This federal Project Grant award of $248,750 was provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA# 14.267) to address youth homelessness in Kailua, Hawaii. The grant recipient, Residential Youth Services & Empowerment (Ryse), a non-profit organization and domestic shelter, will use the funds to establish and operate projects providing permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, and homelessness prevention assistance for youth under the age of 24.
The key products and services to be delivered include: 1) Leasing of housing and supportive service structures; 2) Rental assistance for transitional and permanent housing; 3) Supportive services to help participants obtain and maintain housing; 4) Operating costs for supportive housing; 5) Implementation and operation of a Homeless Management Information System (HMIS); and 6) Project administrative costs. The overall goal is to decrease the number of youth experiencing homelessness in the community by reducing length of homelessness, returns to homelessness, and increasing exits to permanent housing.
