Project Grant CA1974L9T032201

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $300,000 Continuum of Care Program grant (CFDA 14.267) to Sacramento Steps Forward, a nonprofit organization in Sacramento, California. This Project Grant, awarded on December 1, 2023, will fund the organization's efforts to address homelessness through a range of housing assistance and supportive services. The grant supports Sacramento Steps Forward's work in rapid rehousing, homelessness prevention, permanent supportive housing, transitional housing, and the provision of case management, mental health/substance abuse treatment, and job training services. The funding will enable the organization to implement a community-wide strategy to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and promoting self-sufficiency. Sacramento Steps Forward has also received additional HUD funding through the Youth Homelessness Demonstration Program to develop and implement coordinated approaches to preventing and ending youth homelessness in the Sacramento area.
