The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded the Connecticut Department of Housing (DOH) a $416,180 Continuum of Care Program grant on December 1, 2023. This federal Project Grant will support DOH's efforts to address homelessness across the state through a range of housing assistance and supportive services. The funding will allow DOH to provide rapid rehousing, homelessness prevention, permanent supportive housing, transitional housing, and wraparound case management, mental health, and job training services aimed at quickly rehousing individuals and families experiencing homelessness while promoting self-sufficiency. As the state's lead housing agency, DOH will utilize this HUD grant to coordinate a community-wide strategy and collaborate with nonprofit service providers, local governments, and public housing authorities to minimize trauma and optimize access to mainstream resources for those facing homelessness in Connecticut.
