This $184,103 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program grant awarded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (CFDA 14.267) supports the Mental Health & Addiction Services Conne, a Connecticut state government entity, in delivering a range of services to address homelessness across the state. The grant funds will be used to establish and operate projects under the CoC Program components, including permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention. The goal is to quickly house homeless individuals and families, minimize the trauma and dislocation caused by homelessness, promote access to mainstream programs, and optimize self-sufficiency among those experiencing homelessness. While the specific subrecipient activities are unknown at the time of award, the grant is expected to contribute to decreasing the number of individuals and families experiencing homelessness in Connecticut through performance indicators such as reduced length of homelessness, fewer returns to homelessness, and increased exits to permanent housing.
