The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has awarded a $647,925 Emergency Solutions Grant (CFDA 14.231) to the South Dakota Housing Development Authority (SDHDA) to address homelessness and housing instability in the state. This two-year Formula Grant, valid from September 2024 to September 2026, will enable SDHDA to carry out a range of activities, including:
- Street outreach to engage homeless individuals and families
- Improve the operation and quality of emergency shelters
- Provide essential services to shelter residents
- Deliver homelessness prevention and rapid re-housing assistance to help individuals and families quickly regain permanent housing stability
As a state government housing agency, SDHDA plans to sub-award portions of this grant to local housing authorities, nonprofits, and community organizations to implement these targeted interventions across South Dakota communities. The grant funding is intended to support a comprehensive strategy for addressing homelessness by enhancing street outreach, emergency shelter services, and permanent housing solutions.
