Homeless Housing Services Program (HHSP)

Arlington residents at risk of homelessness can apply for assistance through the City’s Homeless Housing and Services Program (HHSP) which is a state funded initiative used in Arlington to help the homeless and those in imminent danger of becoming homeless. The City utilizes the funding in furtherance of its City Council adopted 10-year Plan to End Chronic Homelessness. The Arlington Housing Authority (AHA) has managed and operated this grant on behalf of the City since 2010.

The funds are primarily utilized for Arlington renters who are in imminent danger of being evicted from their rental unit and, without financial assistance, would become homeless. For persons already experiencing homelessness, funds will be used to help them re-enter stable rental housing by assisting with payment of the security deposit and first month’s rent. The City anticipates that it will serve approximately 85 families annually.
