Lets communities use federal grants to offer safe overnight parking and support for people living in their cars.
This bill would allow local programs to use existing federal money to create safe parking spots for people who live in their vehicles. This means homeless individuals and families living in cars or RVs could get a secure place to park overnight. These safe parking sites would also connect them with services to help them find stable housing.
Today, federal emergency grants cannot explicitly be used to fund safe parking programs for people living in vehicles. If this bill becomes law, communities would be able to use these grants to create and run safe overnight parking facilities that also offer services to help people find stable housing.
