City Received Federal Award for Housing & Homelessness Prevention

INDIANAPOLIS — City officials and other community partners recently announced that Indianapolis received $9.9 million in Continuum of Care (CoC) funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The funds will support over 20 community projects serving uniquely high-risk residents seeking affordable housing and barrier-busting services across Marion County.
This year’s round of funding goes toward three new projects supporting uniquely affected populations:
• 13 Rapid Recovery units for Salvation Army clients fleeing domestic violence
• 22 units for clients who are youth and young adults who are 24 years of age and younger with Partners in Housing at Sherman Forest
• 30 units for Horizon House clients who are chronically homeless persons.
