Benton County surpasses goal, rehouses 54 households

Read the full news article in English and Spanish

54 households in Benton County have moved from homelessness into housing over the past year as a result of collaborative efforts from Benton County’s Flexible Housing Subsidy Pool (FHSP) Program. These households include 69 adults and 53 children for a total of 122 people who have transitioned from homelessness into stable housing since the program’s inception in July 2024.

Funding for the FHSP came from the state following Governor Tina Kotek’s 2023 emergency declaration on homelessness. Along with the funding came a goal for Benton County to achieve long-term housing stability for 51 households by June 30, 2025.
