Round 3 YHDP Application Now Available
The Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for the Round 3 Youth Homelessness Demonstration Program (YHDP) is now available. YHDP is an initiative designed to address systemic responses to youth homelessness and significantly reduce the number of youth experiencing homelessness in up to 25 participating communities (8 of which will be rural). HUD strongly encourages all communities to consider applying.
