This Project Grant award, provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267), will fund a range of services and housing assistance to address homelessness in Wheaton, Illinois. The $425,089 grant awarded to Dupage P.a.d.s Inc., a non-profit domestic shelter organization, will support the provision of permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, and comprehensive supportive services. These efforts are aimed at quickly housing homeless individuals and families, minimizing the trauma and dislocation caused by homelessness, and promoting self-sufficiency. The grant will fund eligible activities such as rental assistance, housing rehabilitation, leasing of structures, and implementation of a Homeless Management Information System (HMIS). Dupage P.a.d.s Inc. has a history of managing federal grants to combat homelessness in the local community and will serve as the primary awardee for this Project Grant. The expected outcomes include a decrease in the 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.
