With the help of a $383,000 grant, Pulaski County officials hope to expand access to housing for people with AIDS and HIV.
Through three different types of housing assistance, the award will stabilize home environments, which are key to better health outcomes, said Pulaski County Community Services Director Fredrick Love.
"If you're struggling ... with paying your mortgage and paying for your medicine, this grant can assist you," said Love, who is also a state legislator. "The basic premise of this grant is to ensure that people are being brought into care."
The grant was awarded by a City of Little Rock department and is funded through Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS, a $300 million-plus program under the U.S.
