Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) program

The Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) program provides funding to help individuals and families experience homelessness or at risk of becoming homeless. It supports a range of services such as emergency shelter, rapid rehousing, prevention, and outreach to connect people with necessary resources. The goal is to stabilize those experiencing homelessness quickly and prevent future episodes by addressing immediate needs and supporting long-term housing solutions. Administered by local jurisdictions, ESG funding aims to reduce homelessness through coordinated and effective interventions.
