Homeless assistance providers will receive $3.85 Million in grants from HUD.
"Nevada homeless assistance providers will start the new year off with a $3.85 million-dollar boost thanks to the Department of Housing and Urban Development awarding more than $1 billion in grants nationwide. President Clinton announced the grants on Saturday during his weekly radio address, saying, "The steps we're taking now will create new opportunity for the homeless, for hard-pressed working families and for those struggling to buy their first home." About $895 million of the grants will fund 2,633 projects in more than 350 communities nationwide to help homeless families move from temporary to permanent housing, get treatment for substance abuse and gain access to health care, job training and child care. About $150 million in grants will help 312 communities maintain emergency shelters. In Nevada $3.3 million will go toward transitional housing and support services, and about $500,000 will be used to help fund emergency shelters."
