Project Grant MA0058L1T002518

The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development awarded the City of Boston $2.326 million on September 1, 2026, under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267), a Project Grant that runs through August 31, 2027.

The City of Boston, operating through its Mayor's Office of Emergency Management division and Treasurer's Office, will use the funding to establish and operate projects under the program's five components: permanent housing (including permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities and rapid rehousing), transitional housing, supportive services only, Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention where applicable. Eligible costs include COC planning activities, United Funding Agency costs for fiscal control and accounting, acquisition and rehabilitation of real property for housing or supportive services, and new construction of housing or service facilities.

Work is performed in Boston, Massachusetts. The Continuum of Care Program is designed to promote community-wide commitment to ending homelessness, provide funding for nonprofit providers, states, and local governments to quickly house homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and dislocation, promote access to mainstream programs by homeless populations, and optimize self-sufficiency among individuals and families experiencing homelessness.
