Failure to participate in supportive services or treatment programs; <br /> <br />2. Failure to make progress on a housing stability plan; <br /> <br />3. Alcohol and/or substance use in and of itself is not considered a reason for <br />termination; <br /> <br />4. Households residing in emergency shelter must not be exited to <br />homelessness due to reaching a maximum stay limit; and <br /> <br />5.
