Michigan receives $600,000 from HUD to combat youth homelessness in foster care transition.

Michigan has received nearly $600,000 from HUD to combat youth homelessness, particularly for those transitioning from foster care.

This initiative is part of a broader $15 million federal effort to support vulnerable youth, as nearly one-third of Michigan teens leaving foster care face homelessness before age 21.
