Summary: The JAC has retained providers for the No Place To Stay (NPTS) program, pursuant to RFQ 1205 - RS2026 Housing Services and Wraparound Supports, to make housing placements available to the Cook County’s criminal legal system agencies to address acute housing needs of individuals in the pretrial or probationary periods of their criminal cases. Contracted organizations provide housing placements. Providers also offer set periods of extended stay and aftercare for NPTS participants to help ensure continued access to support and services as individuals navigate the pretrial space; they may work to address underlying causes, such as housing, that may contribute to their engagement with the criminal legal system and ease reentry following periods of pretrial detention or homelessness. All payments under these contracts are reimbursements for placements that we actually utilize, i.e. no payments are made for vacancies. Henry's Sober Living House will provide approximately 40 placements.
