Homeless Prevention and Rapid Re-Housing (HPRP)

The purpose of this program is to help those individuals and families who would be homeless but for this assistance and who can be reasonably expected to maintain stable housing once the assistance ends.

Funding to support these services will come from the Homeless Prevention and Rapid Re-Housing Program (HPRP), which was created by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (2009) and allocated to the County of Santa Clara and State of California by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).
