Federal Grant Award Summary

Miami-Dade County's Controller Division received a $895,430 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), effective June 1, 2026 through May 31, 2027. The Continuum of Care Program funds community-wide efforts to end homelessness by providing rapid housing solutions for homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and dislocation. Eligible uses of the funding include establishing and operating permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, rapid rehousing initiatives, transitional housing, supportive services, and Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS).

The award supports Miami-Dade County's ongoing homelessness prevention and housing assistance services, consistent with the county's substantial portfolio of HUD housing and community development grants totaling millions of dollars. Funding may be allocated across the five primary program components, including rental assistance, operating costs for housing facilities, supportive services delivery, HMIS infrastructure, and related planning and administration activities. This grant enables the county to continue providing essential housing and stabilization services to vulnerable populations throughout the Miami metropolitan area.
