The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $106,433 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program grant (CFDA 14.267) to the Georgia Housing & Finance Authority on March 11, 2025. The CoC Program is designed to promote community-wide efforts to address homelessness by providing funding for nonprofit organizations, state and local governments to quickly house homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and promoting self-sufficiency.
The grant will support a range of eligible activities under the CoC Program, including permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention. The specific sub-recipient activities are not known at the time of the award. As a state housing agency, the Georgia Housing & Finance Authority will leverage this funding to deliver comprehensive housing solutions and social services tailored to the needs of low-income, homeless, and at-risk populations in the Atlanta metropolitan area and broader Georgia region.
