The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is providing $5.6 billion in funding that will go to 1,200 communities. These grants will support a wide range of activities including affordable housing, community development and homeless assistance. This will help low and moderate income people to be able to obtain suitable and affordable housing.
In 2022, similar programming helped over 45,000 people retain or obtain employment, and also helped over 350,000 people get emergency shelter as they transitioned to permanent housing.
