Project Grant LA0321L6H052507

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development awarded The Wellspring Alliance For Families, Inc. a $324,151 Project Grant under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) for the period May 1, 2026 through April 30, 2027. This award supports the organization's delivery of comprehensive homeless assistance services in Monroe, Louisiana, including permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services, and Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS) operations.

The Wellspring, a tax-exempt nonprofit organization serving northeastern Louisiana since 2005, leverages this funding to address homelessness across vulnerable populations including veterans, domestic violence survivors, and families at risk of homelessness. The organization operates through established partnerships with local law enforcement, courts, and community agencies to provide trauma-informed, victim-centered services. This award represents part of the organization's broader federal funding portfolio, which includes substantial grants from the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Department of Justice's Office on Violence Against Women, enabling The Wellspring to coordinate integrated responses to homelessness and crisis intervention across a nine-parish service area.
