Continuum of care program

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $472,120 Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) Project Grant to Ability Housing Inc., a nonprofit community development corporation, to provide affordable housing and supportive services to low-income individuals and families, particularly those experiencing or at risk of homelessness, in Jacksonville, Florida. The grant funds a comprehensive range of housing assistance and support services, including rapid rehousing, case management, employment assistance, mental health and substance abuse treatment, and financial literacy training.

The organization also partners with local governments and other nonprofits to deliver these services and expand its community development activities.
