SUMMARY & BACKGROUND
ESG grant funds are used for street outreach, emergency shelter, homelessness prevention, rapid rehousing assistance, Homeless Management Information System (HMIS), and Fulton County administrative activities.
The original contract award of $33,286 was approved at the November 4, 2020 (#20-0779) Board of Commissioners meeting.
