DRC Mobile Assessors provide outreach services to ensure unsheltered citizens experiencing homelessness have access to housing opportunities in the community. This team locates individuals and families experiencing unsheltered homelessness, completes assessments for housing, helps them gather documentation required for housing program eligibility, and connects them with individual-appropriate housing interventions within the Tarrant County Continuum of Care.
This is a new partnership between the DRC and the City of Fort Worth, unofficially launched in October 2020. As of late November 2020, the team had provided one or all of the services above to approximately 90 clients. In 2021, this team will expand to include additional mobile assessors embedded with the Hope Team, JPS Care Connections, and My Health My Resources Tarrant County (MHMR).
