[cid:image053.png at 01DB9D9A.C7403580]<https://connectedlane.org/?gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIhOvw_NOCjAMVHDStBh022i58EAAYASAAEgJjJvD_BwE>DIRECT CASH TRANSFERS FOR YOUTH AT RISK OF HOMELESSNESS

Connected Lane County<https://connectedlane.org/?gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIhOvw_NOCjAMVHDStBh022i58EAAYASAAEgJjJvD_BwE> is pleased to announce the availability of Direct Cash Transfers as Prevention (DCT-P) funds to support young people at risk of experiencing homelessness. Through the State of Oregon’s Youth Experiencing Homelessness Program, we have received $100,000 in funding, which will allow us to assist at least 33 youth in Lane County with one-time cash payments aimed at stabilizing housing crises.

We are now accepting referrals<https://go.connectedlane.org/dctp> from youth-serving organizations. Referral partners must complete an intake form on behalf of young people aged 16-24 who are at risk of becoming unhoused. Please note that submission of the form does not guarantee funding, as each application will be reviewed for eligibility. After review, the referral partner and the client will receive an email with further guidance.

Have someone to refer? Complete the referral form here: go.connectedlane.org/dctp<http://go.connectedlane.org/dctp>. For questions, contact Meg Watson at meg at connectedlane.org<mailto:meg at connectedlane.org>.
