Project Grant CA1789D9D002305

This federal Project Grant award, totaling $4,793,848.00, was provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267). The award was granted to the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA), a U.S. local government entity, to support a range of housing and supportive services for individuals and families experiencing homelessness in the greater Los Angeles area.

The funding will enable LAHSA, as the lead agency for the Los Angeles CoC, to coordinate federal, state, county, and city resources to develop and implement comprehensive strategies aimed at reducing and preventing homelessness. Key activities supported by this grant include permanent housing, transitional housing, rapid rehousing, emergency shelter, homelessness prevention, and supportive services. LAHSA operates as both a direct service provider and a pass-through entity, distributing funds to local nonprofit homeless services providers and government agencies for initiatives such as interim housing unit operations, rehabilitation projects, shared housing, outreach services, and wrap-around support costs. The overarching goals are to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families, minimize trauma, and promote self-sufficiency through community-based approaches to addressing homelessness.
