In
1987, the Stewart McKinney Homeless Assistance Act was enacted
providing federal assistance to the homeless through several programs.
The Emergency Shelter Grant Program (ESG) was the first of the
programs funded and as a CDBG entitlement city, Stockton receives
a formula allocation of ESG funds each year. These funds may
be used for the rehabilitation or conversion of buildings for
use as emergency shelters for the homeless, for the payment
of eligible operating and social service expenses in connection
with emergency shelter for the homeless and for homeless prevention
activities.
