INDIANAPOLIS — The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) announced a $1.5 million award to the Indiana Housing and Community Development Authority (IHCDA) that will benefit youth and young adults (YYA) who live with homelessness and housing insecurity throughout Indiana.
The grant will allow IHCDA to improve identification of youth in need and make it easier for youth to navigate available services. The grant will also make it possible to:
• Focus on systemic change by funding projects that create and build capacity for Youth Action Boards
• Collect and use data on at-risk youth and youth experiencing homelessness
• Develop strong leaders within a community and improve the coordination, communication, operation and administration of homeless assistance projects to better serve youth, including prevention and diversion strategies
