This Project Grant award, provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267), supports the efforts of First Light Inc., a non-profit organization and domestic shelter in Birmingham, Alabama, to address homelessness in their local community.
The $155,461 award, effective March 11, 2025, will enable First Light Inc. to provide a range of eligible services under the Continuum of Care Program, including permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, and homeless management information systems. These comprehensive services are designed to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families, minimize trauma, and promote self-sufficiency. First Light Inc. has been a consistent recipient of Continuum of Care Program grants from HUD, totaling over $3M between 2020-2024, and has also served as a sub-awardee on grants awarded to the City of Birmingham and Jefferson County to provide shelter and services to homeless individuals and children, with a particular emphasis on serving the mentally ill.
