Continuum of care program

This federal Project Grant award, with ID MA0758D1T002301, was provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267). The $920,497.00 award, with a performance period from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2025, supports the City of Boston's Department of Neighborhood Development (DND) in delivering a range of housing and supportive services to address homelessness in the Boston area.

The DND, a municipal government entity, will use the CoC Program funding to provide permanent housing, transitional housing, rapid rehousing, supportive services, and homelessness prevention assistance to individuals and families experiencing homelessness. The department frequently collaborates with local nonprofit partners, such as Pine Street Inn, HomeStart, Familyaid Boston, and Metro Housing, to distribute sub-grants and expand service delivery. Through these comprehensive initiatives, the DND aims to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families, minimize trauma, promote self-sufficiency, and create pathways to stable housing across Boston's diverse communities.
