Homelessness Prevention and Rapid Re-Housing (HPRP):

As part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, the Homeless Prevention and Rapid Re-Housing Program (HPRP) was created to provide financial assistance and services to either prevent individuals/families from becoming homeless or help those who are experiencing homelessness to be quickly re-housed and stabilized.

This program targets two populations: those who are currently in housing but are at risk of becoming homeless if not for this assistance, and those who are residing in shelters or on the street. Those meeting income and program eligibility requirements may be assisted with leasing, rental arrearages, security and utility deposits, utility arrearages and utility payments, and stabilization services/case management.

The HPRP is not a mortgage assistance program and does not provide any assistance for homeowners. If you are interested in the HPRP, please download the HPRP Contact List (PDF)  to locate the agency administering these funds in your area or visit the MSHDA Web site.
