Emergency Shelter Grants (ESG) are awarded to programs providing emergency shelter, transitional housing, and/or related supportive services for homeless individuals and/or families.
ESG funds may be used for operating costs, essential services, homeless prevention acitvities, and/or Continuum of Care (CoC) coordinating expenses. Funds are distributed annually through allocations to community-based CoC Planning Bodies. These CoC Bodies, in turn, make funding recommendations for local programs. Grants awarded to eligible organizations through this process will be issued for a one-year term (April 1, 2009 - May 31, 2010). Please review the statewide CoC listand contact your local CoC Chairperson for further information.
