This legislation amends the Continuum of Care program under the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act to prevent the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development from restricting grants to certain types of organizations. It ensures that funding is available to grantees that require supportive services like counseling, job training, or addiction treatment , or those that mandate preconditions such as sobriety or lack of drug use for program participation, including faith-based organizations . A significant provision mandates that at least 50 percent of these funds must be used by entities providing or offering access to comprehensive wraparound services . The bill also requires the Secretary to annually certify compliance with these directives to Congress. This includes reporting on how Notices of Funding Opportunity reflect these new eligibility and allocation requirements.
