Federal Grant Award Summary

The City of Baltimore received a $1,184,522 Project Grant award from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development, under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267). The award, effective May 1, 2026 through April 30, 2027, supports the city's efforts to address homelessness through the establishment and operation of housing and supportive service projects. Eligible activities funded through this award include permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, rapid rehousing programs, transitional housing, supportive services, and Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS) infrastructure to track and coordinate services for individuals and families experiencing homelessness.

The City of Baltimore implements CoC Program activities through a collaborative network of nonprofit subrecipients, including organizations such as Health Care for the Homeless, House of Ruth Maryland, and Springboard Community Services. Funding supports essential costs associated with project planning, acquisition and rehabilitation of residential properties, rental assistance, case management, and operational expenses necessary to minimize trauma and dislocation while promoting self-sufficiency among homeless populations and those at-risk of homelessness in the Baltimore metropolitan area.
