U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development helping keep Coast families together
SUMMARY: In the U.S., the Department of Housing and Urban Development has awarded more than $376,000 to the South Mississippi Housing Authority to help keep coast families together and to address inadequate housing. This grant aims to help stabilize families by providing resources and staying with them. The Department has also provided a grant to Mississippi's First Lady's programs of hope, which is aimed at addressing the lack of resources in their state. Additionally, child protection services in Mississippi are under-resourced and overwhelmed, which has resulted in a lack of services for children in need. Ultimately, the goal is to provide resources to help families stay together and to address the lack of resources in Mississippi for children in need.
