Federal Grant Award Summary

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development, awarded County of Riverside Housing and Workforce Solutions Division $158,125 under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) for the period May 1, 2026 through April 30, 2027. This Project Grant funds eligible activities designed to prevent and end homelessness within Riverside County through the establishment and operation of CoC projects. Permissible activities under this award include permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services, Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS) operations, CoC planning activities, and fiscal control and accounting functions through a Unified Funding Agency.

The County of Riverside, as a prime recipient, delivers these services directly and through sub-awards to nonprofit partner organizations to establish a coordinated system of housing and homelessness services. The funding supports eligible costs associated with housing provision and supportive services infrastructure, including project planning, administration, and operational expenses necessary to quickly house homeless individuals and families while promoting access to mainstream programs and optimizing self-sufficiency among persons and families experiencing homelessness.
