It's Not Too Late to Apply for HUD's Family Unification Program


The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has given public housing authorities nationwide until December 1, 2010 to apply for Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers through the Family Unification Program (FUP).

  • FUP vouchers can be used to help foster youth with their housing needs in transitioning from foster care to adulthood.
  • For FUP vouchers to be successful, and for youth to actually receive this assistance, child welfare organizations must build a strong partnership with their local housing authorities.
Learn more at the National Center for Housing and Child Welfare.
