The purpose of this policy bulletin is to inform staff of the development of two new forms and one revised form for use by Homelessness Diversion Unit (HDU) staff located at the (PATH) site. PATH is a Department of Homeless Services–operated central intake site for families seeking emergency temporary housing. It is located at 346 Powers Avenue, Bronx, New York. An HDU that diverts families from entering the Department of Homeless Services(DHS) shelter system by exploring alternative housing options and making appropriate referrals for preventative and supportive services is co-located at the PATH site.
