Continuum of care program

This federal Project Grant award, provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development, supports the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267). The $787,100 grant awarded to Hawai'i Island Home For Recovery, Inc., a minority-owned, woman-owned, non-profit domestic shelter organization, will fund a range of comprehensive housing and support services to address homelessness in the Hilo, Hawaii community. Key services include rapid rehousing, rental assistance, case management, transitional housing programs, transitional skills training, and addiction recovery services. This federal grant award, with a project period from Nov 1, 2024 to Oct 31, 2025, demonstrates HUD's sustained commitment to supporting community-based solutions that quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while promoting long-term independence and self-sufficiency.
