PROBLEM STATEMENT
It is common knowledge that on any given night in Pinellas County, as many as 1,500
people are estimated to find themselves homeless (See Appendix I). Further, in the Clear-
water area, the pUblic has cried out that something be done for or about the problem of
the chronic homeless individuals, who on any given day or night tend to find themselves,
at best, a nuisance to the public and, at worst, a danger to themselves either due to expo-
sure or other chronic problems. In response to this awareness and the concerns on the
part of the Clearwater Police Department that something be done to change the revolving
door, in and out of jail treatment of chronic homeless and public inebriates, the Clearwater
City Commission established a Task Force to study the issue, needs and solution. From
August '93 through April t94, the Homeless Drop-In Center Task Force researched the
issues of homelessness in the Clearwater area and actually operated a winter shelter from
which they gleaned a tremendous amount of understanding of the issues at hand.
Concurrently with the Task Force operation, The Salvation Army in Clearwater received
funding from The Salvation Army's Territorial Headquarters to operate a Homeless
Intervention Program. This program provides for case management services, showers,
storage, message center, job referrals and mental health outreach services towards the
goal of discovering who the homeless in Clearwater are and making recommendations
as to provision of services to alleviate needs. Due to their traditional involvement in
the issues of homelessness and the experience of their staff in providing similar services
in other communities, The Salvation Army was invited to participate on this Task Force
as well. As a result of the efforts of the Task Force, the following conclusions and
recommendations were made:
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATIONS
1. A fifty-bed facility would be appropriate to accommodate the wide spectrum of
emergency and chronic homeless needs.
2. That it should accommodate single men, single women, couples, and families with
children.
3. That such a Center should operate twenty-four hours a day. During the daytime
it is critical to have case management and drop in center component with services
available.
4. Light meals would be served.
5. It is critical that a paid and very qualified staff should be on hand at all times to
receive the broad spectrum of clients representing the gamut of special needs.
6. This facility should be a cooperative effort between Pinellas County Government
and North Pinellas County muniCipalities who would assist in development of
resources.
I
I
2
7. The Salvation Army and the Clearwater Police Department should form a partnership
to develop and administer such program. To do so, CDBG and other federal funds
should be sought.
8. It is recommended that the site location for such a facility should be in the vicinity
of similar operations conducted on North Betty Lane or some such environment
to bring the least amount of impact on any residential area.
FURTHER JUSTIFICATION
It is further shown through The Salvation Army's Homeless Intervention Program
statistics that an average of 175 individuals have presented themselves to our case
managers as in need of services each month over the period from March through May
1994. Of these totals an average of 94 individuals or cases per month are presenting
themselves to The Salvation Army for the first time. The Salvation Army staff, based
upon case management files, have subcategorized this population in terms of presenting
problems or causal factors leading to homelessness as follows:
Catastrophic Loss of Jobs 3%
Undereducated or Undertrained 25%
Leading to Underemployment
Handicapped
Substance Abuse
Chronic Mental Illness
History of Institutionalization
Domestic Problems 8%
Catastrophic Illness 3%
Recently Incarcerated 4 %
In light of the Task Force findings, coupled with current experiences of The Salvation
Army Case Management Services for the Homeless Population, it becomes clear that
the problem of what to do about the homeless in Clearwater is not a simple one. To posi-
tively impact the numbers of homeless on the streets in Clearwater, services must go
beyond band-aid efforts simply to house the homeless or lock them away. Real problem
solving with skilled professionals must be coupled with any shelter or drop in program.
Given the serious problems that most of the homeless population present, adequately
trained staff must be proVided at all times in terms of numbers and expertise.
It is obvious that the task of developing an appropriate 24-hour drop in and service
operation as indicated by the Task Force will be no simple or quiCk task. While interested
parties and service proViders go about the business of developing a full blown 24-hour
service center for the homeless population a temporary stop-gap shelter should be operated
to address the needs of those homeless who are most at risk and in need of the most inten-

sive intervention. These would be the chronic homeless and the public inebriates. As
indicated in the Task Force recommendations, the Cleanvater Police Department is willing
to supply a double wide mobile home for use as a shelter for those whom the Police will
refer, i.e., those who may be intoxicated or are at risk of exposure, and thus a danger
to themselves. Everybodyts Tabernacle has expressed a desire to accommodate this trailer
on this property provided that another entity, such as The Salvation Army, can secure
funds for actually operating the program. It is to that end that The Salvation Army
proposes the following:
METHODOLOGY AND OPERATION
The Salvation Army of Cleanvater proposes receipt of Community Development
Block Grant monies, specifically to provide the public service of overnight shelter and
development of a continuum of services to chronic homeless individuals in the Cleanvater
area. Specifically, The Salvation Army seeks funding for provision of staff to operate
the overnight shelter within the mobile home donated by the Cleanvater Police Depart-
ment to Everybody's Tabernacle and moved to their property at 1120 N. Betty Lane. The
Salvation Army will lease this space from Everybodyts Tabernacle. This shelter space
will accommodate from twelve to fifteen individuals per night. Referrals to the shelter
will come directly from the Police Department drop off and from daytime referrals from
the Homeless Intervention Program coordinator at The Salvation Army. In keeping with
the Homeless Task Force concerns and recommendations, a second security staff person
will be on duty at all times during the shelter operation. These staff will be provided
by the Cleanvater Police Department as part of their Americorps Training Project.
The actual overnight shelter operation will be but one part of The Salvation Army's
total Homeless Intervention Program continuum of service. Daytime case management
and referral services will still be provided at The Salvation Army Social Service Center
on North Fort Harrison as currently operated. Mental health outreach and intervention
services will continue to be provided from the shelter site as well, through visiting staff
from Directions, Inc. As is done currently, and as was conducted during the winter shelter
operation, clients from the shelter will traverse to St. Vincente dePaul Soup Kitchen for
their main daily meal. A light evening meal will be provided by the Soup Kitchen as well
and will be administered by the staff at the shelter each evening.
While not logistically the most ideal setup, the Homeless Intervention Program as
expanded and taken as a whole provides for a stop gap approach to completion of a
continuum of services. This program will enable individuals who are able and are willing
to do so to move out of their current situation of homelessness into independent living
and a more productive life. In this way, the perceived problem of chronic homeless in
Cleanvater will be positively impacted by virtue of realistic problem-solving and not simply
casting these individuals aside. The program shall then have as its goals and objectives
the following:

CURRENT ACTIVITY
As stated above The Salvation Army is currently operating a Homeless Intervention
Program which provides the broad spectrum of case management and direct financial
assistance services from its Social Services Center at Fort Harrison. This program became
operational in late December of 1993 and statistics depicting this program activity has
been mentioned above. It should be noted further than an original budget for this program
provided for $20,000 to be expended for provision of lodging for those individuals who
are moving off the streets into permanent employment. To date, we have expended
$43,000 for this service as we were fortunate to have received an unexpected major gift
earmarked specifically for this program. Directions Mental Health Services has been
most responsive in actually assigning an individual counselor to be stationed on site in
one of our offices. These efforts have been most beneficial in providing for the mental
health outreach intervention component of our planned program. One of the primary
goals of the Homeless Intervention Program has been to research the needs of the
homeless, gather data, and make recommendations towards developing permanent program
solutions. Presentation of this proposal for funding is a result of those activities. We
believe strongly that the establishment of a stop gap shelter for those with the most
chronic needs would be a much more cost effective approach to transitioning homeless
individuals off the streets. Having a shelter such as this readily available to our case
management staff will greatly enhance the data gathering and research component of
the Homeless Intervention Program so as to adequately design a permanent drop in center
for the total homeless population in Clearwater. These program activities will work hand
in hand with related efforts by The Salvation Army and the Clearwater Police Department
to develop a permanent shelter by securing pre-development funds under separate proposal.

TYPICAL CASE MANAGEMENT
SCENARIO
Client, who is found to be on the streets, at risk to himself or from others and/or intoxicated yet
non-violent, is picked up by police officer.
Client is transported to The Salvation Army's Drop In Center. Manager on duty determines
whether client is suitable for admission, dependent upon prior behavior, physical condition, etc,
Eligible clients are admitted and given a snack (provided by Soup Kitchen) if appropriate, then
assigned a bed and sheets.
Client is awakened in A.M., given coffee, then proceeds to St. Vincent dePaul soup kitchen for
morning nourishment.
Clients who wish to spend s second night, then proceed to required appointment with The
Salvation Army Homeless Intetvention case manager. Other clients may only be interested in
other services.
While at Homeless Intervention Program (H.I.P.) office, client may avail themselves of other
H.I.P. services such as a shower (required before being readmitted to the shelter), phone, mail
service, job referrals or items storage.
H.I.P. coordinator conducts intake interview and detemrines eligibility or appropriateness of client
for continued residence at the drop on shelter. Case manager will make initial assessment of
reasons as to why client is homeless and consequently what resources should be accessed to
alleviate the client's homeless condition.
Client, if appropriate, is issued written referral or admission slip for continued residence at drop in
shelter, for a specific duration.
Client may continue to stay in drop in shelter for a period determined by the case manager, and
contingent upon behavior and keeping appointments with the case manager and/or referrals.
Directions Mental Health Services, whose outreach professional win be available on certain days
at the H.I.P. office, may be a referral, and this person may facilitate access to other appropriate
servtces.
Whether shelter resident or not, homeless individuals may daily avail themselves ofH.I.P. services
during each working day. The case manager will be available to engage clients in a therapeutic
relationship, pinpointing those individuals who indicate an interest in overcoming homelessness.
The case manager will, with the client, develop a social service plan and workers will manage the
case to completion or termination.
I
I
The social service plan may involve job referral or access to benefits which will lead to income to
enable client to find independent living arrangements. or,
Client who is drug or alcohol dependent may wish to enter appropriate treatment. In many cases
this may be referral to The Salvation Army's own Rehabilitative Center for alcohol treatment.
In any of the above situations, once the plan has been executed and goals achieved, the case
manager may approve a rent and food voucher to enable the client to move in to independent
quarters.
The case will be followed on a two month, six month and one year follow up interview or home
visit.
Other Related Operations:
Critical to the successful operation of this program and successful case management will be
routine (weekly or biweekly) team case conferences.
* Appropriate case situations on each client will be shared and discussed amongst the
representatives of the various service providers. Cooperative arrangements as to services
required to address each unique client situation will be discussed and analyzed.
* At a minimum, the team case conferences should be comprised of representatives from
The Salvation Army, Everybody's Tabernacle, Directions and St. Vincent dePaul Soup
Kitchen.
The Salvation Army will establish and maintain a database of clients served with appropriate
demographic information, but more importantly information as to perceived and determined
causes leading to homelessness, resources accessed, resources which need to be developed and
progress in transmitting homeless individuals from homelessness, through shelter dependence, to
independent living.
From such database, a report on the specifics of the population will be compiled from which a
permanent program and facility to address shelter needs will be designed and proposed.
