(Washington, DC) – U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), a senior member of the Senate Appropriations Committee, along with U.S. Senator Maggie Hassan (D-NH) and Representatives Annie Kuster (NH-02) and Chris Pappas (NH-01) welcomed $9,467,458 in federal funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) Continuum of Care Program. This program provides funding for nonprofits, states and local governments to quickly rehouse homeless individuals, families and youth, as well as individuals fleeing domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking.
“The pandemic exacerbated the affordable housing crisis in New Hampshire, leaving many already vulnerable families at even greater risk of losing their homes with nowhere to go. These grants could not come at a more critical time,” said Senator Shaheen. “This funding will help Granite State housing relief agencies, organizations and nonprofits provide shelter to those who need it most.”
“Housing is at the core of economic opportunity and strong communities, yet too many people in our state struggle to access affordable, safe housing,” said Senator Hassan. “This funding will bolster the work happening across our state to support vulnerable individuals and families and get them shelter. I will keep working with the delegation to provide much-needed resources to tackle the housing crisis and strengthen our efforts to provide housing to Granite Staters in need.”
“This federal funding heading to New Hampshire to help local organizations rehouse homeless individuals, families, those fleeing domestic violence and sexual assault, and other vulnerable Granite Staters in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic is critical,” said Representative Kuster. “Every family needs a safe place to live, and we cannot turn our backs on those in need, especially those who have experienced trauma. I will continue working to support survivors of violence and abuse and address homelessness in our state.”
“Our state continues to face a housing shortage, and we must provide the resources our communities need to ensure Granite Staters have access to shelter and support,” said Representative Pappas. “These federal funds will help organizations on the frontlines of this crisis support people across New Hampshire and ensure those most in need have a safe place to live. I promise to continue working across the aisle to ensure our families and communities get the housing support they need.”
