More Definitions of Chronic Homelessness
Chronic Homelessness means the condition experienced by people defined as “Chronically Homeless” under the federal Continuum of Care Program, at 24 C.F.R.
Chronic Homelessness means a disabling condition in which an individual has either: (a) been continuously homeless for one (1) year or more, or (b) has had at least four (4) episodes of homelessness in the past three (3) years. For this condition, the individual must have been on the streets or in an emergency shelter (i.e. not transitional housing) during these episodes. Chronic homelessness only includes single individuals, not families. A disabling condition is a diagnosable substance abuse disorder, serious mental illness, or developmental disability, including the co-occurrence of two or more of these conditions.
Chronic Homelessness as characterized under the XxXxxxxx-Xxxxx Homeless Assistance Act, as amended by S. 896 of the “Homeless Emergency Assistance and Rapid Transition to Housing (HEARTH) Act of 2009 means, with respect to an individual or family, that the individual or family—(i) is homeless and lives or resides in a place not meant for human habitation, a safe haven, or in an emergency shelter; (ii) has been homeless and living or residing in a place not meant for human habitation, a safe haven, or in an emergency shelter continuously for at least 1 year or on at least 4 separate occasions in the last 3 years; and (iii) has an adult head of household (or a minor head of household if no adult is present in the household) with a diagnosable substance use disorder, SMI, developmental disability, posttraumatic stress disorder, cognitive impairments resulting from a brain injury, or chronic physical illness or disability, including the co-occurrence of 2 or more of those conditions. In addition, a person who currently lives or resides in an institutional care facility, including a jail, substance abuse or mental health treatment facility, hospital or other similar facility, and has resided there for fewer than 90 days shall be considered chronically homeless if such person met all of the requirements described above prior to entering that facility. In addition, for the purposes of this RFA, the terms “homeless” and “chronically homeless” also may include individuals who are “doubled-up”–a residential status that places individuals at imminent risk for becoming homeless–defined as sharing another person’s dwelling on a temporary basis where continued tenancy is contingent upon the hospitality of the primary leaseholder or owner and can be rescinded at any time without notice.
Chronic Homelessness has the same meaning as defined in 24 CFR Section 91.5, except that, for the purposes of evaluating eligibility for the supportive housing created as a result of this MOU, an applicant who meets any of the criteria of chronic homelessness upon entering an institution will be considered as having met those criteria upon exiting the institution, regardless of length of stay in that institution.
Chronic Homelessness means a situation in which a person is living in a place not meant for human habitation, including emergency shelters, for at least twelve (12) months and for whom homelessness is correlated with a condition that makes accessing services and maintaining housing a significant challenge such as substance use disorder or a behavioral health condition, and includes a situation in which a person has been living intermittently in an institutional care facility, including but not limited to a correctional facility or health treatment facility, but is otherwise living in a place not meant for human habitation.
Chronic Homelessness means persons, often with disabling conditions (e.g. chronic physical or mental illness, substance abuse problems), who are currently homeless and have been homeless for six months or more in the past year (i.e. have spent more than 180 cumulative nights in a shelter or place not fit for human habitation).
