This federal Project Grant award, provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267), is designed to support community-based efforts to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and promoting self-sufficiency. The $5,636,939 award, made on March 11, 2025, will enable the Orange County Housing Authority (OCHA) to fund a range of eligible activities, including permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention. As a key recipient of HUD CoC grants, OCHA will leverage this funding to coordinate housing resources and services within the Santa Ana, California region, working with nonprofit providers, local governments, and public housing agencies to implement strategies that address homelessness. The specific sub-award activities are unknown at this time, but the funding is expected to contribute to decreasing the number of individuals and families experiencing homelessness by reducing the length of time homeless, returns to homelessness, and increasing exits to permanent housing.
