Federal Project Grant Award Summary

The Housing Authority of Savannah received a $2,098,054 Project Grant award dated March 1, 2026, from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267). This 12-month award, with performance concluding February 28, 2027, funds comprehensive homelessness intervention services in the Savannah, Georgia area. The CoC Program supports rapid rehousing initiatives, permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, transitional housing, and supportive services designed to quickly house homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and dislocation associated with housing insecurity.

The funded activities enable the Housing Authority to establish and operate projects addressing homelessness through multiple service components, including permanent housing programs, transitional housing facilities, and targeted supportive services. Additionally, the award supports essential program infrastructure such as Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS) operations, planning activities, and fiscal management functions necessary to ensure proper federal fund stewardship and reporting. The CoC Program investment reinforces the Housing Authority's mission to promote self-sufficiency and access to mainstream support programs for vulnerable populations experiencing homelessness in the Savannah region.
