The City of Minneapolis received a $3,061,848 Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) Formula Grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (CFDA 14.241) on September 19, 2024. The grant will fund housing assistance and supportive services for low-income individuals living with HIV/AIDS and their families in the Minneapolis metropolitan area. Key funded activities include:
Tenant-based and facility-based rental assistance, transitional and short-term housing, and permanent housing placement services provided by sub-grantees Aliveness Project Inc. and Clare Housing. These organizations also offer comprehensive supportive services, such as case management, healthcare linkage, and community-based housing programs, to improve housing stability and access to care for HOPWA-eligible households.
The grant supports the City of Minneapolis's efforts to address the housing needs of this vulnerable population, aligning with the HOPWA program's goals of establishing stable housing, reducing homelessness risk, and improving health outcomes. The sub-awards to local non-profit providers demonstrate the city's collaborative approach to implementing HOPWA activities and delivering critical services to low-income individuals living with HIV/AIDS.
