The Regional Continuum of Care Council (RCCC) operates as an unincorporated association (also referred to as the CoC Advisory Board), while the RTFH supports the RCCC as a separate legal entity, serving as the HUD Collaborative Applicant, the Unified Funding Agency, and the Administrative Entity for all funding related to the HEARTH Act.

The nomination and selection of the CoC Advisory Board Members is the prerogative of the members of the RTFH through the election process.  These members should provide an appropriate mix of skills to provide the necessary breadth and depth of knowledge and experience to meet the Board’s responsibilities and objectives. The Board also aims for a composition that will appropriately represent the interests of RTFH stakeholders, the local community, and will reflect diversity in its composition by recruiting members with varied geographical, social, economic, environmental, business, and cultural backgrounds. The Board should maintain a reasonable balance with respect to age and gender and must also include at least one homeless or formerly homeless individual. More information about the federal requirements of a CoC Board can be found here.
