Twenty-four grantees offered the RExO program, including national nonprofits, faith-based community organizations, community health organizations, and local or regional nonprofits. The exact bundle of services each grantee provided varied significantly. In all programs, case managers coordinated service delivery and supported participants. Most grantees offered group mentoring for participants, and a smaller subset offered individual mentoring.

SUB provided permanent assistance with housing rental costs through state or local public housing agencies. As long as families had at least one child age 15 or younger, met low-income criteria, had no drug-related convictions, and paid rent on time, they could continue to receive a housing subsidy indefinitely. Housing subsidies were typically provided as a housing choice voucher, which participants could use to rent housing that met the U.S.

CBRR provided families with immediate temporary housing and rental assistance. Most families also received services while in temporary housing, which helped them search for permanent housing. These services included assistance with upfront moving costs, limited case management, and housing search assistance and placement. Families were eligible for CBRR for up to 18 months, but most received 7 to 8 months of assistance. Families were eligible for CBRR if they had spent a week or longer in an emergency homeless shelter and had a child age 15 or younger.

Between 1994 and 1998, MTO offered housing vouchers to families with low incomes who lived in public housing or private assisted housing projects in high-poverty neighborhoods and who had at least one child younger than 18. Private assisted housing projects are rental housing built by private owners through federal programs that required them to price some units to be affordable to people with low incomes. The vouchers subsidized the cost of renting private housing in low-poverty neighborhoods.
