Homelessness Prevention and Rapid Re-Housing
program (HPRP) operates through the
Community Resource Center of Johnson County
and is funding by the Department of Housing
and Urban Development (HUD).
Program overview:
The primary focus of this program is to
assist low-income families and/or
individuals who have not yet become homeless
but will become homeless if they do not
receive HPRP assistance. Financial
assistance is to be used for rent and/or
utility bills. The emphasis is on
identifying the most pressing needs and
using HPRP, or other sources within the
community to meet those needs. Individuals,
who qualify for HPRP, will work with the

assistance.
The primary goal of HPRP is achieve housing
stability. The primary goal of the case
worker is to work with families and/or
individuals to develop and support system

self-sufficiency.
