Grandfamily Housing Act of 2023
The Grandfamily Housing Act of 2023 establishes a federal grant program for owners of intergenerational housing units - homes where grandparents or other relatives live with grandchildren. Grants cover costs for service coordinators to provide onsite support (like tutoring, healthcare, and after-school care), community outreach, and property modifications to support these families. The program requires coordination with local kinship navigator programs and mandates a report to Congress on the program's effectiveness within two years. It directly affects property owners in qualifying intergenerational housing units and aims to strengthen support services for these families through HUD-administered grants.
