Community Housing - Housing & Urban Development (HUD) Shelter + Care Eligibility Screening

To qualify for Permanent Supportive Housing through GRO’s Community Housing Program, the individual must meet HUD’s definition of chronic homelessness and ACT criteria.

HUD’s definition of chronic homelessness is:

An unaccompanied homeless individual with a disabling condition who has either been continuously homeless for a year or more OR has had at least four (4) episodes of homelessness in the past three (3) years. To be considered chronically homeless, persons must have been sleeping in a place not meant for human habitation (e.g., living on the streets) and/or in emergency shelter during that time.
