Exciting news! The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has awarded $12.9 million to 16 Public Housing Agencies in 9 states to help young adults in foster care find affordable housing.

Through the Foster Youth to Independence (FYI) initiative, HUD is investing in a community response to homelessness faced by child welfare involved youth. This will provide Housing Choice Voucher assistance to young adults who are transitioning out of foster care and experiencing or at risk of experiencing homelessness. At United Friends, we are thrilled to see these efforts to ensure safe, stable, and affordable homes for our youth! Find out more: http://bit.ly/3nudLeT
