Federal Grant Award Summary

The City of Baltimore received a $115,684 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development, under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267), awarded on June 1, 2026, with a completion date of May 31, 2027. The CoC Program supports community-wide efforts to end homelessness by funding eligible costs to establish and operate projects across five program components: permanent housing (including permanent supportive housing and rapid rehousing), transitional housing, supportive services only, Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention activities.

Under this award, the City of Baltimore is authorized to utilize funding for eligible activities that may include CoC planning and coordination, unified funding agency fiscal control and accounting services, acquisition and rehabilitation of real property for housing and supportive services, new construction, rental assistance, case management, and operating costs. These activities are designed to minimize trauma and dislocation while promoting access to mainstream programs and optimizing self-sufficiency among individuals and families experiencing homelessness. The city typically collaborates with local nonprofit subrecipients such as Health Care for the Homeless and House of Ruth Maryland to implement these federally funded homelessness intervention programs.
