The Community Plan Assessment Framework (CPA) is an analysis of the changes produced in each designated community as a result of the funding decisions the community made through the National Homelessness Initiative (NHI). As this assessment links directly to the Phase II Community Plan Update for each community, it cannot be completed by a single individual in isolation. It is the expectation of the Housing and Homelessness Branch (HHB) that completion of this CPA will be led by the Community Advisory Board (CAB), Community Entity (CE), Community Coordinator and/or relevant subcommittees in each of the designated communities through consultation with each community's homelessness stakeholders (as identified by each community).

We recognize that some communities may have set aside funds to hire a consultant to complete some or all of the information compilation and interviews with stakeholders; this is not an issue as long as the CAB/CE, Coordinator and/or relevant subcommittees continue to play an active role in the process.
