Motel Voucher Program and Shelter Services

The San Mateo County Human Services Agency (HSA) is responsible for administering federal, state, and county funded programs that protect our most vulnerable residents, provide safety net services, and provide work supports to help families achieve self-sufficiency. The agency is comprised of various branches such as Children and Family Services, Economic Self Sufficiency, Staff Development and Technology Services, Center on Homelessness, and Employment Services. HSA's Employment Services branch operates the Service Connect program which offers reentry and employment support services to justice-involved individuals to help them successfully reintegrate into the community and reduce recidivism. Services include case management, job training and placement, mentorship, transportation and clothing vouchers, temporary emergency shelter and food, and health services (screening and treatment for mental health/substance use). HSA is seeking proposals from qualified providers to administer a Service Connect Motel Voucher Program (MVP) and to designate/provide a minimum of 5 shelter beds (located in San Mateo County) for Service Connect clients in San Mateo County.
