Grants can only fund approved activities that prevent homelessness for people with AIDS. Covered activities include housing information, shelters, rental help, SRO housing, and community homes.

Grants under this chapter can only pay for approved strategies to prevent homelessness among eligible persons. Approved activities include ones that: let public and nonprofit groups provide housing information and coordinate to expand housing resources, under section 12906; help build and run shelters and services, under section 12907; provide rental assistance, under section 12908; help (through project-based rental assistance or other means) fix up single room occupancy (SRO) dwellings reserved for eligible persons, under section 12909; help develop community residences, under section 12910; and other activities the Secretary develops with eligible states and localities — though these can only be paid for with the money set aside under section 12903(c)(3). The Secretary sets standards and guidelines for approved activities, but must let grantees adjust them for individual projects when local circumstances require it.
