Manchin and Capito Announce More Than $8 Million to Combat Homelessness

Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senators Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV) announced $8,327,359 for 63 local homeless assistances programs across West Virginia. The funding was awarded through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Continuum of Care program and will help support local programs serving individuals and families experiencing homelessness.

“This funding will make sure West Virginians struggling with homelessness including, children, seniors and Veterans, have a roof over their heads and have access to the resources and support they need to get back on their feet,” Senator Manchin said. “In West Virginia, we have a strong tradition of neighbors helping neighbors so I’m glad 63 programs throughout our state are receiving this funding to continue to help those who have fallen on hard times.”

“West Virginians look out for one another,” Senator Capito said. “Local organizations that are on the ground in our communities are critical to addressing homelessness, particularly during the winter season. This funding will help those organizations assist individuals and families in getting off the streets, hopefully putting them on the path toward a brighter future.”
