A resolution approved an amendatory agreement between the City and County of Denver and Jewish Family Service of Colorado, Inc. (JFS). The agreement extends a contract to support housing navigation, case management, and rental assistance for families experiencing homelessness through the Transformational Homelessness Response Rapid Rehousing program. The amendment adds 7 months to the contract, with a new end date of December 31, 2025, but involves no change to the original $750,000 contract amount. The program aims to quickly connect households experiencing literal homelessness with services, treatment, and temporary and permanent housing to facilitate economic self-sufficiency. JFS provides rapid rehousing services including housing navigation (identifying landlords, conducting inspections), move-in and rental assistance (financial aid for rent, utilities, deposits), and housing stability case management (connecting participants with community resources). Referrals for this program come from OneHome coordinated entry and direct referrals from family shelters.
