1 Pay for Success in Cuyahoga County In the community of Cuyahoga County Ohio, poverty rates are a major concern. According to the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey, Cuyahoga County maintains the highest number of low-income residents in the state of Ohio. The survey revealed Cuyahoga County as having about 18% of its population living at or below the poverty threshold of $19,000 for a family of three (as cited in Frech, 2016). This statistic is staggering when you take into account that the population of Cuyahoga County is roughly 1.25 million people, which means there are approximately 225,000 people living at or below the poverty threshold. Figure 1 below shows the disparity between poverty in Cuyahoga County as compared to the state of Ohio. Figure 1 – Disparity Between Cuyahoga County and the State of Ohio Accordingly, the high levels of poverty in Cuyahoga County have created a significant population of homeless. While homelessness is an unacceptable condition for any human being, it is much more so for children. According to the Northeast Ohio Coalition for the Homeless, there were over 2,646 children living in unstable housing 2 conditions or were homeless in 2016 ( 2016). To combat the problem of homeless children, Cuyahoga County implemented the Cuyahoga Partnering for Family Success Program. Therefore, the purpose of this essay is to provide insight into how Cuyahoga Country is combatting child homelessness through the Cuyahoga Partnering for Family Success Program. To fully understand the Cuyahoga Partnering for Family Success Program, it is important to first recognize Pay for Success (PFS). In Developing the Cuyahoga Partnering for Family Success Program, Pay for Success is defined as an Innovative contracting model that drives government resources towards highperforming social programs in areas such as poverty, education, child welfare, recidivism, homelessness, and wellness. PFS contracts track the effectiveness of intervention programs over time to ensure that funding is directed toward programs that succeed in measurably improving the lives of people most in need (2016). To fully comprehend the Pay for Success program, it is necessary to understand the role of each participant. Government’s role is to identify social issues with relatively poor success rates from past programs. For example, Cuyahoga County identified both homelessness and early childhood as having historically poor outcomes. Private funders such as foundations, banks, and businesses then provide upfront capital to help finance social programs targeting the Government’s identified issue. Service providers then deliver services to the identified social group. To evaluate the success of these services, 3 an independent evaluator measures the outcome. Finally, Government then repays the private funders only when there is a success in the programs. Figure 2 provides a visual workflow of the Pay for Success program. Figure 2 – Pay for Success Workflow Through the Pay for Success workflow, the primary goal of the Cuyahoga Partnering for Family Success Program is to reduce the number of days children spend in foster care. Children are placed in foster care when caregivers are homeless, or when domestic violence, substance abuse, and mental illness are present. In order to achieve the 4 goal of the program, Cuyahoga County has chosen to partner with the service provider FrontLine. FrontLine uses “an evidence-based homelessness transition therapy known as ‘Critical Time Intervention (CTI). CTI helps vulnerable families that are experiencing homelessness to slowly reconnect to community support networks and settle successfully in newly attained housing “Fact Sheet: The Cuyahoga County Partnering for Success Program”, n.d.). The program will also include Child Parent Psychotherapy and Trauma Adapted Family Connections to help in achieving the goal of the Cuyahoga Partnering for Family Success Program. Finally, the ultimate aim for a Pay for Success program is to ensure service providers are held accountable for results. Since private investors fund most of the programs, a return on investment is expected. To receive the return on investment, a program must achieve certain pre-determined criteria. If the program does not achieve the target results then the government does not have to repay the investors. This provides an 5 incentive for everyone involved to work towards a successful program. If the program does achieve the desired results then the government will pay a small return on investment. This modal ensures taxpayer dollars are protected. In Cuyahoga County, for example, investors provided $4 million in upfront funding, and if the program is successful then Cuyahoga County will pay a maximum of $5 million (“Fact Sheet: The Cuyahoga County Partnering for Family Success Program”, n.d.). In conclusion, the Cuyahoga County Partnering for Family Success Program is an innovative approach to combatting social issues. Since the programs launch in 2014, Cuyahoga County has seen a significant reduction in the number of children experiencing unstable housing or homeless conditions. In 2014-2015 the number of children experiencing these conditions was approximately 4,046. Compared to the 2016 number of 2,646 children, it is evident that social programs using Pay for Success like the Cuyahoga County Partnering for family Success Program work for families in my community 6 References Cleveland Homeless Blog - NEOCH - Homeless - Cuyahoga - Ohio -Homelessness Poverty - Ohio.

High levels of poverty in Cuyahoga County have created a significant population
of homeless. While homelessness is an unacceptable condition for any human being, it is
more so for children and young adults. According to the Northeast Ohio Coalition for the
Homeless, there were over 2,646 children living in unstable housing conditions or were
homeless in 2016 ( 2016). To combat the problem of homeless children, several social
programs have been implemented in Cuyahoga County. However, the funding for these
programs is typically inadequate, and many of these programs are not held accountable
for results. Therefore, I propose to you, the Cuyahoga County Executive, the use of
private-public partnerships, in particular, the Pay for Success program, to fund all social
programs that deal directly with improving the lives of homeless children.
The funding of social programs has always been difficult. To successfully
implement a social program, the process requires money and a force of administrative
workers. In most cases, partnerships are formed to develop a successful social program.
Programmatic partnerships are usually made up of two or three organizations, which are
focused on dev...
