Abstract: On May 20, 2009, Congress passed the Homeless Emergency Assistance and Rapid Transition to Housing Act of 2009 (HEARTH Act). The legislation creates the Rural Housing Stability Program (RHSP) to replace the Rural Homelessness Grant program. RHSP provides grants competitively for rural counties in lieu of grants under the Continuum of Care program. RHSP is designed to provide assistance for rural counties to re-house or improve the housing situations of individuals and families who are homeless or in the worst housing situations, stabilize the housing of individuals and families who are at risk of becoming homeless, and improve the ability of the lowest-income residents to afford stable housing. This justification covers the requirements for registering a county or local designee as the lead applicant for a geographical area as required by the HEARTH Act.
