Current through Register 71, No. 45, November 7, 2024
Rule 29-2573 - TAH - SUPPORTIVE SERVICES
2573.1

TAH is designed to assist clients who would otherwise qualify for Permanent Supporting Housing pursuant to DCMR §§2535-2542 but do not require ongoing, intensive supportive services to maintain housing because they have fewer barriers to housing stability or they are connected to community services.

2573.2

TAH combines a rental subsidy with supportive services for an unrestricted period of time. TAH supportive services may include unit identification assistance, application assistance, ongoing light touch case management, and coordination with the client's landlord.

2573.3

The TAH case manager shall meet with the client at least once every month during the first three (3) months after lease-up. Afterward, the TAH case manager shall meet with the client at least once every three (3) months or at some other frequency as agreed upon by the client and the case manager.

2573.4

The TAH client shall pay thirty percent (30%) of their household income toward the total rental amount determined by DCHA. The TAH case manager shall confirm if the client is paying their portion of the rent to ensure housing stability.

2573.5

The TAH case manager shall inform his/her supervisor in writing if the case manager assesses that the client would be better served with Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) case management. PSH case management consists of intensive case management services.

2573.6

It shall be the responsibility of each TAH client to follow rules for reporting changes in income related to their rental subsidy. Any resulting effect of a change in income on the client's rental subsidy shall be made in accordance with the rules and policies of DCHA or other applicable funding source.
