Home-ARP Program

The Federal HOME-ARP program provides a total of $5 billion to assist individuals or households who are homeless, at risk of homelessness, and other vulnerable populations. It is funded through The American Rescue Plan (ARP). The funding can be used to provide housing, rental assistance, non-congregate shelter, and/or supportive services.

The City of Gary is slated to receive $2,490,094 in HOME-ARP funding to address homelessness & increase housing.  After seeking public input on the best way to spend those dollars, the City developed a Draft Allocation Plan for your review:
