Department of Housing and Urban Development gives LA city and county $60M to fund motels and other homeless shelters.
Los Angeles received $60 million in federal funding on Thursday, Feb. 2, to address homelessness as part of what officials described as a first-of-its-kind grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
The money will be used for outreach and funding motels and other shelters along with permanent housing, according to LAHSA’s new CEO, Va Lecia Adams Kellum. It will also be used to support Mayor Karen Bass’ Inside Safe initiative, which aims to bring encampment residents indoors. Doug Guthrie, executive director of the Housing Authority of the City of Los Angeles, said that the $60 million will be spent quickly and wisely. Guthrie said it will allow the city to provide more housing vouchers to people living in encampments, in addition to deep wraparound services and housing navigation.
