The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), through the Emergency Solutions Grant (CFDA 14.231) program, awarded a $132,732 Formula Grant to the New Mexico Mortgage Finance Authority (NMMFA) on February 7, 2025. The purpose of this grant is to fill a gap in federal disaster assistance for people experiencing or at risk of homelessness. The grant will fund a range of eligible activities, including emergency shelter, rapid re-housing, homelessness prevention, and outreach assistance for unsheltered individuals. NMMFA, as the state's official housing agency, will administer the grant and provide these services directly and through sub-awards to local governments, nonprofit organizations, and other partners. The grant is intended to assist individuals and families living in emergency shelters, transitional housing, or places not meant for human habitation, as well as those at risk of homelessness due to factors such as low income and severe overcrowding or imminent eviction.
