Cities, counties, and states can apply for the HPRP grants. Each grant has a maximum value of $500,000, and must be used within three years. Organizations using HPRP funds must be able to assess participant and family needs, provide services which help to keep the participants in their homes, and then report appropriate participant service and demographic information to the US Department of Housing and Urban development.

Funds can be used in assisting domestic violence victims who meet the specified criteria. However, HUD requires that domestic violence data should be stored in a separate data management system from the HMIS in order to maintain client confidentiality.
