This Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) provides $492,699 to the City of Des Moines, Iowa to support efforts to address homelessness. The funding will be used to establish and operate projects under three program components: 1) Permanent Housing - Rapid Rehousing (PH-RRH), 2) Joint Transitional Housing/PH-RRH, and 3) Supportive Services Only for Coordinated Entry. Eligible activities include leasing of housing/service structures, rental assistance, supportive services to help participants obtain and maintain housing, operating costs, HMIS implementation, and administrative costs. The expected outcomes are a decrease in the number of survivors of domestic violence experiencing homelessness and a decrease in the overall number of individuals and families experiencing homelessness, as measured by performance indicators such as length of time homeless, returns to homelessness, and exits to permanent housing. The City of Des Moines will likely partner with local non-profit organizations as sub-recipients to implement the various housing and social service programs funded by this award.
