The Partnership Center provides a wide range of training and technical
assistance (TA) services focused on homelessness with individual
agencies/programs, statewide organizations, and for federal agencies.
PCL is an authorized HUD training and technical assistance provider on HUD programs and regulations, Homeless Management Information, and support for Continuums of Care.
Non-profits serving the homeless who are in need of our TA services should contact either their field office staff person at HUD or the Partnership Center by calling 513-891-4016 extension
311. All training and technical assistance provided to non-profits through HUD contracts must be approved by
the HUD Field Office prior to delivery.
Some examples of our TA work include:
- The development of "front line worker training" designed to provide training and support for case managers working with the homeless.
- Providing support to evaluate a current program and retool the program to improve effectiveness and/or fundability.
- Helping communities to understand what a "continuum of Care for the Homeless" is and what it can and should be doing.
Current TA work includes:
- Training all Shelter Plus Care providers in Ohio for HUD.
- Preparing a Medicaid Toolkit for use by PSH providers in Ohio for the Ohio
Interagency Council on Homelessness and Affordable Housing.
- Working with HUD and other national consultants to produce the new Annual
Performance Report (APR) for all Continuum of Care programs.
DATA WAREHOUSE
In cooperation with the Ohio Housing Finance Agency (OHFA) and their new Office
of Affordable Housing Research, PCL is in the process of facilitating the
development for a new statewide data warehouse. The warehouse is
conceptually being designed to bring together homeless data and state agency
data to provide research evidence for new programs and policies around housing
in Ohio.
