The California Interagency Council on Homelessness (Cal ICH) has
released a
Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for nearly $300 million
in grant funding through the Encampment Resolution Funding
Program to support local government efforts to clean up
encampments and transition those living on the street into safe
and stable housing. Eligible applicants include counties, cities,
and Continuums of Care (CoCs). Applications will be accepted on a
rolling basis until June 30, 2024, or until funds are depleted,
whichever occurs first. Up to 50 percent of funds awarded will be
prioritized for projects that serve people living in encampments
on the state right of way. Additional information about the
Encampment Resolution Funding Program, including previously
awarded projects, can be found on the Cal ICH
webpage.
