Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act Second Allocation
The ESG CARES Second Allocation Programming Plan was approved by the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs Governing Board on October 8, 2020. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development has accepted the plan amendments for ESG CARES second allocation.

ESG CARES Second Allocation funds are allocated by each Continuum of Care (CoC) region. ESG CARES Applicants need to determine in which CoC region they belong so they will know whom to contact to apply for funding.

TDHCA has selected nine ESG CARES Coordinators for the ESG CARES second allocation, as listed in the table below. ESG Applicants in those CoC regions should contact the ESG CARES Coordinators for an ESG CARES Second Allocation Application. For areas without ESG CARES Coordinators, TDHCA will reach out to the CoC awardees with an offer of ESG CARES Second Allocation funding. Each CoC region is listed below and the regional allocation amounts may be subject to change.
