The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $5,132,250 Formula Grant under the Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) program (CFDA 14.241) to the California Department of Public Health. This funding will support the provision of housing assistance, supportive services, program planning, and development costs to address the housing needs of low-income individuals living with HIV/AIDS and their families in California. Formula Grant recipients must identify eligible HOPWA activities in their Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plan for HUD approval. Eligible activities include tenant-based and facility-based rental assistance, transitional and short-term housing, permanent housing placement, case management, and related supportive services. The HOPWA program aims to establish stable housing, reduce homelessness risk, and improve access to healthcare for this vulnerable population. The California Department of Public Health will serve as the prime recipient and work with various sub-grantees, including county governments and non-profit organizations, to implement the grant activities throughout the state.
