The “Short-term Supported Housing” activity can be used to support the availability of short-term emergency shelter
or provide housing to households who are experiencing homelessness and living with HIV or AIDS.
Eligible costs under the activity include operational costs for shelter and related personnel costs.
HUD’s Emergency Solutions Grant (or “ESG” program) is the primary means for funding and operating emergency shelters
and this HOPWA activity is not intended to promote the general development and operation of emergency shelters.
As will be discussed, there are time and facility size limits on this activity.
