Supporting Documentation Instructions
SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION
The general rule for supporting documentation is that for any program cost that is to be reimbursed (or used as match), provide the invoice which documents that a cost was incurred, and a receipt, or a copy of a check, a check stub, or copy of bank statement to substantiate the amount paid. Supporting documentation must be legible, clear, and organized. The COUNTY must be able to tie your request to the amounts claimed after each line item on the Claim Form. Costs can only be reimbursed if they have been included in the original Technical Submission/Application.
Documentation for like line items should be clipped together and identified with a summary sheet or label identifying the Line Item Number or the Activity as listed on the Claim Form. A spreadsheet itemizing the expenses, or at a minimum, an adding machine tape showing the expenses with a matching amount on the claim form is helpful. The clearer the information is that you provide, the quicker we will be able to process the claim.
The Fiscal Management Reporting Unit reviews each claim for expenses that are:

INTRODUCTION
This handbook provides project administration guidelines and financial reporting requirements for Subrecipients under contract with Riverside County Department of Housing, Homelessness Prevention and Workforce Solutions (HWS CoC) to operate the Encampment Resolution Funding Program (ERF-2-L). This handbook does not supersede any law, regulation, or policy issued by the State of California with regard to this program.
The State of California has established the Encampment Resolution Funding Program ("ERF" or "Program") pursuant to Chapter 7 (commencing with Section 50250) of Part 1 of Division 31 of the Health and Safety Code. Amended by SB 197 (Statutes of 2022, Chapter 70, Sec.3-8, effective June 30, 2022).
The Program is administered by the California Interagency Council on Homelessness (Cal ICH) in the Business, Consumer Services and Housing Agency ("Agency"). ERF provides one-time, competitive grant funds to continuums of care and / or local jurisdictions as defined below. HWS CoC, as the Grantee, partners with government and non-profit organizations through a contract to provide housing and supportive services to individuals and families experiencing homelessness within Riverside County. This handbook is intended to outline the HWS CoC policies and procedures as well as provide the appropriate state and federal codes and regulations for the ERF program to ensure compliance.

DocuSign Envelope ID: 4F6F35D6-11CD-44D9-93AF-FAED760783FC A. FISCAL COMPONENTS
The County of Riverside recognizes governmental Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), as codified by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), as the highest- ranking set of standards applicable to the County's accounting practices. These standards take highest precedence over all other standards, laws, and regulations.
1. CLAIMS
Due to the large volume of paperwork associated with most grants, generally, electronic claims are not accepted. A claim will not be considered as received until a hard copy of the claim with an original signature on the 2076A is received by HWS.
In some cases, electronic claims may be accepted instead of hard copies, at the sole discretion of HWS.
2. CLAIM FORMS
Claims should be received by HWS no later than 30 days after the end of the month in which services were provided using the 2076A Claim Form (see attached Exhibit A) with the required supporting documentation (see Section 5 Supporting Documentation). For example, a claim for March services should be received by April 30, and a claim for April services should be received by May 30.
If the 2076A claim form is updated during the grant period, the most current version of the 2076A form should be used.
3. TIME/ACTIVITY REPORTS
Time & Activity (T&A) reports (see attached Exhibit B) are required for all staff (see Section 5 Supporting Documentation). T&A reports are required to show the actual hours that staff worked in a particular activity on a grant. The T&A report hours must match the total hours on the payroll documentation that is provided.
NOTE: One T&A report must be submitted for each pay period. Pay periods are not to be combined on one T&A.
4. REIMBURSEMENTS/DISBURSEMENT OF FUNDS
Generally, reimbursement payments are sent within forty-five (45) days after receipt of a claim.
An expenditure which is not authorized by the Agreement, or which cannot be adequately documented, shall be disallowed, and will not be paid to the Subrecipient.

DocuSign Envelope ID: 4F6F35D6-11CD-44D9-93AF-FAED760783FC • Lack of documentation
Incomplete documentation
• Unclear documentation
Once your claim has been reviewed, we will send a letter indicating any differences. If you disagree with any disallowance, please request any correction within 30 days from the date of the letter.
Any reimbursements that are made and are found later to be ineligible must be repaid by the Subrecipient upon request.
5. SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION
The general rule for supporting documentation is that for any program cost that is to be reimbursed, provide the invoice which documents that a cost was incurred, and a receipt, or a copy of a check, or a check stub to substantiate the amount paid. Supporting documentation must be legible, clear, and organized. HWS must be able to tie your request to the amounts claimed after each line item on the Claim Form. Costs can only be reimbursed if they have been included in the Subrecipient Agreement.
If the same backup documentation applies to multiple claims (for example, a cost allocated between multiple grants), a copy of that backup documentation must be included in each claim.
Claims for the same subrecipient are reviewed separately and may be reviewed by different staff members.
Documentation for each budget category should be bundled together and identified with a summary sheet or label identifying the Budget Line Item. A spreadsheet itemizing the expenses, or at a minimum, an adding machine tape showing the expenses with a matching amount on the claim form is helpful. The clearer the information is that you provide, the quicker we will be able to process theclaim.
Any costs that are unusually large or are otherwise unusual in nature should include a justification for the purpose of the cost and its relation to the program and to the particular budget category or activity that it is being claimed in.
Fiscal staff reviews each claim for expenses that are:
Allowable
Allocable
Reasonable

7. CAPITAL PURCHASES
Capital expenditures are allowable, provided that items with a unit cost of $5,000 or more have the prior written approval of HWS before the item is purchased. HWS will require proof that due diligence was achieved on the part of the subrecipient to ensure that the purchase is reasonable and necessary for the direct provision of homeless services and was made using the federal procurement standards referenced in 2 CFR $200.318, $200.319, and §200.320.

DocuSign Envelope ID: 4F6F35D6-11CD-44D9-93AF-FAED760783FC C. WITHHELD PAYMENTS
Unearned payments under this Agreement may be suspended or terminated if grant funds to HWS are suspended or terminated, or if the Subrecipient refuses to accept additional conditions imposed on it by HWS.
HWS has the authority to withhold funds under this Agreement pending a final determination by HWS of questioned expenditures or indebtedness to HWS arising from past or present agreements between HWS and the Subrecipient. Upon final determination by HWS of disallowed expenditures or indebtedness, HWS may deduct and retain the amount of the disallowed or indebtedness from the amount of the withheldfunds.

DocuSign Envelope ID: 4F6F35D6-11CD-44D9-93AF-FAED760783FC F. REPROGRAMMING OF ERF FUNDS
While all subrecipients are expected to fully spend all awarded funds and meet all program and fiscal requirements per executed subrecipient agreements, BCSH allows for the COUNTY as the Administrative Entity to reprogram funds under the HHAP program from one eligible activity and/or jurisdiction to another after the application is approved and funds are disbursed. The COUNTY under the direction of the Board of Governance and with the approval of BCSH reserves the right to reprogram funds as needed after awards are announced to ensure funding spending goals and program compliance under Health and Safety Code Section 50220.
G. REPORTING
Reporting due dates are determined by a project's operating start date. Please note that different programs have different operating start dates. • Additional reports may be requested at any time by HWS and/or BCSH to meet other applicable reporting or audit requirements, as well as evaluating project performance.
H. RECORDKEEPING REQUIREMENTS
The Subrecipients must establish and maintain standard operating procedures to ensure that program funds are used in accordance with the recordkeeping requirements and must establish and maintain sufficient records to enable HWS to determine whether the Subrecipient is meeting the state's requirements.
• The Subrecipient must maintain and follow written, intake procedures to ensure program compliance. The procedures must require documentation, at intake, of the evidence relied upon to establish and verify homeless or chronically homeless status.
The procedures must establish the order of priority for obtaining evidence as third- party documentation first, intake worker observations second, and certification from the person seeking assistance third. Records contained in an HMIS, or comparable database used by victim service or legal service providers, are acceptable evidence of third-party documentation and intake worker observations, if the HMIS, or comparable database, retains an auditable history of all entries, including the person who entered the data, the date of entry, and the change made, and if the HMIS prevents overrides or changes of the dates on which entries are made.
As part of the Chronically Homeless definition, evidence that the individual is a homeless individual with a disability must include documentation, at intake, of the evidence relied upon to establish and verify the disability of the person applying for homeless assistance. Acceptable evidence of the disability includes written verification of the disability from a professional licensed by the state to diagnose and treat the disability and his or her certification that the CAWRI01200.10107\10274859.5

Monitoring will be conducted by the monitoring team consisting of representatives from the HWS CoC Division including Programs, Fiscal, HMIS and Contracts Units. The purpose of monitoring is to assess how well the Subrecipient is implementing its grant and/or to offer technical assistance.
In preparation for monitoring, the monitoring team will contact the Subrecipient to arrange a mutually convenient date for the visit, explain the purpose of the monitoring visit, and provide an advance copy of the monitoring tool.
HWS will follow a monitoring plan and conduct a Monitoring Entrance Meeting and Exit Meeting. During the Entrance meeting, the monitoring team will meet the Subrecipient's key personnel and provide an overview of the review process. At the Exit meeting, HWS will review and comment on areas which might present a concern or a finding during the visit.
HWS will prepare a Monitoring Report for the review no later than thirty (30) days after the visit. The Subrecipient will be given, if appropriate, thirty (30) days to respond to the report, including submission of a corrective action plan to address concerns/findings.
Subrecipients agree to facilitate and be subject to monitoring grant activities by HWS to ensure compliance with applicable State laws, regulations, and requirements. In addition, the projects will be evaluated for state performance measures outcomes. The monitoring must cover each program, function, or activity:
1. Monitoring of the homeless service provider shall occur whenever deemed necessary by HWS, but at least once during the grant period.
2. HWS will monitor the performance of the Subrecipient based on a risk assessment and according to the terms of this Agreement.
3. HWS will monitor the Subrecipient and funded project based on the performance measures used by State and indicated in the funding sources' Standard Agreement.
In the event that project- level or system-wide performance consistently remains in the lowest quartile compared to all participant Service Areas in the Continuum of Care allocation, HWS will work collaboratively with the Subrecipient to develop performance improvement plans which will be incorporated into this Agreement.
4. If it is determined that a Subrecipient falsified any certification, application and/or CAIJRI01200.10107\10274859.5

HWS may impose any other actions permitted by the State.
J. BREACH AND REMEDIES
Subrecipients' failure to comply with the terms of their contract will result in a breach of this Agreement.
The following shall each constitute a breach of this Agreement:
• Subrecipient's failure to comply with the terms or conditions of this Agreement.
Use of, or permitting the use of, ERF funds provided under this Agreement for any ineligible activities.
• Any failure to comply with the deadlines set forth in this Agreement.
K. HOUSING QUALITY STANDARDS
Subrecipients of state funding must abide by Housing Quality Standards (HQS) and suitable dwelling size required under 24 CFR 982.401 and § 578.75(b). In addition, Subrecipients must provide housing or services that comply with all applicable State and local housing codes, licensing requirements, and any other requirements in the project's jurisdiction.
Subrecipients, prior to providing assistance on behalf of a program participant, must physically inspect each unit to assure that the unit meets housing quality standards. This requirement is designed to ensure that program participants are placed in housing that is decent, safe, and sanitary, and suitable for living.
This applies to tenant-based rental unit, project-based rental unit, and master leased housing and where state funded payments are made. Assistance will not be provided for units that fail to meet HQS, unless the owner corrects any deficiencies within 30 days from the date of the initial inspection and the recipient or Subrecipient verifies that all deficiencies have been corrected, per §578.75(b)(1).
Subrecipients must follow the HQS General Requirements listed below and must complete form HUD52580 HQS Inspection Checklist (24 CFR § 982.401) for each assisted household (See Exhibit D on page 30):
• Sanitary facilities;
• Food preparation and refuse disposal;
• Space and security;
• Thermal environment;

• Water supply;
• Lead-based paint;
• Access;
• Site and neighborhood;
• Sanitary condition; and
• Smoke Detectors.
Following are the types of inspections to be performed:
1. Initial: An inspection that must take place to ensure that the unit passes HQS before assistance can begin;
2. Annual: An inspection to determine that the unit continues to meet HQS; this inspection must be conducted within 12 months of the last annual inspection;
3. Complaint: An inspection caused by the authority receiving a complaint from any source regarding the unit by anyone;
4. Special/Quality Control: An inspection requested/conducted by a third party. HWS will verify that the initial and annual inspections were conducted during project monitoring which will occur approximately 6 months' after project implementation.
HWS will monitor Housing Quality Standards (HQS) in accordance with the Code of Federal Regulations 24 CFR 578.75(b) and 24 CFR Part 982, by conducting quality control inspections for a sample of ten percent (10%) of a project's actively enrolled units. The purpose of Quality Control inspections is to ascertain that Subrecipients are conducting accurate and complete inspections, and to ensure that there is consistency among inspectors in the application of HQS.
L. LEASE AGREEMENT
A written lease agreement between the property owner and the program participants is required for state funded tenant-based rental assistance (TBRA) projects and project- based rental assistance (PRBA) projects. For program participants living in housing with PBRA, the lease must have an initial term of at least one year, is renewable, and is terminable only for cause. There is no minimum lease period for TBRA. The leases must be automatically renewable upon expiration for terms that are a minimum of one month long, except on prior notice by either party.
Subrecipient must retain a copy of a fully executed and current lease-agreement in the participant's file.

DocuSign Envelope ID: 4F6F35D6-11CD-44D9-93AF-FAED760783FC M. RENT REASONABLENESS
The Subrecipient must determine whether the rent charged for the unit receiving rental assistance is reasonable in relation to rents being charged for comparable unassisted units, taking into account the location, size, type, quality, amenities, facilities, and management and maintenance of each unit. Reasonable rent must not exceed rents currently being charged by the same owner for comparable unassisted units per § 578.51 (g). Reasonable rent comparable must be within 1 mile of the unit receiving rental assistance.
The Subrecipient agrees to obtain and retain records of rent reasonableness for all CoC Program participants prior to providing assistance.
N. COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL LAWS
This section is to ensure compliance with applicable federal laws. • Faith-Based Activities
Pursuant to Section 8406 (b) (2) of the State Regulations, Subrecipient shall not require, as a condition of program participant housing, participation in any religious or philosophical ritual, service, meeting or rite. Equal treatment of program participants and program beneficiaries must beensured. • Program participants. Organizations that are religious or faith-based are eligible subrecipients, on the same basis as any other organization, to receive state funding.
Neither the Federal Government nor a State or local government receiving funds under HHAP shall discriminate against an organization on the basis of the organization's religious character or affiliation. Subrecipients of program funds shall not, in providing program assistance, discriminate against a program participant or prospective program participant on the basis of religion or religious belief.
Beneficiaries. In providing services supported in whole or in part with federal financial assistance, and in their outreach activities related to such services, program participants shall not discriminate against current or prospective program beneficiaries on the basis of religion, a religious belief, a refusal to hold a religious belief, or a refusal to attend or participate in a religious practice. • Separation of explicitly religious activities. Subrecipients of state funding that engage in explicitly religious activities, including activities that involve overt CAIJRI01200.10107\102748595
CAR 01200 1010710274859 2
DocuSign Envelope ID: 4F6F35D6-11CD-44D9-93AF-FAED760783FC religious content such as worship, religious instruction, or proselytization, must perform such activities and offer such services outside of programs that are supported with state or federal financial assistance separately, in time or location, from the programs or services funded under this part, and participation in any such explicitly religious activities must be voluntary for the program beneficiaries of the HUD-funded programs or services.
• Religious identity. A faith-based organization that is a Subrecipient of state funds is eligible to use such funds as provided under the regulations of this part without impairing its independence, autonomy, expression of religious beliefs, or religious character. Such organization will retain its independence from federal, State, and local government, and may continue to carry out its mission, including the definition, development, practice, and expression of its religious beliefs, provided that it does not use direct program funds to support or engage in any explicitly religious activities, including activities that involve overt religious content, such as worship, religious instruction, or proselytization, or any manner prohibited by law. • Among other things, faith-based organizations may use space in their facilities to provide program- funded services, without removing or altering religious art, icons, scriptures, or other religious symbols. In addition, a state-funded religious organization retains its authority over its internal governance, and it may retain religious terms in its organization's name, select its board members on a religious basis, and include religious references in its organization's mission statements and other governing documents.
• Involuntary Family Separation. Subrecipients must document its compliance with involuntary family separation requirements under § 578.93(e). • Prohibition against involuntary family separation. The age and gender of a child under age 18 must not be used as a basis for denying any family's admission to a project that receives funds under this part.
• Discrimination Policy. Federal and California State laws note that discrimination can be based on race, color, national origin or gender. Discrimination can also be based on age, religion, disability, familial status or sexualorientation.
O. HOUSING FIRST
Pursuant to Assembly Bill 101, Subrecipients of state funding must implement and incorporate the core components of Housing First, as provided in subdivision (b) of Section 8255 of the Welfare and Institutions Code. Core components of Housing First mean the following:

DocuSign Envelope ID: 4F6F35D6-11CD-44D9-93AF-FAED760783FC participation in services.
• Applicants are not rejected on the basis of poor credit or financial history, poor or lack of rental history, criminal convictions unrelated to tenancy, or behaviors that indicate a lack of "housing readiness".
• Acceptance of referrals directly from shelters, street outreach, drop-in centers, and other parts of crisis response systems frequented by vulnerable people experiencing homelessness.
• Supportive services that emphasize engagement and problem solving over therapeutic goals and service plans that are highly tenant-driven without predetermined goals.
• Participation in services or program compliance is not a condition of permanent housing tenancy.
• Tenants have a lease and all rights and responsibilities of tenancy, as outlined in California's Civil, Health and Safety, and Government Code. • The use of alcohol or drugs in and of itself, without other lease violations, is not a reason for eviction.
• Communities with coordinated assessment and entry systems, incentivesfor funding promote tenant selection plans for supportive housing that prioritize eligible tenants based on criteria other than "first-come-first-served", including, but not limited to, the duration or chronicity of homelessness, vulnerability to early mortality, or high utilization of crisis services. Prioritization may include triage tools, developed through local data, to identify high-cost, high-need homeless residents. • Case managers and service coordinators who are trained in and actively employ evidence-based practices for client engagement, including, but not limited to, motivational interviewing and client-centered counseling. • Services are informed by a harm-reduction philosophy that recognizes drug and alcohol use and addiction as a part of tenants' lives, where tenants are engaged in nonjudgmental communication regarding drug and alcohol use, and where tenants are offered education regarding how to avoid risky behaviors and engage in safer practices, as well as connected to evidence-based treatment, if the tenant so chooses. • The project and specific apartment may include special physical features that accommodate disabilities, reduce harm, and promote health and community and CAWRI01200.10107\10274859.5

P. TERMINATION OF ASSISTANCE TO PROGRAMPARTICIPANTS
Subrecipients may terminate assistance to a participant who violates program requirements or conditions of occupancy per California Health and Welfare Code §8255 and §578.91 (a).
The Subrecipient must provide a formal process that recognizes the due process of law in accordance with §578.91 (b). Subrecipients may resume assistance to a participant whose assistance has been terminated. Subrecipients that are providing permanent supportive housing for hard-to-house populations of homeless persons must exercise judgment and examine all extenuating circumstances in determining whether termination is appropriate.
A participant's assistance should be terminated only in the most severe cases §578.91 (c).
Q. PROJECT RENEWALS
ERF funding is one-time grants that are not eligible for project renewal.
R. CRIMINAL BACKGROUND
The Subrecipient providing services to minors is required to conduct criminal background records checks on all employees, subcontractors, and volunteers providing services under state funding. Subrecipients must retain a copy of the criminal background records verification and make available for review by HWS.

Encampment Resolution Funding Program

EXHIBIT A
AUTHORITY, PURPOSE, AND SCOPE OF WORK

The Program is administered by the California Interagency Council on Homelessness (Cal ICH) in the Business, Consumer Services and Housing Agency ("Agency"). ERF provides one-time, competitive grant funds to continuums of care and / or local jurisdictions as defined below. To date, there have been two rounds of the Encampment Resolution Funding Program. This Standard Agreement governs the Lookback Disbursement in Round 2 of the ERF Program ("ERF-2-L"). For this Standard Agreement, ERF-2-L is synonymous with "ERF" or "Program".
This Standard Agreement along with all its exhibits ("Agreement") is entered into by the Cal ICH and a continuum of care or a local jurisdiction ("Grantee") under the authority of, and in furtherance of, the purpose of the Program. In signing this Agreement and thereby accepting this award of funds, the Grantee agrees to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Request for Applications ("RFA") under which the Grantee applied, the representations contained in the Grantee's application, Cal ICH guidance or directives, and the requirements appearing in the statutory authority for the Program cited above. 2) Purpose
As stated in the RFA, the program incorporates two interdependent objectives. a) The Program funds local demonstration projects that feature data-informed, innovative service delivery models and cross systems collaborations that support individuals experiencing homelessness in encampments towards a meaningful path to safe and stable housing through non-punitive, low-barrier, person- centered, Housing First approaches. These projects must comply with the principles of Housing First as defined in Welfare and Institutions Code Section 8255, must serve a specific encampment site, and be designed to achieve sustainable outcomes for both recipients of services and the encampment site to be resolved.
