    The Youth Homeless Demonstration Program (YHDP) for Fiscal Year 2024, managed by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), aims to allocate $72 million to support communities in addressing youth homelessness effectively. Between 12 to 25 communities, especially prioritizing those with substantial rural populations, will be selected to establish comprehensive approaches that significantly reduce youth homelessness, specifically targeting youth aged 24 and under, including unaccompanied and parenting youth. Applicants must be designated Collaborative Applicants within their Continuum of Care (CoC) and adhere to stringent eligibility criteria including leveraging cost-sharing resources. The application process includes submitting a Coordinated Community Plan (CCP) and a Continuous Quality Improvement Plan (CQIP) to evaluate the effectiveness of funded initiatives in addressing homelessness challenges. The review process allocates points based on various factors, such as community need, collaboration with youth services, and data capacity, influencing the selection and funding priorities. Successful implementation of the YHDP is expected to foster equity and improve outcomes for marginalized youth populations by integrating youth voices in the planning process and ensuring all project activities align with established civil rights and fair housing laws.
