1 of 1 <br /> <br />7. Is this proposal a request for Public Services or Capital Improvement Project (CIP) funding? <br /> <br />8. Is your agency able to assess that your clients are "eligible beneficiaries" (i.e. low- and moderate-income <br />persons and/or "presumed" beneficiaries, according to the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development)? <br />If so, how? If not, please explain how you plan to assess whether your clients are "eligible beneficiaries". <br />Yes, REACH provides affordable housing to adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities classified in the extremely <br />low income category, 30% below BMI. <br /> <br />9. Provide the projected number of PLEASANTON CLIENTS who would be served by this program/project in fiscal <br />year (2024/2025). <br /> <br />10. Please list the total projected number of PLEASANTON CLIENTS your agency proposes to serve through this <br />program/project for each income category below in fiscal year 2024/2025. <br />(The total number of persons indicated in question #9 must match the total number listed in the income categories below.) <br /> <br />11. Provide a brief summary of the program/project, including the population served and how this population will <br />access this program/project, for which your agency is seeking funding. If you do not receiving funding, what would <br />be the impact? <br />As with past grant applications, REACH continues to seek funding for specific projects, major repairs as they may arise, <br />and/or home improvements for the six current and eight projected Pleasanton properties. These properties are located within <br />existing neighborhoods and provide inclusive shared housing for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities fostering <br />independent living. Projects are identified on the 2024 Annual Budget Document and in the Budget Narrative. <br /> <br />Since its founding over 30 years ago, the REACH business model, which has been extremely successful, requires raising <br />additional funds to meet the needs beyond normal and routine maintenance issues. REACH builds inclusive communities, <br />and residents are classified in “extremely low income” category, at or below 30% BMI. On average, individual rents range <br />between $350 - $500 per month. REACH is one of the very few nonprofits providing "affordable" housing for this underserved <br />population. Should REACH not receive funding, repairs and maintenance will take priority and any identified projects will be <br />evaluated individually and postponed until REACH has 100% funding <br /> <br />12. For this grant request, please list the agencies you will collaborate with, providing specifics on your <br />collaborative efforts. <br />REACH continues to have a successful partnership with Housing Consortium of the East Bay (HCEB) and has an <br />established, documented, effective and responsive Preventative Maintenance, Repair Program and Capital Improvement <br />strategy for each property. <br /> <br />As noted in past grant applications, for any minor or major repair issues, the “Work Order” process remains the same, which <br />is identifying and reporting any new property issues or resident needs to HCEB. <br /> <br />In addition to typical maintenance and repair issues and depending upon the specific home improvement projects identified, <br />REACH also has established partnerships with certified contractors and service providers who are familiar and trained in <br />working with the population we serve in the community, which are adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. <br />These partnerships bring efficiencies in client coordination, affordable rents, lower costs, vendor responsiveness, accurate <br />administrative reporting, and expedient resolutions of issues, whether they are resident, or property related. <br /> <br />During any rehabilitation or home improvement projects, REACH residents remain in their homes and continue with their daily <br /> Public Service <br /> Capital Improvement Project <br /> 20 # of Persons <br />20.0020.00 TOTAL <br /> 20 Extremely Low Income (<30% AMI) <br /> Very Low Income (<30-50% AMI) <br /> Low Income (50%-80% AMI) <br /> Moderate Income (80%-120% AMI) <br /> Above Moderate (>120% AMI) <br /> <br />20.0020.00 SUBTOTAL <br />20.0020.00 TOTAL
