Assist in the prevention of homelessness. 2. Assist in supporting the essential operating costs of shelters. 3. Assist in improving the quality of supportive services to the homeless. Projects will not require participation in religious services, as a condition for receiving assistance. All projects funded will develop and administer, in good faith, a policy designed to ensure the shelter is free from the illegal use, possession or distribution of DRUGS and ALCOHOL by its beneficiaries. Political activities will be prohibited in accordance with subsection 675 (e) of the Community Services Block Grant Act of 1981. The town, city, county or nonprofit organization certifies that matching supplemental funds required by the regulations at 24 CFR 576.71 and 576.85(a)(3), as mentioned by the amendments to Items 415(a) and 415(c) of the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act made by Section 832(e) of the Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act of 1990 (Public Law 101-625, November 28, 1990) will be provided. The amendment exempts the first $100,000 from the matching requirement and requires that the benefit of the $100,000 exemption be provided to those recipients from the State that are least capable of providing the matching funds.
