Local Homeless Programs Get New Federal Funding from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
"A year ago, a program that serves 15 homeless families in the North Hills lost its own lease, raising questions about its future. On Tuesday, the HEARTH program -- like thousands of others nationwide that help shelter those in need -- found out that it will be able to keep roofs over heads for at least another year. The federal Department of Housing and Urban Development announced that it is steering nearly $1.5 billion to 7,100 programs that contend with homelessness, including $15.6 million to 101 programs in southwestern Pennsylvania."
