To Whom It May Concern:
A subcommittee consisting of Julie Almond (HealthFirst Family Care Center), Nicole Almeida (BayCoast Bank) Tracy Ibbotson (Steward Healthcare System/St. Anne’s Hospital), Dan Long (BayCoast Bank) Janet Ricchardi (United Way of Massachusetts Bay and Merrimack Valley), Meg Rogers (United Way of Greater Fall River), and Anna Thomas (Together We Stand) met on August 23, 2022, to review and rank the renewal projects that will be part of the Fall River CoC application this year.
After careful thought and consideration, the subcommittee formulated the ranking of the seven
(7) programs for the CoC application that you will find below. In reaching this decision, the subcommittee took into consideration the importance of several factors: utilization of contract funds from prior years as well as a review of programmatic performance measures. Please note that the performance indicator of percent of participants with zero income entry was not factored due to all projects’ performance on this being below the HUD minimum (80%).
The recommendation committee is grateful for the opportunity to be a part of the review process and appreciative of the time that representatives from all projects gave in meeting with us to explain “their respective projects and answer all of our questions.
