The CARES Act made grant funding available for the Emergency Solutions Grants Program to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus, among individuals and families who are homeless or receiving homeless assistance and to support additional homeless assistance and homelessness prevention activities to mitigate the impacts created by coronavirus.
Terms and Conditions Regarding Provision of Supportive Services.
Although HUD strongly encourages the use of supportive services when necessary, as required by the CARES Act, individuals and families experiencing homelessness must not be required to receive treatment or perform any other prerequisite activities as a condition for receiving shelter, rental assistance, or other services provided with ESG-CV funds.
Prohibition Against Duplication of Benefits. Section 312 (42 U.S.C. 5155) of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act, as amended (42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq.) prohibits duplication of benefits for programs that provide financial assistance to people or entities suffering losses because of a major disaster or emergency. “Duplication of benefits” occurs when Federal financial assistance is provided to a person or entity through a program to address losses resulting from a Federally-declared emergency or disaster, and the person or entity has received (or would receive, by acting reasonably to obtain available assistance) financial assistance for the same costs from any other source (including insurance), and the total amount received exceeds the total need for those costs.
