HUD announces an additional $7.5 million in VASH voucher awards

 

On Friday, June 18, 2010, HUD announced an additional $7.5 million in additional funding through a second round of grants under HUD's Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing (HUD-VASH) Program which will allow local housing agencies to provide a permanent home for 1,255 homeless veterans. Working closely with local Veterans Affairs (VA) Medical Centers, local public housing agencies (PHAs) will target these grants specifically to homeless veterans in their area. Earlier this month, HUD announced $58.6 million in HUD-VASH grants to provide 7,500 vouchers for homeless veterans. This new announcement allows HUD to help a total of 9,000 homeless veterans.
