   Georgia News:  Columbus Ga Homes, Fort Benning, Phenix City Real Estate.  Housing and Urban Development Secretary Donovan  awarded a $14,540,363 grant  to 11 grantees in Georgia.  Muscogee County and Columbus received $740,907, to re-house families who  fall  into homelessness and  to prevent them from becoming homeless in the first place.

   The Homeless  Prevention and  Rapid  Re-housing  Program is intended to help those  families that  need  finacnial assistance on a short  term  basis.  Families who have encountered  hardships  that  would  cause  them  to  become  homeless or are being  forced  to  live  in  a shelter  or on  the  streets  can  now  receive rental assistance  for up to 18 months.  State assistance is not  limited  to rent  but can include security deposits, utility deposits, utility payments, moving cost assistance and hotel vouchers.  Payment  will  only  be made to  third  parties,  such  as landlords and utility companies.

   HPRP has found that in many hardship cases a little help goes a long way to stabilize a family and in many cases alleviates the need for furher assistance.
