Federal Project Grant Summary

The Georgia Housing & Finance Authority received a $596,465 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267), awarded May 1, 2026, with a completion date of April 30, 2027. This funding supports the Authority's efforts to address homelessness and housing insecurity across Georgia through established CoC program components including permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services, and Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS).

The grant enables the Georgia Housing & Finance Authority to provide a comprehensive range of services to homeless individuals and families in collaboration with nonprofit providers and local governments. Eligible activities funded under this award include housing acquisition and rehabilitation, new construction, rental assistance, case management, job training, and planning and administrative costs necessary to effectively coordinate and deliver these services. Through these CoC-funded initiatives, the Authority works to quickly rehouse homeless populations while minimizing trauma, promote access to mainstream resources, and support pathways toward self-sufficiency for vulnerable populations in the Atlanta metropolitan area and statewide.
