The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $3,247,950 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program grant (CFDA 14.267) to the State of Connecticut Department of Housing (DOH) for the period of July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025. The CoC Program provides funding to support a range of housing and supportive services for individuals and families experiencing homelessness. Under this award, DOH will 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.
