HUD suspends federal funding to Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority citing fraud and mismanagement.
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development halted federal funding to the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) pending an investigation. HUD cited "obvious fraud," "wanton mismanagement," conflicts of interest, and lack of oversight in a letter to the agency. LAHSA received nearly $1 billion in federal funds since 2021, and Los Angeles County had previously moved to strip its own funding from the agency.
