This federal Project Grant award, totaling $312,675 and issued on March 11, 2025, is part of the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) administered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The purpose of the CoC Program is to promote community-wide efforts to end homelessness by providing funding to nonprofit providers, states, and local governments to quickly house homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and promoting self-sufficiency.
The grant recipient, Caringworks, Inc., is a minority-owned, Black American-owned nonprofit organization based in Decatur, Georgia, that specializes in comprehensive services to address homelessness and behavioral health issues. The funds will enable Caringworks to deliver a range of eligible activities under the CoC Program, including permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and potentially homelessness prevention. The organization's mission and ongoing grant management experience align with federal initiatives to rapidly rehouse homeless individuals and families, provide tailored interventions to promote long-term housing stability, and optimize access to mainstream resources for vulnerable populations.
