DISCUSSION
The Homeless Housing, Assistance and Prevention Program (HHAP) was signed into law
on July 31, 2019 by Governor Newsom. HHAP Round 1 was a $650 million grant that
provided local jurisdictions with funds to support regional coordination and expand or
develop local capacity to address their immediate homelessness challenges. The City of
Santa Ana was awarded $8,422,162.84. The lion share of these funds were used for the
tenant improvements at the Homeless Navigation Center.
HHAP Round 2 was a $300 million grant that supported previous funding to respond to
homelessness. The City of Santa Ana was awarded $3,981,386. Similar to Round 1
funds, the lion share of funds were used for tenant improvements at the Homeless
Navigation Center.
HHAP Round 3 is a $1 billion block grant that supports both HHAP Round 1 and Round
2 funding. The City of Santa Ana has received an initial disbursement of $2,058,070.34
from this grant award. To receive the remaining portion of the grant award, totaling
$8,232,281, the State of California requires that an application be submitted by June 30,
2022. This application will be placed on the June 7, 2022 City Council meeting agenda.
The initial disbursement of the HHAP Round 3 grant award is anticipated to be needed
