If we were to partner with an agency through a subcontract where they master lease units that would be specified for the IST population, could we still provide the supportive ongoing services and receive funding as counted toward those designated beds?

The funding available through this opportunity is meant to purchase, build, or renovate facilities. If a county partners with a subcontractor to master lease beds that do not require infrastructure funding, the county will need to utilize dollars from the Diversion or CBR service contract with DSH. DSH is currently finalizing the details of the permanent services program and information about how to contract with DSH will be released soon.
