The County of Lee, Florida was awarded a $529,738 Formula Grant under the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Emergency Solutions Grant (CFDA 14.231) program. The purpose of this 2-year grant is to provide assistance for the RAPID UNSHELTERED SURVIVOR HOUSING (RUSH) program, which aims to fill a gap in federal disaster assistance for people experiencing or at risk of homelessness. Eligible activities include emergency shelter, rapid re-housing, homelessness prevention, and outreach assistance for unsheltered individuals. This funding will enable the County to deliver long-term housing solutions for people experiencing pre-disaster homelessness and prevent new homelessness among disaster-displaced populations in the Fort Myers, FL area. As a HUD Formula Grant, the award was provided directly to the County of Lee as the eligible local government entity.
