Continuum of care program

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $370,419 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program grant to the Georgia Housing & Finance Authority to support housing and supportive services for individuals and families experiencing homelessness in the Atlanta, Georgia metropolitan area. This one-year Project Grant, with a performance period from Sep 1, 2024 to Aug 31, 2025, will enable the Georgia Housing & Finance Authority to quickly rehouse homeless individuals, minimize trauma, promote access to mainstream resources, and help participants transition to stable, independent living situations. The funding will support a range of eligible activities under the CoC Program, including permanent housing, transitional housing, rapid rehousing, and homelessness prevention services. By collaborating with nonprofit providers, local governments, and public housing agencies, the Georgia Housing & Finance Authority aims to implement targeted, community-based solutions that address complex housing needs in the region.
