• <br />B. Organization Capability (Continued) <br />4. How does your program differ from similar ones provided in the community? How do the programs <br />complement those offered by other agencies ? <br />There are no other similar programs on the Treasure Coast. Treasure Coast Homeless Services Council, <br />Inc. is the HUD Continuum of Care Lead Agency for Indian River, St. Lucie and Martin County. This <br />includes the HUD Federal designation of the official Collaborative Applicant and Lead Agency of the CoC. <br />Treasure Coast Homeless also holds the Department of Children and Families State designation as <br />Lead Agency for grants and contract eligibility through the State Office on Homelessness. TCHSC, Inc. <br />also remains as the only agency qualified to apply for, receive and administer Federal Emergency Shelter <br />Grant Funding and HUD McKinney Vento Homeless funding, under the SUPERNOFA. These funds are <br />used to prevent and end homelessness. The Council continues to provide sub awards of several <br />different State Grant funds to Indian River County provider agencies including New Horizons, Children's <br />Home Society, Camp Haven and the Source. It administers grant funds on behalf of Community Church <br />and the United Way FEMA and Disaster Funds. It has a partnership with the Indian River Rental <br />Assistance Department to collaborate on VASH Housing for Veterans and provide TBRA housing <br />assistance for low income persons. There are no other programs accessing the volume of Federal and <br />State assistance secured for the County by the Council. The mandatory Homeless Management <br />Information System,(HMIS) Clienttrack, is maintained by the Council for use by provider agencies, under <br />strict Federal confidentiality and HIPAA compliant guidelines. This data management system supports <br />efficient coordinated intake for assistance and the coordination of service delivery among 65 different <br />provider agencies on the Treasure Coast. It also helps these agencies avoid the provision of duplicative <br />financial assistance and other services to the same clients. <br />• 5.
