Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Strategies to End Homelessness leads a coordinated community effort to end homelessness in Greater Cincinnati.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Strategies to End Homelessness leads a community effort to end homelessness in Greater Cincinnati.

  • Coordinated services and funding for the homeless among approximately 50 programs housed at 22 direct service agencies. Programs consist of street outreach, shelter, transitional, and permanent housing programs, funded by federal, local, and private dollars. STEH oversees the programmatic effectiveness and compliance of these programs.

    Expenses $31,447,739 · Grants $29,585,126

  • Operated a homelessness prevention program in partnership with five local agencies for residents of Cincinnati and Hamilton County and funded by federal, state, local, and private dollars. The program offers rent/utility assistance combined with case management services to divert persons/households from otherwise going into emergency shelter, as it has been demonstrated to be more cost effective than the cost of emergency shelter.

    Expenses $2,287,844 · Grants $1,953,353

  • Administered the Community's Homeless Management Information System, a shared online database that tracks client-level data and is required of each Continuum of Care (CoC) by HUD. HUD then uses this data to better implement and create policy. HMIS staff ensure the CoC has a robust HMIS that provides high-quality data for analysis and ongoing system improvement.

    Expenses $499,764

  • Operated Coordinated Entry, a prioritization process by which people experiencing homelessness are given access to housing and assistance based on their level of need and resources available. Another aspect of Coordinated Entry is the Central Access Point, a centralized helpline offering access to information and emergency shelter, as well as screening for shelter diversion.

    Expenses $472,816 · Grants $460 · Revenue $102,596

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
