The Consolidated Plan consists of a five (5) year Strategic Plan and an Annual Action Plan. The Strategic Plan contains three (3) parts: 1) a housing, homeless, community and economic development needs assessment; 2) a housing market analysis; and 3) long-term strategies to meet priority needs. The A ction Plan describes the specific projects and activities that Pasadena will undertake in the coming year with its federal funds from the U. S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) to address those priority needs. The Action Plan also contains certifications indicating that the City will follow certain requirements such as furthering fair housing.
The Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) is an assessment of the (City) of Pasadena’s activity performance funded by the three HUD formula grant programs: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG); Home Investment Partnership Act (HOME); and Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG).
The CAPER describes the City’s performance for all HUD formula grant programs with respect to meeting the objectives and goals established in the City’s Five -Year Consolidated Plan and in corresponding Annual Action Plan. Program Year (PY) 2024 is the fifth and final year in the Five -Year Consolidated Pla nning Period (Program Years 2020-2024) for the City.

HOMELESS & OTHER SPECIAL NEEDS (CR-25)
Evaluate the jurisdiction’s progress in meeting its specific objectives for reducing and ending homelessness through:
Reaching out to homeless persons (especially unsheltered persons) and assessing their individual needs.
Homeless persons are reached through a Coordinated Entry System (CES) process that is designed to identify, engage, and prioritizeindividuals and families experiencing homelessness to ensure that those who request or need assistance are connected to proper housing and services. The CES is linked to street outreach throughout the CoC so that people sleeping on the streets and others least likely to access services are connected to resources i. Outreach workers engage people living outside and in vehicles an d work to connect them to resources such as shelter and permanent housing. The CoC advertises the CES process in various ways that include: 1) Flyers that describe the process and includes contact information; 2) Local 311 Citizens Service Center is set up to make referrals 3) Making information available at service sites including local meal programs; 4) Making information available at public locations; 5) Educating mainstream service providers; 7) Providing CES connection through low -barrier seasonal shelter programs; and 8) Referrals are made through a countywide 211 help line.
Addressing the emergency shelter and transitional housing needs of homeless persons.
In Program Year 2024 (PY24), Pasadena continued to expand and maintain its emergency shelter and transitional housing resources to meet the needs of individuals experiencing homelessness. The Bad Weather Shelter remained operational following its reopening in PY23, while the Continuum of Care (CoC) sustained its support for both weather - activated and year -round motel voucher programs, in addition to Pasadena’s existing congregate shelter programs. These combined efforts provided a total of 169 congregate shelter beds and 57 transitional housing beds, in addition to weather-activated and year- round motel voucher beds. Funding was also allocated to support Door of Hope and the David & Margaret Lee Home, further enhancing transitional housing capacity. These programs were supported through a combination of funding sources, including the City of Pasadena General Fund, Los Angeles County Measure H, the State of California’s Encampment Resolution Fund (ERF), Homeless Housing Assistance and Prevention (HHAP) funds, and federal ESG funds.
16 | P a g e
2024-25 Consolidated Annual Performance & Evaluation Report City of Pasadena
Helping low -income individuals and families avoid becoming homeless, especially extremely low-income individuals and families and those who are:
likely to become homeless after being discharged from publicly funded institutions and systems of care (such as health care facilities, mental health facilities, foster care and other youth facilities, and corrections programs and institutions); and, receiving assistance from public or private agencies that address housing, health, social services, employment, e ducation, or youth needs.
The City funds homelessness prevention programs that provide rental assistance and supportive services to very- and extremely low-income households with a variety of public funding sources including State of California HHAP, F amily Homelessness Challenge (FHC) grant , and federal ESG. Additionally, the City has allocated $100,000 of ESG RUSH funds to prevention activities which will commence in PY25.
The City recently partnered with the Los Angeles County Department of Children (DCFS) to administer new Foster Youth to Independence (FYI) rental assistance vouchers to households and individuals exiting foster care.
Helping homeless persons (especially chronically homeless individuals and families, families with children, veterans and their families, and unaccompanied youth) make the transition to permanent housing and independent living, including shortening the period of time that individuals and families experience homelessness, facilitating access for homeless individuals and families to affordable housing units, and preventing individuals and families who were recently homeless from becoming homeless again
Pasadena has an established Coordinated entry system (CES) which aims to quickly connect households experiencing homelessness with permanent housing . The system uses a hybrid approach, with a 24-hr central phone system for families and decentralized systems for individuals and youth that allows assessment by any agency or street outreach worker. Additionally, families can be referred directly by partner agencies, bypassing the 24-hr phone system. CES uses a population-specific CES survey tools along with program entry and exit dates to track LOT homeless. Matches to permanent housing are prioritized based on length of time homeless or length of time enrolled in a shelter or navigation program. Recent increased efforts to outreach to and prioritize for housing those with the longest histories of homelessness has resulted in an increase in the Pasadena Continuum of Care average length of time homeless. In addition, supportive services are offered to newly housed participant and participant households based upon need through various community partners.

HOME (CR-50)
Include the results of on -site inspections of affordable rental housing assisted under the program to determine compliance with housing codes and other applicable regulations.
Affordable rental housing that had on -site inspections in PY2 4 either passed their inspections or corrections were required that were subsequently addressed by owners, resulting in a passed inspection. In general, the items that needed corrections were routine maintenance matters.
Please list those projects that should have been inspected on -site this program year based upon the schedule in §92.504(d). Indicate which of these were inspected and a summary of issues that were detected during the inspection. For those that were not inspected, please indicate the reason and how you will remedy the situation.
The following projects were scheduled for inspections, and were inspected in PY24:
Hudson Oaks, Rosewood Court, Marv’s Place, Orange Grove Gardens. Generally, the issues detected during these inspections were routine maintenance matters; all corrective measures were performed by the owners. The following projects were also scheduled for PY24 but were not inspected: Pasadena Silvercrest, Villa Parke Homes, Villa Los Robles, and Pasadena Accessible Apartments. These projects were not inspected due to vendor procurement matters that are being resolved so that these projects will be inspected in PY25.
Provide an assessment of the jurisdiction's affirmative marketing actions for HOME units. 92.351(b)
The City requires that the appropriate affirmative fair housing marketing policies are followed by recipients of HOME funds. Where HOME -assisted projects are located within a community which is comprised of a significant percentage of minority populations, the City requires developers of such projects to conduct affirmative, targeted marketing within these communities. This requirement is further supported by a City policy which gives preference to household applicants who live in Pasadena. These efforts have resulted in positive outcomes overall. Please refer to IDIS project completion reports, which evidence that a significant proportion of beneficiary households belong to minority and/or underserved populations. In addition, construction projects sub sidized with HOME funds are subject to Section 3 regulations if over $200,000. Furthermore, developers of City -funded construction projects are required to comply with the City’s local hiring ordinance.

CDBG Performance Report (Annual Report)
Pasadena CDBG - document generated 9/19/2025 10:08 AM
Project Title: PY24 Community Social Services Program
Operating Agency: Armenian Relief Society
Contract Period: 7/1/24 - 6/30/25
Activity Code: 5 Other Public Services
National Objective: 570.208 (a)(2)(i)(C) LMC (Exclusive) Project Summary
The program will provide social services for low-income families with limited English language capability through needs assessment, case management, employment services, linkages with public benefits, referrals to community resources and other wrap around services. CDBG funds will be used for personnel and non-personnel costs.
Accomplishments
Performance Indicator: Persons Assisted
Quantitative Goal: 360 Cummulative: 303 Ratio: 84.17%
Annual Narrative
Over the course of the fiscal year, the Armenian Relief Society Social Services department provided a wide variety of services to 303 unduplicated clients. On the whole, 267 clients were from extremely- low income households, and 25 from very low-income households. The first quarter saw a lower overall number of clients due to a combination of factors, but by December 2024, over 150 unduplicated clients were served. Dedicated case managers provided tailored services to each client based on their needs, with everything from employment services to public benefits access and linkages, assistance with form completion, and overall case management.
The beginning of 2025 was an especially difficult time for Pasadena and adjacent communities. The Eaton Fire proved devastating, and our Pasadena office remained closed for many days out of an abundance of caution. Our Glendale office also closed, but only for a short time, and following the devastation, many area residents sought assistance. We experienced a shift in our clientele, with many having never sought social services assistance in the past, but now needing help with public benefits. On the other hand, we saw fewer clients than expected, as the Eaton Fire created a shift in people's immediate needs. Almost 150 unduplicated clients were seen from January through June.
We concluded our year with 62 clients seeking employment services, 67% of which secured employment. Our food pantry was utilized by 90 unduplicated clients, and though not tied directly to this grant, the ARS provided additional food and emergency needs support to hundreds of community members impacted by the Eaton Fire. During the holidays, 20 families were given toys and gifts as part of our community outreach efforts. A variety of social services was provided to 135 unduplicated clients as well.

Contract Period: 7/1/24 - 6/30/25
Activity Code: 05D Youth Services
National Objective: 570.208 (a)(2)(i)(C) LMC (Exclusive) Project Summary
The Youth of Promise (YOP) program provides youth development and diversion services to Pasadena youth ages 11-18 who have experienced one or multiple Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), and/or who have been diverted by local police departments in lieu of justice involvement. CDBG funds will be used for personnel costs.
Accomplishments
Performance Indicator: Persons Assisted
Quantitative Goal: 75 Cummulative: 60 Ratio: 80.00%
Annual Narrative
During the grant period, we were pleased to provide services designed to support youth in improving or developing their ability to self-manage, allowing them to navigate challenges using prosocial skills.
The services provided included case management, academic support through tutoring and advocacy, weekly sessions consisting of art, fitness and mindfulness, weekly gender specific life skill sessions, monthly community service with the Los Angeles Food Bank, outdoor education and camping, and field trips to museums and sporting events. On average, Youth of Promise provided more than 200 interactions with registered youth each month. While the majority of youth served were residents of Pasadena, the changing demographics in the city as well as the expansion of our work in March 2025 to include youth reentry services has expanded our geographic reach. We were pleased to reach 78% of our goal, registering 59 Pasadena youth for services. Of these youth: 90% showed improvements in interpersonal communication, conflict resolution and self-management; 100% of high school seniors graduated on time; 92% of students attending tutoring demonstrated improved grades, 90% of diverted youth completed their care plan, allowing youth to move forward with no record of justice involvement. These numbers do not reflect the estimated 700 youth annually our staff engages with on school outreach visits. Staff visits 5 PUSD schools weekly with opportunities to play games, create art, grab a snack, or talk to a caring adult. We anticipate that we will be able to reach 100% of our goal as students get to know us on our visits, and as we launch Boys and Girls Circles at schools in fall. We are thankful for the support of the CDBG funds.
