This program is authorized by 34 U.S.C.

with support services for victims who are homeless or in need of transitional housing as a result of a situation of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault or stalking; and whom emergency shelter services or other crisis intervention services are unavailable or insufficient.

The term homeless means an individual who lacks a fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence, and includes an individual who is sharing the housing of other persons due to loss of housing, economic hardship, or a similar reason.

An individual who is living in a motel, hotel, trailer park, or campground due to the lack of alternative adequate accommodations are also considered homeless.

Persons living in emergency or transitional shelter are also examples of homelessness.

Abandoned individuals in a hospital or awaiting foster care placement are also considered homeless.

An individual who has a primary nighttime residence that is a public or private place not designed for or ordinarily used as a regular sleeping accommodation for human beings, or migratory children (as defined in 20 U.S.C.

§ 6399) who qualify as homeless under 34 U.S.C.

§ 12473 because the children are living in circumstances described in this paragraph, are also considered to be homeless.

(See 34 U.S.C.

§§ 12291(a)(12), 12473(6).) For additional information about this program and related performance measures, including how awards contribute to the achievement of program goals and objectives, see:
