This federal Project Grant award of $283,204 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) is intended to support Pima County Community Services in implementing a range of activities to address homelessness in the Tucson, Arizona area. The CoC Program is designed to promote community-wide strategies to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families, while minimizing trauma and promoting self-sufficiency.
Through this award, Pima County Community Services will provide eligible CoC Program activities, which may include permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention. The specific subrecipient activities are not yet known at the time of the award. This grant is expected to contribute to decreasing the number of individuals and families experiencing homelessness in the region, as measured by performance indicators such as length of time homeless, returns to homelessness, and exits to permanent housing.
