Continuum of care program

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $1,898,198 Project Grant under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) to the City of Boston's Department of Neighborhood Development. The funding supports a range of housing assistance and supportive services aimed at quickly rehousing homeless individuals and families in the Boston metropolitan area while promoting self-sufficiency. Key activities include developing and rehabilitating affordable housing units, providing rental assistance and eviction prevention, operating emergency shelters and transitional housing, conducting street outreach, implementing rapid re-housing programs, offering housing counseling and job training, and delivering supportive services for vulnerable populations. The City of Boston collaborates with local nonprofit partners like Pine Street Inn to expand affordable housing and provide comprehensive housing-focused services to low-income residents across the city's neighborhoods.
