providers, hospitals, convalescent homes, senior centers, churches,
and social clubs. Also local businesses, schools and day
care centers will be contacted in outreach to the low wage
earner and single parents.
Screening - Primarily through the use of a toll free number
1-800-540-1383 potential clients schedule meetings with
LIFELINE counselors who will conduct necessary interviews at
the Poway Senior Center. If shared housing is deemed an appro-
priate housing option, income information and references are
obtained, along with information about housing preferences.
Homeowners are interviewed at their residence for personal
and household assessment.
Housing Match - Signatures on Release of Liability and Release
of Information Forms are obtained; LIFELINE staff provides
appropriate referrals to homeowners and homeseekers; and rental
agreements for homeseekers/homeowners are provided by LIFELINE.
Once a match is effected, a copy of the signed rental agreement
is obtained by LIFELINE for their records.
Follow-up and Evaluation - Counselors remain available for
counseling after matches are made. Mediation services and
in-depth personal counseling are available where the need is
indicated. Emergency assistance, social service agency
referrals, problem solving advocacy and legal assistance
services are also available.
Data Collection - Compilation of demographic data on clients
served will include information on age, gender, disability, and
income. Additionally, documentation will be maintained which
confirms that no homeseeker is paying for shared housing in excess
of that which is affordable pursuant to the California Health and
Safety Code. LIFELINE will maintain records on the percentage of
income used to pay housing related expenses before and after a shared
housing match. Data will be collected and maintained on the number
of homeseekers and homeowners enrolled in the shared housing program,
number of home visits, problem solving and counseling sessions, the
extent of community out-reach activities undertaken by LIFELINE
staff, and other relevant program activities.
