The award supports the organization's efforts to address homelessness in the Hartford, Connecticut area through eligible CoC activities designed to promote community-wide commitment to ending homelessness and quickly rehousing homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and dislocation.

Under this award, Community Renewal Team, Inc. may utilize funding for one or more of five CoC program components: permanent housing (including permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities and rapid rehousing); transitional housing; supportive services only; Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS); and homelessness prevention activities. Eligible cost categories include CoC planning, fiscal control and accounting, real property acquisition and rehabilitation, new construction, rental assistance, case management, and operating costs. As a community action agency with extensive experience administering HUD and Department of Veterans Affairs grants, the organization leverages this award to deliver critical housing stability and support services to very low-income and homeless populations, including veterans and families at risk of homelessness.
