DOH Homelessness Resolution Program (HRP) Mission
Previously named the Emergency Solutions Grant, DOH allocates HRP funding annually through a competitive application process. HRP is the first step in a continuum of assistance to prevent homelessness and enable individuals and families experiencing or at risk of homelessness to move toward permanent housing.
HRP Program Objectives
- DOH’s HRP program aims to end homelessness by connecting those experiencing or at risk of homelessness to the appropriate resources as quickly as possible with few, if any, barriers;
- Increase the number and quality of housing resources for individuals and families experiencing homelessness.
- Operate emergency shelter facilities, prioritizing shelters that are low-barrier and housing-focused
- Provide essential social services for those living outdoors, in emergency shelters, at risk of homelessness, or in rental assistance programs.
