The Division of Housing (DOH) allocates Homelessness Resolution Program (HRP) funding annually through a competitive application process. HRP supports individuals and families experiencing or at risk of homelessness in achieving housing stability and moving toward permanent housing.
HRP also includes targeted funding for Youth Housing Stability (YHS), Youth Homelessness Demonstration Program (YHDP), and supportive services for Formerly Incarcerated People (FIP), providing tailored assistance to priority populations.

Funding supports a range of housing-focused interventions, including homelessness prevention, rapid rehousing, emergency shelter, street outreach, and youth-specific housing models.

Funding is supported through a combination of federal and state resources.

History

The Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) Program was initially established by the Homeless Housing Act of 1986 in response to the increasing issue of homelessness in the United States. It was later authorized by Subtitle B of Title IV of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act in 1987 (42 U.S.C. 11371-11378). In 2009, under the Homeless Emergency Assistance and Rapid Transition to Housing (HEARTH) Act, the program was renamed to the Emergency Solutions Grant.

The Division of Housing (DOH), Office of Homeless Initiatives (OHI) has been a recipient of ESG funds, distributing these funds to eligible organizations and local governments throughout Colorado. Over time, the program has expanded to include additional state funding sources, leading to a rebranding of the program.

In 2024, DOH's ESG Program was renamed the Homelessness Resolution Program (HRP) to more accurately reflect its broadened scope, incorporating multiple funding sources. The program will continue to support Colorado’s efforts to address homelessness through grants for street outreach, emergency shelters, homelessness prevention, rapid rehousing, administrative activities, and data collection through Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) or the DOH comparable system for Victim Service Providers (VSPs).

In 2025, DOH began integrating the former Colorado Rapid Rehousing for Re-entry (COR3) program into the Homelessness Resolution Program (HRP) through the HRP Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) process by establishing a set-aside for Formerly Incarcerated People (FIP). This transition aligns the work previously carried out under COR3 with HRP’s broader goal of supporting households experiencing homelessness through housing stability interventions. The FIP set-aside prioritizes individuals with justice involvement who face significant barriers to securing housing and connects participants to Rapid Re-Housing assistance and supportive services designed to promote long-term housing stability and reduce recidivism.

DOH has also expanded youth-focused initiatives under the Office of Homeless Youth Services. These previously included the state-funded Next Step 2 Gen (NS2G) and Youth Housing Program (YHP). As of April 2026, these programs have been consolidated into the Youth Housing Stability (YHS) Program to streamline youth housing assistance and align services statewide. In addition, the federally funded Youth Homelessness Demonstration Program (YHDP) continues to support youth and young adults ages 18–24, as well as families across Colorado, through rapid rehousing, homelessness prevention, and transitional housing services.

This evolution marks a continued commitment to addressing homelessness in Colorado with a more comprehensive approach.

These policies and procedures apply to all Subrecipients. Subrecipients include eligible units of local government and/or non-profit organizations that are awarded funding and administer the HRP components outlined below. DOH can obligate funds per Title 24 Code of Federal Regulations Part 576 (24 CFR 576).

Program Objectives

HRP aims to prevent and resolve homelessness by connecting individuals and families experiencing or at risk of homelessness to appropriate housing and services as quickly as possible, with minimal barriers.

Increase access to and availability of safe, stable, and permanent housing options.
Operate emergency shelter facilities that are low-barrier, housing-focused, and designed to support rapid exits to permanent housing.
Provide essential services to individuals and families living outdoors, in emergency shelter, or at risk of homelessness, including those receiving rental assistance.
Support coordinated, housing-focused interventions that improve system-wide outcomes for priority populations, including youth and formerly incarcerated individuals.
