PROJECT DESCRIPTION
• Name of Project: Emergency Shelter
• Amount requested: $126,000: $19,000 coming from Fund 148 and $107,000 coming
from Fund 149
Provide a brief description of the Project or Program:
The Jefferson County Emergency Shelter(JCES) is a year-round overnight shelter serving
the people of Jefferson County. The shelter exists to serve homeless adults, and priority is
given to US military veterans, people aged 65 years and older, and victims of domestic
violence. This shelter is entering its 18th year of operating from the basement of the
American Legion, Marvin G. Shields Memorial Post#26, located at 209 Monroe Street in
Port Townsend.
Operating hours vary seasonally but begin no later that 7:00PM in the evening and end no
earlier than 7:00AM the following morning. Shelter guests are offered accommodations in
either the men's or women's sleeping areas (in accordance with their gender identity) where
they are provided a bed with clean sheets,blankets and a pillow. The shelter offers
continuous stays, so they may return to the same bed and leave some basic belongings at
the shelter during the day. On-site monitoring by OlyCAP staff ensures that guests are
provided with a safe and comfortable environment.
While at the shelter, OlyCAP and partners at the Community Outreach Association
Shelter Team (COAST) provide a meal and snacks throughout the evening, toiletries and
essential need items, and TV, games and books for entertainment. Guests are encouraged
to engage in voluntary services and connect to resources available through the Housing
Department at OlyCAP and other area providers. Case management through OlyCAP
provides access to Jefferson County Coordinated Entry, assessment and support for
addressing each individual's barriers to accessing permanent housing, and guidance and
accountability for moving towards the housing of the individual's choice.
The shelter is also able to operate in extreme weather conditions as a daytime warming
center, summertime cooling center, and clean air respite during wildfire smoke events. The
shelter can also operate above standard capacity in the evenings for emergency situations.
All these additional functions of the JCES are available only as funding permits.
Specify the Project or Program goals and expected outcomes. Specify the methods by which
the Project or Program will be measured and assessed:
The Jefferson County Emergency Shelter is intended to provide short term assistance
for currently unhoused individuals and connect them to wrap around services that
move them along the housing continuum towards transitional and permanent housing
solutions. Measures of success include the number of individuals served,the number
of individuals leaving the shelter to enter housing,tracking length of stay before
moving into housing, and demonstrating a high percentage of priority populations
served (including Veterans, Seniors, and victims of DV). All of these are measurable
outcomes we track through our intake at the shelter, OlyCAP database system CAP60,
and the Homeless Information Management System managed by the Washington State
Department of Commerce (HMIS). We expect outcomes for the coming year to
continue the trend of the past two years and show an increase the number of
individuals served. We hope to increase the number of shelter guests engaging in
voluntary case management services offered and be able to demonstrate a direct
relationship between case management engagement and movement from shelter to
housing in a short amount of time.
Specify the number of units of housing to be created or number of individuals who will be
served by the Project or Program:
Standard capacity: 12,045 bed nights per year
Served October 2022-September 2023:
255 Individuals
13 Veterans
58 Seniors 62 years plus
101 Females
