Allows such assistance to be in the form of: (1) a grant for costs of planning a supportive housing project; (2) a capital advance for such project; and (3) project rental assistance.

Requires the Secretary to coordinate with the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to ensure that any housing assistance provided to veterans or veteran families includes a range of services tailored to the needs of very low-income veteran families.

Requires HUD periodically to establish development cost limitations by market area for various types and sizes of such supportive housing.

Establishes a special housing account.

Requires the owner of such supportive housing to adopt HUD-approved tenant selection procedures.
