2008 Ryan White Housing Survey
On March 27, 2008, HRSA implemented a housing policy which would impose a 24 month lifetime cap on using CARE Act dollars for emergency and transitional housing assistance. The National AIDS Housing Coalition (NAHC) opposed the policy as originally proposed and in its final form. NAHC is working to reverse this policy but we need your help to build support in Congress to make sure that housing assistance remains a fundable and flexible component of Ryan White Part A and Part B funding. Members of Congress need to know how this policy directly affects their constituency. We are calling on you to help us provide that information with this very short survey. We are already hearing the impact of this policy. For example the Rhode Island Department of Health has hastily removed the housing component from their Ryan White grant RFP's, thus no longer making congregate housing assistance an eligible service for funding and resulting in the loss of thousands of dollars.
1.
How much of your Ryan White funds do you allocate for housing services?
2.
What is the average length of stay in housing (emergency or transitional) for your clients?
3.
Please tell us how you use your Ryan White funding for housing and how the new policy impacts or will impact your local jurisdiction, organization, current and prospective clients, etc.
Thank you for participating in this survey. NAHC looks forward to your responses regarding the new housing policy and intends to relay them to members of Congress. Please feel free to joing our e-mail list or contact us directly for more updates regarding this policy and others affecting persons living with HIV/AIDS. http://nationalaidshousing.org/
National AIDS Housing Coalition (NAHC) is a 501(c)(3) organization founded in February 1994. NAHC believes that persons living with HIV/AIDS have a fundamental right to decent, safe, affordable housing and supportive services that are responsive and appropriate to their self-determined needs. The purpose of the NAHC is to ensure that the diverse voices of those infected and affected by HIV are heard and their needs are met.
