Continuum of care program

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $141,205 Project Grant under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) to the non-profit organization Ka Mana O NA Helu, located in Waipahu, Hawaii. This one-year grant, valid from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025, supports Ka Mana O NA Helu's efforts to provide housing assistance and supportive services to address homelessness in the local community. The funding enables the organization to implement initiatives focused on rapidly rehousing homeless individuals and families, while minimizing the trauma associated with homelessness. Key activities include permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention. Through this comprehensive approach, Ka Mana O NA Helu aims to quickly rehouse the homeless, promote access to mainstream resources, and optimize self-sufficiency among those experiencing homelessness in Waipahu and the surrounding areas.
