMOM programs and practices being representative of the needs of the diverse community we serve. UMOM’s DEI strategy has three defined phases: closing the obvious gaps, understanding who our employee and clients are, and action/implementation. We have been successful with our phase 1 initiatives over the last year, and we will be moving into phase 2 initiatives in FY 23. Since 2021, UMOM has made a series of changes related to proactively addressing racial equity in the overall system. UMOM activated a series of trainings related to DEI efforts for all current & new employees including bridging the diversity gap, understanding unconscious bias, and your role in workplace diversity. Additionally, UMOM will be expanding its training portfolio within the next year to include a course on understanding and addressing racial trauma in behavioral health. UMOM published a DEI glossary for the entire organization to access to ensure we are creating a shared understanding around terminology and language as we move through our efforts to become a more inclusive organization. UMOM established a new partnership where all UMOM’s internal and external documents, including program information, can be translated in culturally appropriate and relevant languages based on our client’s needs. UMOM is also planning to create a new position of DEI Manager in the future to expand our efforts around diversity, equity, and inclusion across the organization. Last year, UMOM established a DEI Statement at the organization level and issued a statement from the CEO indicating UMOM’s commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. UMOM’s DEI statement reads: “We believe that our mission is most effectively fulfilled through a commitment to inclusiveness as a value and practice. We are a values-driven company that believes in diversity, equity, and inclusion for our staff, clients, and community partnerships. We strive to lead by example, viewing and encouraging diversity as a fundamental strength of homeless services.” Describe policy(ies) in place to provide equal access to programs and services for individuals with disabilities, and what reasonable accommodations are in place in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and Equal Access to Housing Final Rule.
