ShelterCare Awarded $2 Million in HUD Funds

Today, everyone at ShelterCare received some wonderful news:

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development announced awards for the construction of 88 units of affordable housing for the very low-income elderly or persons with disabilities in various Oregon communities on Tuesday. 

ShelterCare was one of the recipients of HUD funds. We will receive a $1,977,500 capital advance and a three-year, $168,900 rent subsidy to build 16 units for adults with chronic mental illness on the site of our Brethren Housing Program in Springfield.
