HACB is a non-profit agency incorporated in 1946. The mission of HACB is to assist low and moderate income families, seniors, and disabled individuals of Butte County to secure and maintain high quality, affordable housing. Through Mental Health Services Act funding, the Department of Behavioral Health provides housing assistance payments and deposits for consumers participating in the program. The long-term goal is for consumers to maintain permanent housing as independently as possible. Departmental case managers work with consumers to determine their ability to enter into rental agreements with landlords and to solve problems in any area that affects their ability to stay in housing. The Department recommends entering into an agreement with HACB for the provision of housing assistance for the Butte County homeless, mentally ill population. The term of this agreement is July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021, with a maximum amount payable of $32,152. (Behavioral Health)
