Ending Homelessness Fund
The Ending Homelessness Fund was established by the Texas state legislature in 2017. The program allows registrants of a motor vehicle in Texas to elect to contribute any amount to the Fund. The Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs (TDHCA) distributes the contributions to the Fund to eligible cities and counties that administer the current federally-funded Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) Program and state-funded Homeless Housing and Services Program (HHSP). Distributions are made at least once per fiscal year. The funds can be utilized to enhance the number and quality of emergency shelters, prevent homelessness, encourage self-sufficiency behaviors, or to help people to secure stable housing.
