New Hampshire Congressional Delegation Announces More than $14 Million to Help Local Organizations Combat Homelessness


(Washington, D.C.) – U.S. Representatives Maggie Goodlander (NH-02) and Chris Pappas (NH-01), alongside Senators Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) and Maggie Hassan (D-NH), are welcoming $14,110,558 in federal grants for New Hampshire organizations that provide housing assistance and supportive services for people experiencing homelessness. This funding comes through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Continuum of Care (CoC) Program and the Youth Homeless Demonstration Program (YHDP), which work with nonprofits, states and local governments to quickly rehouse homeless individuals, families and youth, as well as individuals fleeing domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault and stalking.

“Having a home is a cornerstone of the American Dream but across New Hampshire, lack of access to safe, reliable housing has put that dream out of reach for far too many Granite Staters,” said Representative Goodlander. “I’m proud to help announce these federal resources heading to our state to address our housing crisis and support the important work of extraordinary organizations across New Hampshire.”

“Every Granite Stater deserves a roof over their head, and that requires federal funding working hand in hand with communities to get resources where they’re needed most,” said Senator Shaheen. “I’m glad to see this funding coming to organizations in our state that work to house Granite Staters and provide critical supportive services.”


“Granite Staters who are homeless – including those fleeing heartbreaking circumstances like domestic violence – should know that there are resources to help,” said Senator Hassan. “I am pleased to see more than $14 million in federal funding heading to New Hampshire to provide safe temporary and permanent housing for Granite Staters in need, and help people build more stable futures.”

“Far too many Granite Staters continue to experience homelessness or a lack of safe shelter. Our state and local governments, nonprofits, and community partners are on the frontlines of this crisis, and this federal funding will provide them with resources to support families and individuals experiencing homelessness,” said Congressman Pappas. “Housing is fundamental to one’s health and wellbeing, and more work must be done to grow our housing supply, expand mental health resources, and help people find safe and affordable housing.”

The New Hampshire Congressional delegation is committed to ensuring Granite State communities have the resources needed to tackle the housing affordability crisis. Last year, Senators Shaheen and Hassan and Representative Pappas celebrated more than $30 million in federal grants for New Hampshire to build more affordable housing across the Granite State.

As a senior member of the U.S. Senate Appropriations Committee and Chair of the Commerce, Justice, Science Appropriations Subcommittee, Shaheen worked to include key provisions from her Strategy and Investment in Rural Housing Preservation Act in the Fiscal Year 2024 Agriculture and Related Agencies Appropriations Act. Shaheen’s standalone legislation would ensure that hundreds of thousands of low-income tenants in rural areas are able to maintain access to safe and affordable housing. Another Shaheen-led bipartisan bill to increase access to rural housing was signed into law the same day. Together, the two bills will bolster existing rural housing options, make new construction easier and protect renters across the Granite State.

Shaheen also helped introduced the Fighting Homelessness Through Services and Housing Act to help local governments reduce homelessness as well as a bicameral bill that would protect the rights of residents of manufactured housing communities. Shaheen secured over $22 million in Congressionally Directed Spending in the FY24 government funding bills to address New Hampshire’s housing, transportation and urban development needs.
