Interfaith Residence, doing business as Doorways, received a $971,945 Project Grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development under the Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) program (CFDA 14.241). The award, effective January 27, 2026, through January 26, 2029, supports comprehensive housing and supportive services for low-income individuals living with HIV/AIDS and their families in St. Louis, Missouri.

The funding supports a range of evidence-based interventions including tenant-based and facility-based rental assistance, transitional and permanent supportive housing, short-term rent and utility assistance, and integrated supportive services such as case management, healthcare coordination, and housing counseling. These services are designed to promote housing stability, prevent homelessness, and facilitate long-term self-sufficiency among vulnerable populations with HIV/AIDS across the service area. Doorways, an established nonprofit with significant HUD grant administration experience, delivers these services consistent with HOPWA program requirements for addressing the housing and supportive service needs of low-income persons living with HIV/AIDS.
