Today is the deadline for applications for Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) funding for projects to create and implement solutions to youth homelessness.

“Every American should grow up in a safe and loving home. HUD is pleased to announce this funding opportunity as we focus on partnering with communities to provide stability, resources, and healing to vulnerable youth,“ said HUD Secretary Scott Turner. “The Trump administration is committed to supporting youth with housing resources to help them reunite with family or gain independence to pursue the American Dream.”

Today is also the expiration of Temporary Protected Status for South Sudanese nationals in the United States. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) extended the deadline to give lower courts time to align with the Supreme Court’s June ruling in Mullin v. Doe, which upheld the federal agency’s authority to terminate TPS.

As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…

• For Secretary Turner to be prudent in his management of the Department of Housing and Urban Development and its investments in solutions to youth homelessness.
• For President Trump and members of his administration as they seek to support vulnerable youth.
• For Secretary Mullin and DHS officials as they work to enforce federal immigration laws.
