This presentation will highlight findings from a sixth round of site visits to ACCESS sites approximately three months after Federal funding ends. These findings will document which ACCESS services and systems integration strategies continued after Federal funding. These results will describe how and why certain efforts are sustained through new funding or through integration into other programs and funding streams. Strategies and decision-making processes that increase the likelihood that efforts on behalf of persons who are homeless and mentally ill survive and become part of a community's ongoing efforts for this population will be described.
Learning Objectives: 1. Understand how and why certain system integration strategies were able to be sustained through new funding. 2. Apply knowledge of strategies and decision-making processes in communities to encourage efforts on behalf of persons who are homeless and mentally ill
