Re: Permanent Supportive Housing Projects in San Diego County Utilizing No
Place Like Home Funding (Districts -All)
This memorandum provides information on permanent supportive housing projects in San
Diego County utilizing No Place Like Home (NPLH) funding.
Background
At a recent City Council meeting, city staff clarified that NPLH funding is not a pilot funding
program and the Windsor Pointe project is not a pilot supportive housing project. This
memorandum provides some further information about the funding program as well as a list of
other projects throughout San Diego County utilizing NPLH funding.
Discussion
Permanent supportive housing combines affordable housing with support services to help
people with complex challenges live with stability. The NPLH funding program was authorized in
2016 to provide permanent supportive housing for persons with serious mental health needs
who are experiencing homelessness. In 2018, voters approved Proposition 2, authorizing the sale of
up to $2 billion of revenue bonds and the use of a portion of Proposition 63 taxes (Mental Health
Services Initiative) for the NPLH program.
The NPLH program is just one funding source to assist with the development of permanent
supportive housing in California. Most affordable housing projects in general have multiple
funding sources, and permanent supportive housing relies on even more subsidies because the
rental income associated with permanent supportive housing projects is too low to support
conventional debt. Most permanent supportive housing projects have tenants with mental
health and substance abuse issues who are provided a variety of voluntary supportive services
paid for through the projects' funding sources. Because the funding source for the NPLH

program was authorized by the Mental Health Services Act, the NPLH funding specifically
requires that tenants have a serious mental illness.
The County of San Diego receives a direct allocation of NPLH funding to distribute and
administer because it has been designated an Alternative Process County based on its percent
of the state's homeless population and the capacity to directly administer loan funds to
projects serving the NPLH target population. The formula allocation process for each
Alternative Process County bases the funding amount on their homeless Point-In-Time Count
with a minimum allocation per county. Alternative Process Counties must administer the
funding in accordance with State guidelines and must commit to provide mental health services
for the permanent supportive housing created by the NPLH funds.
The attached table identifies the projects utilizing NPLH funding through the County of San
Diego. The amount of permanent supportive housing throughout the county is much larger, this
list is just those utilizing NPLH funding.
