Continuum of care program

This federal Project Grant award of $243,128, provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267), will support the State of Connecticut Department of Housing (DOH) in delivering a range of housing and supportive services to address homelessness in the Hartford, CT area.

The funding will enable DOH to implement projects that include developing and rehabilitating affordable rental housing, providing tenant-based rental assistance, operating emergency shelters and transitional housing, delivering rapid re-housing and homelessness prevention services, and offering supportive services for populations with special needs such as individuals with disabilities, HIV/AIDS patients, and youth experiencing homelessness. DOH frequently partners with nonprofit service providers, local governments, and other state agencies to administer these federally-funded initiatives.
