This federal Project Grant award, provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267), aims to address youth homelessness in the Sacramento, CA area. The $117,000 grant, awarded on March 11, 2025, will enable the nonprofit organization Sacramento Steps Forward to establish and operate various housing and supportive service initiatives.
The key activities to be performed under this grant include providing permanent housing, transitional housing, and supportive services to homeless youth, defined as households where no person is over the age of 24. Eligible costs cover leasing of housing or service facilities, rental assistance, supportive services, operating costs, HMIS implementation, and administrative expenses. The expected outcomes are a decrease in the number of youth experiencing homelessness, reduced length of time homeless, fewer returns to homelessness, and increased exits to permanent housing. Sacramento Steps Forward, the lead agency for Sacramento's Continuum of Care, will serve as the primary awardee and implement these initiatives in collaboration with local government agencies and service providers.
