Continuum of care program

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $300,735 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program grant (CFDA 14.267) to United Way Of Plains, a non-profit organization in Wichita, Kansas. The grant, awarded on January 1, 2025, with a completion date of December 31, 2025, will fund United Way Of Plains' comprehensive efforts to address homelessness in the local community.

The CoC Program provides funding to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while minimizing the trauma of homelessness.

United Way Of Plains has been a consistent recipient of these federal grants, demonstrating its multifaceted approach to supporting housing stability, economic empowerment, and public health interventions for vulnerable populations.
