LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) — A Louisville initiative focused on helping people experiencing chronic homelessness move into permanent housing received a $500,000 grant.

Mayor Craig Greenberg announced Monday that the CommonSpirit — Legacy Foundation of Kentuckiana awarded the grant to Home for Good. The money will support the initiative through December 2027.

Home for Good was launched by Louisville Metro Government, the Coalition for the Homeless and other community housing partners. Its goal is to provide permanent supportive housing to at least 250 people experiencing chronic homelessness by 2027.

"Home for Good is bringing together public, private and philanthropic partners to help our neighbors experiencing chronic homelessness find stable housing and the support services they need to thrive," Greenberg said in a news release.

Permanent supportive housing provides residents with a safe and affordable place to live while connecting them with services such as health care, job training, social workers and other resources intended to help them achieve long-term stability.

The grant follows other philanthropic investments made in Home for Good as the initiative works to expand permanent supportive housing opportunities across Louisville.

City officials said permanent supportive housing is part of Greenberg's broader strategy to reduce chronic homelessness in Louisville. Residents can follow the initiative's progress through the Home for Good website and public dashboard.
