Project Grant CT0361H1E052501

The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development awarded $1,180,012 to Mental Health & Addiction Services Connecticut on August 1, 2026, under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267). The award funds homelessness prevention and housing assistance activities performed in Hartford, Connecticut, with a period of performance through July 31, 2027.

The Continuum of Care Program is designed to promote community-wide commitment to ending homelessness and to provide funding for efforts by nonprofit providers, states, and local governments to quickly house homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and dislocation, promote access to mainstream programs, and optimize self-sufficiency. Eligible activities include permanent supportive housing and rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services only, homeless management information systems, and homelessness prevention. Mental Health & Addiction Services Connecticut, a state government entity within the Connecticut Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services, serves as the prime recipient and administers Continuum of Care funding on a pass-through basis to sub-recipients including local treatment clinics, residential facilities, shelters, and housing programs throughout Connecticut.
