Federal Grant Award Summary

KIM Wilson Housing Inc. received a $1,381,599 Project Grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267), effective July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027. The organization delivers comprehensive homeless services and housing assistance in the Kansas City and Wyandotte County area, including tenant-based rental assistance (TBRA), security deposits, permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, case management, and housing stabilization services to individuals and families experiencing or at-risk of homelessness.

As a tax-exempt nonprofit, KIM Wilson Housing Inc. has established itself as a prime recipient of HUD's CoC program funding, with 20 prime grants totaling $10.1 million across prime and sub-award combinations since 2021. The organization leverages sub-awards from local entities to expand rental assistance capacity, particularly serving populations with complex needs including individuals with severe and persistent mental illness, those reentering from the criminal justice system, and persons at or below 50 percent of area median income. These services directly support HUD's CoC Program objective to promote community-wide commitment to ending homelessness while minimizing trauma and dislocation caused by housing instability.
