The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development awarded Mercy Housing California a $189,508 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program grant under CFDA 14.267. The funding supports Mercy Housing California's efforts to provide comprehensive housing and supportive services to homeless and low-income populations in Denver, Colorado. The award period is from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025. The grant funds will be used to establish and operate permanent housing, transitional housing, and supportive services initiatives, including rental assistance, housing operations, case management, mental health and substance abuse treatment, and community engagement programs. The Continuum of Care Program aims to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families, minimize trauma, promote access to mainstream resources, and optimize self-sufficiency.
