The goals of the DSHS HOPWA Program are to help low-income persons living with HIV and their households establish or maintain affordable and stable housing, reduce their risk of homelessness, and improve their access to health care and supportive services. HOPWA Project Sponsors can visit the DSHS HOPWA Program page for information and resource materials applicable to the activities they are carrying out.
The service categories below are funded through annual formula grants to the State from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). They may not reflect services funded through other Ryan White Program Parts, direct HOPWA, or other funding sources. Certain services listed in Section 2 and all services listed in Section 3 are funded only through DSHS State Service funds.
Each service at the subcategory level will allow entry of a total cost amount that is the result of the agency’s unit cost calculation outside the data management system Take Charge Texas (TCT).
