Grant Tip - Choosing your words: In grant writing, every word counts (and not just because of word count). Do you know the difference between when to use e.g. and i.e.? e.g. is used before a specific example and i.e. typically means "in place of" or "in other words."

Grant Spotlight - In 2021, HUD launched the Eviction Protection Grant Program (EPGP), a first-of-its-kind federal program designed to expand the reach of legal services to low-income tenants at risk of, or subject to, eviction. Millions of families face eviction each year, whether through formal court processes or through extra-legal evictions. Evicted tenants, especially children, face significant long-term consequences. Yet, most tenants do not have access to legal assistance that may help them reach more mutually beneficial resolutions with landlords or defend against illegal evictions. The Eviction Protection Grant Program aims to help fill this gap. With the infusion of a second round of funding in Fiscal Year 2022, HUD currently funds a total of 21 EPGP grantees providing no-cost legal assistance to prevent or divert eviction and mitigate the consequences of eviction across 19 states. Through this demonstration program, PD&R seeks to expand the evidence base around eviction diversion programming as local, state, and federal policymakers consider new ways to support tenants and landlords and build new eviction systems and processes.
