Federal Grant Award Summary

The Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development awarded $2,856,416 to the Department of Homelessness & Supportive Housing in San Francisco through the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) on April 1, 2026, with a completion date of March 31, 2027. This Project Grant funds the establishment and operation of five core program components designed to address homelessness: permanent supportive housing and rapid rehousing for persons with disabilities; transitional housing; supportive services only; Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS); and homelessness prevention activities.

Under this award, the Department of Homelessness & Supportive Housing delivers critical services including case management, rental assistance, job training, mental health and substance abuse treatment, and case coordination for individuals and families experiencing homelessness in San Francisco. The funding supports both capital costs—such as acquisition, rehabilitation, and new construction of housing facilities—and operational expenses necessary to quickly rehouse homeless populations while minimizing trauma and dislocation. The award enables the department to provide comprehensive community-based solutions that promote access to mainstream programs and support long-term self-sufficiency among vulnerable populations.
