The bill would renew a pilot program that helps people recovering from substance use disorders obtain stable temporary housing. It would cover 2026 through 2030 and provide at least $50 million. States could use up to 1 percent of an award to buy furniture for the housing. The bill would also require tracking grants in a housing department database and public annual reports on spending, projects, residents, and program strategies. States would be encouraged to favor facilities with services such as workforce training and follow-up with former residents.
People in recovery could be served by housing projects funded through the program. The bill does not guarantee housing or services to any individual. States receiving funds could use a small share for furniture and would be encouraged to prioritize certain facility practices.
The bill sets a funding floor of $50 million for the program. It does not provide a total spending estimate. States could spend no more than 1 percent of their awards on furniture.
