About
2018 was a year of tremendous growth and change for The Gathering Inn. In late May 2018, The Gathering Inn was awarded the contract to operate the fixed shelter located in the Mid Placer Auburn region. The decision by The Placer County Board of Supervisors to make a change in its existing provider and award this contract to TGI was due in no small part to the outstanding outcomes TGI has achieved in its South Placer Roseville location as well as the organizations focus on collaboration with other community partners and attention & response to the needs and concerns of the organizations surrounding neighbors. This contract award has positioned The Gathering Inn as the largest homeless emergency shelter and services provider in Placer County, now serving an average of 176 homeless guests each day through our four programs.The Gathering Inn has already implemented several strategic changes at the Mid Placer program since officially taking over operations on July 1, 2018. These include more robust case management plans, guest rules & regulations and developing strong community relations with our neighboring families and businesses. The program is already achieving strong outcomes with 69 of the 260 (27%) guests served from July 1 December 31 exiting to housing. The Gathering Inns South Placer program continues to provide not only basic needs such as food & shelter, clothing, shower & laundry facilities, but also comprehensive wrap-around services including case management and on-site medical and dental clinics. More than 350 patient visits were provided pro-bono in 2018 by a caring staff of volunteer doctors, dentists, nurses and dental hygienists amounting to hundreds of thousands of dollars of free medical & dental care provided to our homeless guests.Our Resource Center in South Placer provides a safe environment for our guests during the day and offers nourishing snacks, bathroom facilities, access to computers, job placement services, case management services, life skills classes and our Access to Recovery substance abuse treatment program. An average of 71 people utilized the Resource Center on a daily basis in 2018. Our Interim Care Program in Auburn, a collaboration with Sutter and Kaiser Hospitals, is entering its 11th year of operation. This Interim Care Program provides a safe environment for homeless patients medical recovery for up to 6 weeks after being released from local hospitals and emergency rooms. The program also provides case management services to connect to social services & benefits and primary care physicians. This program has proven to be a tremendous benefit to our community by reducing the recidivism rate at local emergency rooms and significantly reducing the burden of additional costs & resource utilization on local hospitals. The program served 50 homeless individuals in 2018. Our second Interim Care Program, supported by Placer County Whole Person Care, has been operational since October 2017. The WPC-ICP has served 37 unique guests and provided nearly 2,500 additional nights of recuperative care in its 15 months of operation. Placer County has been so impressed with our Director of Interim Care Programs that they awarded him the Placer County Public Health Excellence Award in 2018 to recognize his dedication to compassionate service for our homeless guests and his outstanding outcomes.163 out of 383 individual guests served who stayed in our program 10 days or more (54%) obtained housing in 2018. 92 guests found employment, 44% were connected to CalFresh benefits and 54% secured an increase in their income.
