休伦县已将其全年桥梁住房方案延长一年,尽管工作人员建议为稳定而延长两年。 Huron County has renewed its year-round bridge housing program for one year, despite staff recommending a two-year extension for stability. 该方案于2024年启动,取代了季节性紧急收容所,通过两个县拥有的单位和戈德里希的一个6间卧室过渡住所,提供长期支助。 Launched in 2024, the program replaced a seasonal emergency shelter with permanent support through two county-owned units and a six-bedroom transitional home in Goderich. 第一年,86人获得服务,其中6人获得永久或过渡性住房,7人获得就业,23人成为补贴住房的“文件准备就绪”。 In its first year, 86 people accessed services, with six securing permanent or transitional housing, seven gaining employment, and 23 becoming “document ready” for subsidized housing. 县议会核准延长一年,数额为190 000美元,但由于费用问题,否决了430 000美元的两年期备选方案。 County council approved the one-year renewal at $190,000, rejecting a $430,000 two-year option due to cost concerns. 一些官员指出,该方案减少了紧急服务的使用,改善了住房准备状况,并提供了持续支持,但一些担心的长期供资可能会将负担转移给其他政府。 Officials noted the program reduces emergency service use, improves housing readiness, and offers consistent support, but some worry long-term funding may shift burdens to other governments.
