Continuum of care program

The County of Butte, California received a $144,080 Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development. The funding will support the county's efforts to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families, minimizing the trauma of homelessness, and promote self-sufficiency and access to mainstream resources for this population. Eligible activities under the Continuum of Care Program include permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention. As a local government entity, the County of Butte will utilize this federal grant award to deliver a range of critical social services and housing assistance to address homelessness in the Oroville, California community.
