Governor Newsom
announced new federally funded investments in long-term
supportive housing and wrap-around services for those leaving
carceral settings, with the goal of reducing recidivism and the
risk of homelessness. The HOME American Rescue Plan (HOME-ARP)
Reentry Housing Pilot Project (RHPP) will be administered by the
California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD)
and the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation
(CDCR), with $16 million in support from the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Development.
Grants are competitively funded and available to organizations
with significant experience in transitional and permanent
supportive housing for this population. Projects that receive
funding through this grant must be located in an
Eligible State HOME-ARP jurisdiction.
