This federal Project Grant award of $555,697 was provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267). The grant funds will enable The Open Door Network, a non-profit organization in Bakersfield, California, to deliver a range of housing assistance and supportive services to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while minimizing the trauma caused by homelessness.
Key services to be provided include emergency shelter, transitional housing, rapid rehousing, homelessness prevention, case management, housing counseling, rental assistance, job training, and mental health/substance abuse treatment. The Open Door Network will leverage this funding to provide comprehensive housing and support services across the Bakersfield area, with the goal of decreasing the number of individuals and families experiencing homelessness through performance indicators such as reduced length of homelessness, fewer returns to homelessness, and increased exits to permanent housing.
