According to the Champaign-Urbana Tenant Union, common problems that occur because of inadequateaccess to legal representation include:• Loss of housing as a result of unfair eviction practices• Loss of rent, utility payments, or security deposits due to the tenant upon lease expiration• Inability to satisfactorily remedy unsafe building conditionsThe Champaign-Urbana Tenant Union estimates up to 600 clients each year need legal counseling orrepresentation, which they cannot afford. The quality of housing, as well as the quality of life for manypeople, would be dramatically improved if legal counseling and representation for tenant-landlordproblems were provided at little or no cost to the very low-income households for whom no legal help isnow available.SECTION 3D: HOMELESS NEEDSINTRODUCTIONThe HUD-prescribed matrix below provides a summary of the nature and extent of homelessness inChampaign County.Estimated Unmet Need –Relative PriorityCalculated From Combined SurveysIndividualsEmergency Shelter 4 MBeds Transitional Housing 25 HPermanent Housing 85 HTOTAL 114Persons in Families with ChildrenEmergency Shelter 6 HBeds Transitional Housing 40 HPermanent Housing 60 HTOTAL 106Source: Survey of Homeless Persons in Champaign-Urbana, conducted August, 2009.In the most recent survey of homeless persons in Champaign County (August 2009), 13 persons reportedchronic homelessness, i.e. have been homeless for more than one year or have suffered homelessness 4or more times in the last 3 years and having a disabling condition. Transitional homelessness occurswhen a housing crisis (i.e., loss of job, domestic violence) temporarily renders an individual or familyhomeless. When homeless services are provided, these persons usually are able to locate and obtainanother stable housing situation. In Champaign County, 14 percent of homeless persons would fall intothis category based on the most recent survey.Episodic homelessness refers to circumstances in which persons have recurrent problems with housing.Often these persons have substance addictions, seasonal/minimum wage income or sporadic domesticsituations that affect stable housing. In Champaign County, approximately 20 percent of homelesspersons would be episodic users of homeless services.Approximately 61 percent of the homeless respondents recently surveyed had been homeless for morethan one year or for four or more times during the past three years. However, chronic homelessness isdefined by HUD as a situation in which an unaccompanied person has been without a permanentresidence for a period of more than one year or for more than 4 times in the last 3 years and suffersNeeds Assessment: Housing and Homelessness 33
from a disabling condition (usually substance abuse or mental health issue) that is contributing to his/herhomelessness. Approximately 23 percent of persons accessing homeless services in Champaign Countywould be classified as chronically homeless. (Note: One reason families are not considered for thisdesignation is that if homeless for an extended period of time, children may be considered at risk ofneglect and taken under the care of the Illinois Department of Children & Family Services [DCFS] untilstable housing can be obtained.)The Urbana-Champaign Continuum of Care (CoC) has surveyed homeless persons in Champaign Countyseveral times during the past decade in an effort to accurately count the number of homeless individualsand families, to better understand the causes of homelessness and to plan services that will effectivelyaddress the needs of this population. In summary, the 2009 summertime survey reported that in oneweek Champaign County had approximately 594 homeless persons, of which 236 were adults, 358 werechildren.Priority Homeless NeedsThe need for facilities and services for homeless persons and homeless families with children, bothsheltered and unsheltered, and homeless subpopulations are depicted in the following HUD-prescribedContinuum of Care Homeless Populations and Subpopulations Chart.34 Needs Assessment: Housing and Homelessness
