Federal Grant Award Summary

The Center For Family Resources, Inc. received a $466,681 Project Grant award effective March 1, 2026, through February 28, 2027, from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267). The organization will utilize these funds to establish and operate housing and supportive services projects designed to address homelessness in the Marietta, Georgia area. Eligible activities funded through this award include permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, rapid rehousing initiatives, transitional housing, and comprehensive supportive services only components, as well as operations of Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS) infrastructure.

The funded services are designed to quickly house homeless individuals and families while promoting self-sufficiency and access to mainstream support programs. Based on the organization's experience as a CoC Program recipient, services will likely encompass rental and utility assistance, case management, mental health and substance abuse treatment referrals, job training, and connections to community resources. The Center For Family Resources, Inc. will coordinate activities with sub-grant partners including the County of Cobb and City of Marietta to expand service delivery capacity and minimize the trauma and dislocation associated with homelessness.
