Federal Grant Award Summary

The County of Broward received a $1.85 million Project Grant award from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) for the period July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The award funds activities designed to address homelessness through five primary program components: permanent supportive housing and rapid rehousing for individuals and families with disabilities; transitional housing; supportive services; Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS); and homelessness prevention initiatives. The County serves as the prime recipient and Unified Funding Agency, distributing sub-awards to local nonprofit organizations that deliver rapid rehousing services, case management, and supportive services to homeless and at-risk populations in Broward County, Florida.

The funding supports eligible activities including CoC planning and coordination, rental and operating assistance, acquisition and rehabilitation of housing structures, and direct supportive services designed to achieve housing stability and self-sufficiency among individuals and families experiencing homelessness. As the fiscal administrator, the County maintains financial control and accounting functions necessary for proper stewardship of federal funds while participating in program evaluation requirements mandated by HUD. This award represents one of multiple CoC Program grants totaling over $25 million that the County has received cumulatively, reflecting its established role as a regional service hub coordinating comprehensive homelessness intervention efforts.
