A21 Rapid Rehousing Program

The goal of the FY 2020 Housing Assistance Grants for Victims of Human Trafficking Program is to support housing assistance for victims of all forms of human trafficking throughout the United States, as defined by the Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA) of 2000, as amended. Funding through this solicitation supports programs that provide 6 to 24 months of transitional housing with support services to victims of human trafficking who are in need of housing as a result of human trafficking. Funding will be provided over a three-year project period. A21's project will provide up to seventeen families (meaning one survivor or a survivor and his or her immediate family) within a period of thirty-six months with rapid rehousing, program-rented apartments and wrap-around services in Charlotte, North Carolina. A21 seventeen families will enter into our housing program within the thirty-six month period, and seventeen families will receive support services. A21 offers case management, language learning, mental health care, education, and employment programs for survivors. The Rapid Rehousing program will give survivors the freedom to focus on health and restoration, as well as to pursue education and employment skills they need to succeed. CA/NC
