Notice of Funding Opportunity blocks harm reduction funding in housing, affecting drug users' support.

Abstract

In what began with an Executive Order issued by President Trump on July 24, 2025, last week's Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) (a grant announcement) from the Department of Housing and Urban Development specifically states that the $4 billion in federal housing grants not be used to support harm reduction in housing, effectively blocking drug users from supportive housing.
