the WVCTSI to work with Delaware, Louisiana, Maine,
Mississippi, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Rhode Island and WV in
compiling a large granular dataset that can examine
associations of improved outcomes with various treatments.
Patient registry data is utilized by scientists to assess health
outcomes for a population. Specifically, the NIH is currently
looking at the best treatment regimens to minimize mortality
across different patient populations. The consortium will feed
into the National COVID Cohort Collaborative, the national

FEMA Public Assistance (PA) Program 9/9/2020 Direct Allocation

$1,690,000.00 The FEMA Public Assistance (PA) is a reimbursement program

declarations for COVID-19 policy was issued defining the
framework, policy details and requirements for determining the
eligibility of work and costs under the PA program. For COVID-

Relief Fund (CRF) and HUD'S Community Development Block
Grant-Coronavirus (CDBG-CV) can be used to meet the PA non-
federal share. Cost share requirements vary from agency-to-
agency and program-to-program; however, many of the
programs funded by the CARES Act and the other supplemental
appropriations do not require a non-federal share.

$60,303.00 The moderate rehabilitation program provides project-based
rental assistance for low income families. The program was
repealed in 1991 and no new projects are authorized for
development. Assistance is limited to properties previously
rehabilitated pursuant to a housing assistance payments (HAP)
contract between an owner and a Public Housing Agency
(PHA). The moderate rehabilitation (Mod Rehab) program was
designed in 1978 to be an expansion of the rental certificate
program. The rental certificate program was initially amended to
permit moderate levels of rehabilitation to upgrade and preserve
the nation's housing stock.
Although the rental certificate program stimulated maintenance
of the housing stock (with investment by owners averaging
$1500 in repairs to meet the program housing quality
standards), it was estimated that at least 2.7 million rental units
had deficiencies requiring a moderate level of upgrading;
approximately 85% of these units were in buildings of fewer
than 20 units. The Mod Rehab program was designed to
upgrade that housing stock.

Federal Reserve System, Main Street Lending Program (MSLP) 8/28/2020 Direct allocation to
Summit
Community Bank,
Inc.
$3,600,000.00 The Main Street Lending Program (MSLP) provides business
loans to help eligible small and medium-sized companies and
nonprofit organizations through the COVID-19 pandemic. The
program is designed to help credit flow to small and medium-
sized for-profit businesses and nonprofit organizations that were
in sound financial condition before the onset of the COVID-19
crisis, but now need loans to help maintain their operations until
they have recovered from, or adapted to, the impacts of the
pandemic. Loans originated under the program have several
features that will help borrowers facing challenges. The program
offers 5-year loans, with floating rates, and principal and interest
payments deferred to assist those experiencing temporary cash
flow interruptions. To support a broad set of employers, loan
size starts at $250,000 and ranges up to $300 million for some
loan types. MSLP loans are not grants and cannot be forgiven.
Interested borrowers will work with an eligible lender to
determine if they meet the program requirements as well as the
lender’s own underwriting standards. The lender will determine
approval for a loan. The Fed will participate in the lending by
purchasing a 95% interest in the loan. The lender retains 5%.
The MSLP is administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of
Boston, which has established a special purpose vehicle to
purchase loan participations from eligible lenders across the
U.S.

U.S. Department of Veterans' Affairs - Supportive Services for Veteran Families
(SSVF) Program
5/11/2020 Direct Award to
WV Community
Action Partnership
$1,118,403.00 The Supportive Services for Veterans Families (SSVF) program
has historically prioritized its efforts on rapidly rehousing literally
homeless Veterans followed by a priority to deliver
homelessness prevention services to Veteran families at
imminent risk of homelessness. With the onset of the COVID-19
public health crisis, VA modified its regulatory and policy
requirements to give SSVF grantees far broader flexibility in
delivering SSVF services. SSVF’s primary mission is to provide
services and assistance that lead to permanent housing
outcomes; however, given the public health crisis at hand and
this infusion of resources, VA is also prioritizing other types of
services that were traditionally more scarce. The following
priorities and program guidelines are in effect until further notice:
(1) Connect all Veterans to permanent housing, whenever
possible, either via SSVF or other resources (2) Maintain
enrollment for eligible Veterans so SSVF can continue to
provide assistance, and re-introduce assistance should the
Veteran family become at risk of housing loss (3) End
unsheltered homelessness for all Veterans and ensure
Veterans at risk of serious illness or death from COVD-19 are
not living in congregate shelter or transitional housing settings.
Veterans should not be in settings where the risk of contracting
COVID-19 are high or otherwise more likely than in the general
population. (4) Prevent homelessness for those Veterans at risk U.S. Department of Veterans' Affairs - Grant Per Diem (GPD) and Per Diem Only

Programs to fund community agencies providing services to
homeless Veterans. The purpose is to promote the
development and provision of supportive housing and/or
supportive services with the goal of helping homeless Veterans
achieve residential stability, increase their skill levels and/or
income, and obtain greater self-determination. The CARES Act
allocated additional funding to VA in support of COVID-19
efforts. One provision of this legislation
was the ability for the Secretary to temporarily waive the cap on
per diem payments to eligible entities in response to the current
public health emergency. VA’s Grant and Per Diem (GPD)
Program is temporarily removing the existing cap on per diem
rates for Per Diem Only (PDO) grant awards.

Telework Funding:
$23,222.50
$182,987.50 Legal Services Corporation (LSC) is an independent nonprofit
established by Congress in 1974 to provide financial support for
civil legal aid to low-income Americans. The Corporation
currently provides funding to 132 independent nonprofit legal aid
programs in every state, the District of Columbia, and U.S.
territories. In the CARES Act, Congress appropriated $50 million
in supplemental funding to the LSC for legal aid work to prevent,
prepare for, and respond to coronavirus, domestically or
internationally. The funding will support LSC grantees in
assisting low-income clients facing job losses, evictions,
domestic violence and other problems stemming from the
pandemic. LSC awarded $2.4 million for Telework Capacity
Grants to 126 of its grantees. This funding will support new
equipment, services and related expenses needed for legal
services organizations to improve or expand telework
capabilities to better serve low-income populations. LSC is also
providing technical assistance to many grantees to enhance
their ability to work and provide services remotely. LSC awarded
more than $47 million to its grantees to address the critical civil
legal needs confronting many low-income families. In order to
allocate these funds to the areas of the country most affected by
COVID-19, LSC used unemployment insurance data in
conjunction with the poverty-population data to distribute funds
to all 132 grantees. STATE AWARD & ALLOCATION TOTAL: $1,902,780,716.00 $15,995,000.00
