Federal Grant Award Summary

Saint Clair County Intergovernmental Grants Department received a Project Grant award of $245,593.00 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development, under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267). The award was effective July 1, 2026, with a completion date of June 30, 2027, and performance conducted in Swansea, Illinois.

Under this award, the recipient may provide services across five eligible program components to address homelessness in Saint Clair County and surrounding Illinois counties (Clinton, Monroe, Randolph, and Washington). These components include permanent supportive housing for individuals with disabilities, rapid rehousing for homeless families and individuals, transitional housing, supportive services only, and Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS). The CoC Program funds support establishment and operation of housing and service projects, including eligible costs for property acquisition, rehabilitation, new construction, leasing, rental assistance, operating expenses, and supportive services. Additionally, the award may support CoC planning activities, unified funding agency administrative costs, and in certain cases, homelessness prevention services. This funding reflects HUD's commitment to promoting community-wide efforts to end homelessness while maximizing self-sufficiency among affected populations.
