Mental health care tied to homeless housing
HUD would start a pilot within 180 days. Up to 10 local Continuums of Care could get grants to refer people to Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics for mental health and substance use treatment. Only Continuums in the five states with the most homelessness per person, and within 50 miles of a clinic, could apply. Congress would authorize $50 million total for FY2025–FY2029, and up to 10% could fund technical help and the required report. You could qualify if you get CoC supportive housing, receive Social Security disability (Title II) or SSI (Title XVI), or are homeless with a disability under federal law.
