Description: The purpose of the Department of Justice&apos;s (DOJ&apos;s) and Department of Housing and Urban Development&apos;s (HUD&apos;s) PFS Demonstration is to strengthen communities&#8217; ability to prevent and end homelessness and reduce avoidable incarceration by increasing the provision of Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH), a proven evidenced-based practice. The PFS Demonstration is an opportunity to equip communities with a new financing mechanism for funding PSH projects that will prevent returns to homelessness and reduce recidivism among the reentry population. The PFS Demonstration is also a valuable opportunity to test ways of achieving greater cost efficiency effectiveness in providing homelessness assistance while expanding communities&#8217; access to available funding for PSH.
