The grant will allow Sacramento Steps Forward to provide a range of housing assistance and supportive services, including rapid rehousing, homelessness prevention, emergency shelter operations, transitional housing, and permanent supportive housing solutions. Additionally, the funding will enable the organization to implement Homeless Management Information Systems, conduct outreach to homeless populations, and offer case management, job training, and mental health/substance abuse treatment services. This Continuum of Care Program grant is part of HUD's community-wide strategy to address homelessness by supporting collaborative efforts among nonprofit providers, state and local governments, and public housing agencies.
