HUD is seeking a $190 million increase over its 2010 budget allocation for its targeted Homeless Assistance Grants which fund the Department’s “Continuum of Care (CoC)” programs. The increase will fully fund renewal projects and provide the resources necessary to begin implementation of the new HEARTH Act which will be rolled out in 2011. In addition, the budget request $85 million to fund 10,000 Housing Choice Vouchers for chronically homeless individuals and for homeless and near homeless families.
