6. Sustainability: Describe your ability, experience, and resources to implement and <br />sustain the project during the term of the project. (250 words max.) <br />Merit Resource Services has experience providing a men's sober house since 2013. <br />We know we can help homeless individuals transition to stabilization and permanent <br />housing. We hope to do the same for women. <br />At this time we are looking at a one-year pilot program to serve up to 12 women. <br />Providing the services for the term of the project will not be a problem, we have staff in <br />place at this time to manage the project, other then the on-site house monitor would <br />need to be hired. This individual would be a women of long-term recovery who could <br />provide mentorship and verify compliance of women living in the home. <br />We have staff in place to provide case management in addition to their treatment and <br />possible mental health services. <br />Our goal for stabilization will include employment and at 90 days be in a position to <br />transition out to affordable housing, through work with HopeSource. Based on my <br />experience, some will transition earlier and others may take up to 180 days. <br />11 <br />
