Continuum of care program

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $931,223 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program grant to the Georgia Housing & Finance Authority for the period of June 1, 2024, to May 31, 2025. The CoC Program is a federal grant initiative designed to address homelessness by providing funding for housing and supportive services.

Through this award, the Georgia Housing & Finance Authority will deliver a range of housing assistance and services to individuals and families experiencing homelessness in the Atlanta metropolitan area and broader Georgia region. The funded activities may include permanent housing, transitional housing, rapid rehousing, supportive services, homelessness prevention, and related case management. The goal is to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families, minimize the trauma of homelessness, promote access to mainstream resources, and help participants achieve self-sufficiency and stable, independent living.
