Housing First ApproachAlign shelter and housing eligibility criteria, policies and practices with a housing first approach so that anyone experiencing homelessness can access shelter or housing without prerequisites, make services voluntary, and assist people to access or maintain permanent housing as quickly as possible.
![Page 16: Humboldt Housing and Homeless Coalition HHHC...2018/04/25 · 2. Emergency Shelter 3. Transitional Housing 4. Permanent and Permanent Supportive Housing HHHC Humboldt County’s CoC](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060912/60a6c35aedbcf952a84a6d03/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Safe & Appropriate Diversion
Provide diversion services to find safe and appropriate housing alternatives to entering shelter through problem-solving conversations, identifying community supports and offering lighter touch solutions.
![Page 17: Humboldt Housing and Homeless Coalition HHHC...2018/04/25 · 2. Emergency Shelter 3. Transitional Housing 4. Permanent and Permanent Supportive Housing HHHC Humboldt County’s CoC](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060912/60a6c35aedbcf952a84a6d03/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Immediate & Low Barrier Access
Ensure immediate and easy access to shelter by lowering barriers to entry and staying open 24/7. Eliminate sobriety and income requirements and other policies that make it difficult to enter or stay in shelter or housing.
