The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) on Wednesday announced that it will provide several housing assistance grants to help low-income families living with HIV/AIDS, the Boston Globe reports (7/23). “A record $310 million will assist 58,000 U.S. households annually, officials said,” KITV.com reports.
