Continuum of care program

The federal Project Grant award of $324,041.00 was provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267). The funds were awarded to the Alliance To End Homelessness, a non-profit organization serving as the lead agency for the Cook County Continuum of Care, to support a range of services and housing options for individuals and families experiencing homelessness in suburban Cook County, Illinois. Key activities include street outreach, coordinated entry, rapid rehousing, permanent supportive housing, and wraparound services to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families and promote their self-sufficiency. The award will be utilized from July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025 to implement community-wide strategies to address homelessness, including partnerships with local non-profit organizations such as Connections For The Homeless, Housing Forward, and Respond Now Inc.
