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

homeless individuals and families. The plan shall also provide
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. 4. To the extent practicable, the Council shall consult with

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

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.
