Houston’s new homeless ‘Super Hub’ branded as national model for ‘self-sufficiency’
Mayor Whitmire and federal HUD officials finalized a $314 million investment today to launch a "Super Hub" in the Second Ward, a low-barrier facility designed to transition 1,000 homeless individuals into self-sufficiency annually. The project moves away from traditional "Housing First" models by prioritizing 24/7 security and "wraparound" services, while also using $100 million of the grant to install industrial backup power for citywide storm resilience. However, the plan faces pushback from advocates like Texas Housers, who argue that "reprogramming" $41 million in disaster funds for the hub diverts critical resources away from repairing the homes of low-income seniors.
