Summary

The Emergency Solutions Grant, administered by the Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs, aims to assist homeless individuals and victims of domestic abuse. With an expected allocation of approximately $2.76 million for PY2025, these funds will not be earmarked for specific purposes but require a dollar-for-dollar match from subrecipients. The state may forgive up to $100,000 of the match under extreme circumstances, taking into account the urgency and distress of applicants.

Overview

The ESG Program is administered by the Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs (ADECA) and will be utilized to provide assistance to homeless persons and victims of domestic abuse as defined under the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act, as amended. Based on the PY2024 ESG allocation, the State can expect to receive approximately $2,755,795 in PY2025 ESG funds. However, this amount could also change based upon any future additional allocation(s) announced by HUD. No portion of these funds will be set aside for specific purposes. ESG dollars must be matched on a dollar for dollar basis by subrecipients. However, the State is incorporating into this Plan the option allowed by law and regulations to forgive up to $100,000 in required match when circumstances of extreme need indicate this is appropriate. The State will consider the urgency, need, and distress of the applicant when making such decisions.
