Naomi Schwartz and Susan Rose Safe Parking Act of 2024

This bill amends the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act to allow federal funding through the Emergency Solutions Grant Program to cover "safe parking" initiatives. It defines "safe parking" as providing homeless individuals living in vehicles (including RVs) with overnight parking alongside re-housing and supportive services to transition to stable housing. The key change makes safe parking programs eligible for federal grant funding that previously did not cover this specific activity. This directly affects homeless individuals residing in vehicles and the service providers operating these programs.
