Through this grant, the El Camino Real Housing Authority will implement a range of eligible activities, including permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS), and potentially homelessness prevention. The specific sub-recipient activities are not known at the time of the award. As a public housing authority, the organization has a history of leveraging various HUD programs to deliver comprehensive housing solutions and related services to low-income individuals and families in its community.
