Continuum of care program

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $860,394 Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) grant to Caringworks, Inc., a minority-owned, Black American-owned nonprofit organization in Decatur, Georgia. This 1-year project grant, awarded on December 1, 2023, supports Caringworks' comprehensive efforts to address homelessness and promote housing stability through transitional housing, mental health treatment, substance abuse recovery support, and other wraparound services. As a major recipient of Continuum of Care Program funding, Caringworks leverages federal grants totaling over $3 million annually to provide rapid rehousing, mental health treatment, addiction recovery support, and other services for homeless populations in the greater Atlanta area. The organization has also received federal contracts to operate transitional housing facilities for homeless veterans.
