City and County Homeless Policy

LAHSA, City of Los Angeles, County of Los Angeles

The Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA), the City of Los Angeles, and the County of Los Angeles are having community input sessions on the how the State's Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention (HHAP) Grant Program funds can be utilized.

This program, now in its third round of funding, is designed to provide resources to: (1) each Continuum of Care; (2) each of the 55 counties; and (3) the State's 13 largest cities. Locally, the $1 billion allocation includes:

LA CoC: $84.2 million
LA County: $82.3 million
LA City: $143.6 million

Uses of the funding are quite broad. Please see pages 15-16 of the NOFA for more details.
