Homeless Assistance Program Overview
Pursuant to Title V of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance
Act, state and local governments, as well as nonprofit
organizations, are eligible to apply for land and buildings
that have been determined to be "suitable and available."
Properties may be used for a wide variety of programs

limited to, emergency shelters, transitional programs
(with occupancy limited to 24 months), food banks, job
training, storage facilities, or administrative space.

HUD for a determination of suitability for homeless
use. Properties determined suitable and available are
posted on the Resource Center for 60 days to provide
notice to interested parties.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)
HUD collects information from all land holding agencies
concerning their unutilized, underutilized,
excess and surplus properties and determines which are
