All of the $64,000 Butler County recently got for the homeless will go toward “rapid rehousing” projects.

But what exactly is rapid rehousing? And is $64,000 enough to help Butler County's most disadvantaged residents?

The money will go toward getting homeless people back into housing and paying their first few months of rent, said Amanda Feltenberger, a Butler County human services director of integrated services.
