Fort Worth Housing Solutions has received 256 new vouchers to young adults who have aged out of foster care, families with children whose lack of housing means the child or children will be placed in out-of-home care, and adults with disabilities under age 62.
This is especially great news given the enormous challenges many vulnerable citizens are facing due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Thank you, HUD!
The agency will issue the vouchers to eligible households on the existing wait list and also to young adults and families referred by the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services.
