INDIANAPOLIS (Inside Indiana Business) – The  U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development is awarding nearly $2.2 billion in grants to support local programs addressing homelessness across the country. The funding includes nearly $24 million for 89 Indiana programs through HUD‘s Continuum of Care grants.

More than $9.4 million was awarded through the Indiana Housing and Community Development Authority and more than $6.3 million through the city of Indianapolis.

 “Local agencies across Indiana have worked diligently to end homelessness resulting in nearly a -15.2% reduction in overall homelessness since 2010,” said HUD Midwest Regional Administrator Joseph P. Galvan. “We hope to keep the momentum going and are here to support agencies in their tireless efforts to end homelessness as we know it.”
