The Department of Housing and Urban Development awarded Alaska Coalition On Housing & Homelessness $227,000 on August 1, 2026, under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267), a Project Grant addressing unsheltered and rural homelessness through a Special Notice of Funding Opportunity.

Funding supports eligible activities including permanent supportive housing, rapid re-housing, transitional housing, supportive services only, coordinated entry, street outreach, and homeless management information systems. For projects awarded under the rural set-aside, eligible costs also include up to six months of rent or utility arrears after two months of nonpayment; short-term emergency lodging in motels or shelters via direct funding or vouchers; repairs up to $10,000 per structure necessary to make housing habitable for transitional or permanent housing use; emergency food and clothing assistance; costs for accessing federal inventory property programs to house individuals and families experiencing homelessness; and capacity building activities.

Performance occurs in Juneau, Alaska, with a period of performance from August 1, 2026 through July 31, 2027. The Continuum of Care Program is designed to promote community-wide commitment to ending homelessness and to provide funding for nonprofit providers, states, and local governments to quickly house homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and dislocation, promoting access to mainstream programs, and optimizing self-sufficiency.
