Title V Program Overview

Title V of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act, Public Law 101-645 (42 U.S.C 11411), provides surplus Federal property for use by eligible homeless service providers.

Properties, including buildings and land, are made available on an ‘as-is’ basis as no funding is available under Title V. Leases are provided on a no-cost basis and range from one to 20 years, depending upon the availability.

Eligible applicants include

  • State and local governments, and
  • 501(c) (3) nonprofit organizations providing homeless services

Successful applicants may use the Title V property to provide:

  • Shelter,
  • Services,
  • Job training,
  • Meals,
  • Counseling, and
  • Other services that benefit for persons experiencing homelessness.
