Through an allocation from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Prince William County Office of Housing and Community Development (OHCD) provides funding to local non-profit organizations that assist homeless families and individuals in the Prince William Area. The non-profit organizations must provide shelter and services at emergency shelters, transitional housing facilities and seasonal shelters. Eligible activities for ESG include:
- Rehabilitation, repair and improvements to bring existing emergency shelters, transitional housing facilities and seasonal shelters into compliance with state and local health and building codes.
- Operation costs such as administration (including staff), maintenance, rent, utilities, insurance, supplies and furnishings for emergency shelters, transitional housing facilities and seasonal shelters.
- The delivery of essential human services that address issues such as employment, substance abuse, education or health where such services do not duplicate or supplant existing local services.
