HOME-ARP shift to smaller non-congregate shelters

Milwaukee

Summary

After the Heartland Housing failure and losing hotel options post-pandemic, the city is pivoting to smaller non-congregate shelters — private rooms with bathrooms — that fit neighborhoods and don't risk 60 units at once. Milwaukee County's Hillview project gets $1.4 million.
