• Provide a brief description of the Project or Program: (LIMIT 200 WORDS)
Woodley Place is a Permanent Supported Housing facility in Port Hadlock, WA. This facility
has 17 units that are dedicated to households that meet the eligibility for PSH. Requirements
include being at or below 30%AMI, homeless or threat of being homeless, and having a
diagnosed physical disability or mental health illness. After entry, Residents can earn up to
80%AMI after they enter into the housing unit. The income guidelines are in a covenant for
40 yrs that is contracted with WA State Dept. of Commerce HTF for grants received.
Households who qualify are some of the most vulnerable members of the county's
population: among them are seniors, veterans, households with children,people experiencing
domestic violence, and those with major physical or mental health challenges and disabilities.
As tenants in PSH, they will be permanently and safely housed and receive the supportive
services and trauma-informed care they need to remain housed and address concurrent
challenges to their mental,physical, and social health.
5386 Funds will be applied to subsidize the households at Woodley Place. BHS is working
with PHA and VA to establish additional subsidies for residents that meet eligibility
requirements.
• Specify the Project or Program goals and expected outcomes. Specify the measures of
success by which the Project or Program will be assessed. (LIMIT 300 WORDS)
The PSH program at Woodley Place aims to allow low-income households to gain stability

management staff work with program participants on a case-by-case basis and seek to
understand their individual situations. The safety and well-being of all PSH residents is
foremost. While there is no binding threshold, entry for homeless individuals with
criminal records that include sexual offences and violent crime is considered on a
case-by-case basis, using degree, frequency, circumstances, and time lapsed as criteria for
the decision.
■ Familiarizing PSH tenants with the rights and responsibilities of tenancy and securing 12-
month lease agreements.
■ Providing basic information and training in life skills such as how to maintain a lease,
move around the city via public transportation, manage bank accounts, create and adhere
to a household budget, and pay bills(especially online, in a paperless environment).
■ Inviting PSH tenants to work with the BHS Supportive Services team to voluntarily
explore and secure the services and skills they need to rebuild their lives, which may
include behavioral/medical care, Self Management programs,peer support,public agency
support, education and/or workforce training, enrichment activities, and facilitating
therapeutic court and family reunification programs.
■ Leveraging rental assistance for PSH program participants via Community Behavioral
Health Rental Assistance(CBRA), Aging and Long-Term Support Administration
assistance (ALTSA), and Governor's Opportunity for Supportive Housing (GOSH).
■ Providing on-site supportive services Monday through Friday from 8 am to 5 pm and
rotating responsibility for staffing during off hours.

from 6 to 60, grown its Supportive Services staff from 1 to 5, and has provided over 80,916 bed
nights of safety to 290 homeless program participants, 55%of whom have been placed into
stable, long-term housing so far. Since beginning services, BHS has placed 184 program
participants into permanent housing to-date. BHS has served program participants over 30,280
daily meals since 2016; in 2024 BHS has served 94 individuals and has assisted 25 of those into
housing ; and helped program participants receive successful treatment for substance use
disorder, secure health insurance and subsequent medical treatment, find employment, and
further their education via GEDs, vocational training, and other degrees. Currently, the 82
individuals presently housed at Bayside Tower, Woodley Place and the 2 Tiny Shelter Villages

individuals with disabilities. Currently,the 84 individuals presently housed includes 44 adults,

• Briefly describe how the project aligns with the priorities and objectives of the Five-
Year Homeless Housing Plan and the community outreach conducted for the
project or program. (LIMIT 400 WORDS)
Objectives 1 &2: BHS identifies program participants through a referral partnership with local
social service organizations. We also post our application online to facilitate self-referral. Upon
receipt, all applications are entered into our database to be followed by a detailed interview
process. Focused interviews and questionnaires are completed to determine needs. Applicants are
then rated on a vulnerability index to further prioritize those most in need of immediate services.
Objective 3: The need for permanent housing solutions has led to BHS's decision to begin a
Permanent Supportive Housing(PSH)program at Woodley Place. Our wraparound case
HOUSING FUND BOARD 2025 GRANT FUNDING BAYSIDE-SUBSIDY Page 17 of29
management services are available to all 50+participants, allowing them to connect with
services, improve mental and physical health, and strengthen educational and economic
prospects. Similar, however voluntary, case management support will be available for residents
in PSH at Woodley Place. These services will be specifically focused on education and skill-
building to ensure sustainable tenancy. Recent studies (WA Health Care Authority, 2020)
indicate that supportive housing,particularly the Foundational Community Support model we
anticipate using, leads to significant increases in transitions out of homelessness.
Objective 5: BHS designs and runs trauma-informed and client-centered programs to address the
circumstances and background of each program participant. This goal guides our case
management training and specifies non-discrimination and inclusiveness based on race, gender
or ethnicity. Developing culturally sensitive services for our diverse pool of program participants
is essential. Past program participants have ranged in age (0-88), including BIPOC community
members and those identifying as LGBTQ+. All are welcome at Bayside.
Objective 6: BHS participates in the annual PIT Count and provides information to the Homeless
Management Information System. BHS staff and board members are active in community groups
working toward housing improvements and frequently participate in advocacy efforts.
Woodley Place development into Permanent Supportive Housing was included in Bayside
Housing& Services' Annual Impact Report,which is distributed widely to our donor base and

A. APPROACH-Completeness of Proposal and Readiness (5 Points) (LIMIT 400
WORDS)
Approach. BHS is employing Coordinated Entry and is guided by principles influenced by
Center for Supportive Housing training in developing a tenant-centered integrated approach to
educate and house individuals in Woodley Place PSH. On-site management continues training
according to best-practice guidelines to serve the ongoing tenant needs and education around
rights and responsibilities as leaseholders. Case management has established an office on-site
with regular hours and availability by phone 24/7. Case management responsibilities include
developing healthy working relationships with the tenants to provide advocacy and assistance in
meeting their needs. Maintenance staff is on site daily to ensure safety and health standards are
upheld. Maintenance staff is guided by a matrix of weekly and monthly tasks and annual
HOUSING FUND BOARD 2025 GRANT FUNDING BAYSIDE-SUBSIDY Page 18 of 29
inspections to ensure the facility stays in proper repair. A system for tenant-requested repairs is
in place;tenants are provided guidance on procedures during their walk-through and lease-up.
Readiness to use funding. BHS will be ready to use funding as PSH units are leased up in
2024. Subsidy will be required for most, if not all tenants.
Bayside may also apply Consolidated Homeless Grant funds to the project(in the form of
Eviction Prevention funds, IF a tenant has been unable to pay rent and is at risk of eviction).
Bayside is also preparing to begin billing through the Washington State Healthcare Authority for
the provision of Foundational Community Supports services. FCS financial projections are
limited at this point, as this will be a new service 2024.
B. IMPACT OF FUNDS -Leverage of Other Funds and Number of Persons Assisted
(10 Points) (LIMIT 400 WORDS)
The project would contribute 17-34 total project entries and 17-34 exits to permanent
housing. Initiating tenancy in PSH shortens the length of time someone would spend
homeless and the availability of Supportive Housing services is intended to foster
sustainability of tenant status and minimize returns to homelessness.
There are no established matching fund contingencies at present for subsidizing PSH units in
Jefferson County. BHS is working to establish funding through PHA and the VA for specific
units. Housing Subsidies are typically established with the household/individual through their
eligibility with various programs. BHS case management serves in a position to assist
households with this process. Due to the limited amount of housing vouchers available, it is
imperative that subsidies be sought at every opportunity.
BHS has applied to the Wa State Dept. of Commerce PSH OMS funding opportunity to
leverage additional expenses of operating Woodley Place. Operations will be sustained by
foundation grants,Medicaid billings, and donations from Bayside's 818-member donor base
provided via annual fund campaigns and special fundraising events like Bayside's annual
Gala, September 28, 2024.

Current projections for rental subsidies are based off the average rent paid of current residents at
Woodley Place PSH. Being that tenancy is eligible to those that have an income of 30%or below
AM],the average rent calculated from 30%of the tenants' income is $216.00. Rent is based off
the 2025 HUD FMR rate of$1072.00 leaving a gap fund of$856.00 per effeciency. BHS has
met with the Peninsula Housing Authority to verify the standards for Section 8 eligibility and is
pursuing conversations with the VASH program to do likewise. The goal is to establish residents
with vouchers attached to the household that they can take with them, aligning the standard of
housing choice.
