The County of Greenville, South Carolina has been awarded a $162,699 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 two-year grant, which runs from February 2025 to February 2027, is to provide emergency shelter, rapid re-housing, homelessness prevention, and outreach assistance for individuals and families experiencing or at risk of homelessness in areas impacted by natural disasters.
Eligible activities under this grant include operating emergency shelters, providing rental assistance and move-in cost support for rapid re-housing, offering utility and rental assistance for homelessness prevention, and conducting outreach to connect unsheltered individuals with urgent services. The County of Greenville will both directly implement these activities and sub-award funding to local partners to carry out specific initiatives based on the community's needs. This grant aims to fill gaps in federal disaster assistance by providing long-term housing solutions for those experiencing pre-disaster homelessness and preventing homelessness among newly displaced individuals.
