Sec. 11301. Findings and purpose

-STATUTE-

(a) Findings

The Congress finds that -

(1) the Nation faces an immediate and unprecedented crisis due

to the lack of shelter for a growing number of individuals and

families, including elderly persons, handicapped persons,

families with children, Native Americans, and veterans;

(2) the problem of homelessness has become more severe and, in

the absence of more effective efforts, is expected to become

dramatically worse, endangering the lives and safety of the

homeless;

(3) the causes of homelessness are many and complex, and

homeless individuals have diverse needs;

(4) there is no single, simple solution to the problem of

homelessness because of the different subpopulations of the

homeless, the different causes of and reasons for homelessness,

and the different needs of homeless individuals;

(5) due to the record increase in homelessness, States, units

of local government, and private voluntary organizations have

been unable to meet the basic human needs of all the homeless

and, in the absence of greater Federal assistance, will be unable

to protect the lives and safety of all the homeless in need of

assistance; and

(6) the Federal Government has a clear responsibility and an

existing capacity to fulfill a more effective and responsible

role to meet the basic human needs and to engender respect for

the human dignity of the homeless.

(b) Purpose

It is the purpose of this chapter -

(1) to establish an Interagency Council on the Homeless;

(2) to use public resources and programs in a more coordinated

manner to meet the critically urgent needs of the homeless of the

Nation; and

(3) to provide funds for programs to assist the homeless, with

special emphasis on elderly persons, handicapped persons,

families with children, Native Americans, and veterans.

Section 1. Federal member agencies acting through the Interagency

Council on the Homeless, established under title II of the Stewart

B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act [42 U.S.C. 11311 et seq.],

shall develop a single coordinated Federal plan for breaking the

cycle of existing homelessness and for preventing future

homelessness.

Sec. 2. The plan shall recommend Federal administrative and

legislative initiatives necessary to carry out the plan and shall

recommendations on ways to encourage and support creative

approaches and cost-effective, local efforts to break the cycle of

existing homelessness and prevent future homelessness, including

tying current homeless assistance programs to permanent housing

assistance, local housing affordability strategies, or employment

opportunities.

Sec. 11373. Allocation and distribution of assistance

-STATUTE-

(a) In general

The Secretary shall allocate assistance under this part to

metropolitan cities, urban counties, and States (for distribution

to local governments and private nonprofit organizations in the

States) in a manner that ensures that the percentage of the total

amount available under this part for any fiscal year that is

allocated to any State, metropolitan city, or urban county is equal

to the percentage of the total amount available for section 5306 of

this title for such prior fiscal year that is allocated to such

State, metropolitan city, or urban county.

(b) Minimum allocation requirement

If, under the allocation provisions applicable under this part,

any metropolitan city or urban county would receive a grant of less

than 0.05 percent of the amounts appropriated to carry out this

part for any fiscal year, such amount shall instead be reallocated

to the State, except that any city that is located in a State that

does not have counties as local governments, that has a population

greater than 40,000 but less than 50,000 as used in determining the

fiscal year 1987 community development block grant program

allocation, and that was allocated in excess of $1,000,000 in

community development block grant funds in fiscal year 1987, shall

receive directly the amount allocated to such city under subsection

(a) of this section.

(c) Distributions to nonprofit organizations

Any local government receiving assistance under this part may

distribute all or a portion of such assistance to private nonprofit

organizations providing assistance to homeless individuals. Any

State receiving assistance under this part may distribute all or a

portion of such assistance to private nonprofit organizations

providing assistance to homeless individuals, if the local

government for the locality in which the project is located

certifies that it approves of the project.

(d) Reallocation of funds

(1) The Secretary shall, not less than twice during each fiscal

year, reallocate any assistance provided under this part that is

unused or returned or that becomes available under subsection (b)

of this section.

(2) If a city or county eligible for a grant under subsection (a)

of this section fails to obtain approval of its comprehensive plan

during the 90-day period following the date funds authorized by

this part first become available for allocation during any fiscal

year, the amount that the city or county would have received shall

be available to the State in which the city or county is located if

the State has obtained approval of its comprehensive plan. Any

amounts that cannot be allocated to a State under the preceding

sentence shall be reallocated to other States, counties, and cities

that demonstrate extraordinary need or large numbers of homeless

individuals, as determined by the Secretary.

(3) If a State fails to obtain approval of its comprehensive plan

during the 90-day period following the date funds authorized by

this part first become available for allocation during any fiscal

year, the amount that the State would have received shall be

reallocated to other States and to cities and counties as

applicable, that demonstrate extraordinary need or large numbers of

homeless individuals, as determined by the Secretary.

(e) Allocations to territories

In addition to the other allocations required in this section,

the Secretary shall (for amounts appropriated after July 22, 1987)

allocate assistance under this part to the Virgin Islands, Guam,

American Samoa, the Northern Mariana Islands, the Trust Territory

of the Pacific Islands, and any other territory or possession of

may grant waivers to recipients unable to meet the requirement

under the preceding sentence if the recipient agrees to otherwise

consult with homeless or formerly homeless individuals in

considering and making such policies and decisions.

If an individual or family who receives assistance under this

part from a recipient violates program requirements, the recipient

may terminate assistance in accordance with a formal process

The following is the policy of the Congress:

(1) Each State educational agency shall ensure that each child

of a homeless individual and each homeless youth has equal access

to the same free, appropriate public education, including a

public preschool education, as provided to other children and

youths.

(2) In any State that has a compulsory residency requirement as

a component of the State's compulsory school attendance laws or

other laws, regulations, practices, or policies that may act as a

barrier to the enrollment, attendance, or success in school of

homeless children and youths, the State will review and undertake

steps to revise such laws, regulations, practices, or policies to

ensure that homeless children and youths are afforded the same

free, appropriate public education as provided to other children

and youths.

(3) Homelessness alone is not sufficient reason to separate

students from the mainstream school environment.

(4) Homeless children and youths should have access to the

education and other services that such children and youths need

to ensure that such children and youths have an opportunity to

meet the same challenging State student academic achievement

standards to which all students are held.
