This federal Project Grant award of $645,663 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) supports Vita Nova, Inc., a non-profit organization in Riviera Beach, Florida, to provide comprehensive services addressing youth homelessness in Palm Beach County.
The grant will fund Vita Nova's efforts to quickly rehouse homeless youth aged 18-25, minimize the trauma and dislocation caused by homelessness, and promote self-sufficiency through a range of eligible activities. This includes leasing housing, providing rental assistance, offering supportive services such as case management and job training, operating supportive housing, and implementing a homeless management information system (HMIS). The goal is to decrease the number of youth experiencing homelessness and improve key performance indicators like length of homelessness, returns to homelessness, and exits to permanent housing.
