From Times Staff Reports
Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa announced the revival of a program Monday to give homeless people federal vouchers that would pay most of the rent for apartments.
Villaraigosa said the program -- which existed until 2004, when it encountered financial problems -- could provide housing for more than 2,000 homeless.
About 300 of the 2,136 vouchers will be used to help homeless living on skid row move away from that part of town.
