SEMI-ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT FOR
Transitional Housing Assistance
Grant Program
Brief Instructions: This form must be completed for each Transitional Housing Assistance Grant Program
(Transitional Housing Program) grant received. The grant administrator or coordinator must ensure that the
form is fully completed. Grant partners, however, may complete sections relevant to their portion of the grant.
Grant administrators and coordinators are responsible for compiling and submitting a single report that reflects all information collected from grant partners.
All grantees should read each section to determine which questions they must answer, based on the activities supported under this grant during the current reporting period. Sections B and E of this form must be
completed by all grantees. Subsections A1 and C1 must be answered by all grantees. In section D, and subsections A2, A3, C2, and C3, grantees must answer an initial question about whether they supported certain
activities during the current reporting period. If the response is yes, then the grantee must complete that
section or subsection. If the response is no, the rest of that section or subsection is skipped.
For example, 1) if you are an organization using Transitional Housing Program funds to provide services
through grant-funded staff, you would complete A, B, C1, D, and E (and answer ‘no’ in C2 and C3); or 2) if you
are an organization using Transitional Housing Program funds solely for staff to participate in your local continuum of care, you would complete A, B, C1, and E (and answer ‘no’ in C2, C3, and D).
The activities of volunteers or interns may be reported if they are coordinated or supervised by Transitional
Housing Program-funded staff or if Transitional Housing Program funds substantially support their activities.
For further information on filling out this form, refer to the separate set of instructions, which contains detailed definitions and examples illustrating how questions should be answered.

What percentage of your Transitional Housing Program grant was directed to each of these areas?
(Report the area[s] addressed by your Transitional Housing Program grant during the current reporting

Throughout this form, the term sexual assault includes both assaults committed by offenders who are
strangers to the victim/survivor and assaults committed by offenders who are known to, related by
