Expanding Service Coordinators Act

HR 5177, the Expanding Service Coordinators Act, provides new funding and requirements for service coordinators in federally assisted housing projects to help residents access supportive services. It prohibits additional conditions for projects receiving coordinator funds, mandates $2,500 annually per project for coordinator training, and allocates $225 million yearly (2024-2028) for these programs. The bill also adds $45 million annually for rural housing services, requires a study on rural coordinator challenges, and creates $37 million in HRSA grants for 150 housing properties. These provisions directly affect federally assisted housing projects, service coordinators, and residents relying on these services.
