This federal Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) provides $491,328 to the Department of Homelessness & Supportive Housing in San Francisco, CA to deliver a range of housing assistance and supportive services aimed at quickly rehousing homeless individuals and families.
The eligible activities under this grant include permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention. The funding will enable the Department of Homelessness & Supportive Housing to provide services such as housing placement, job training, mental health and substance abuse treatment, and other programs to help homeless individuals and families achieve self-sufficiency. The award is intended to decrease the number of people experiencing homelessness by reducing the length of time they are homeless, preventing returns to homelessness, and facilitating exits to permanent housing.
