Continuum of care program

The federal Project Grant award of $331,667.00 was provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267). The award supports the provision of comprehensive housing and support services by Matthew House Chicago Division, a minority-owned, woman-owned non-profit community development corporation located in Chicago, Illinois. The funding enables Matthew House to deliver a range of services, including rapid rehousing, permanent supportive housing, transitional housing, case management, mental health and substance abuse treatment, and job training for homeless individuals and families. This grant award, with a project period from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2025, reflects the Continuum of Care Program's goal of quickly rehousing homeless individuals, minimizing trauma and dislocation, promoting access to mainstream resources, and optimizing self-sufficiency.
