This $744,484 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program grant, awarded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (CFDA 14.267) on March 11, 2025, supports efforts by Howard County of Maryland to provide housing assistance and supportive services to individuals and families experiencing homelessness. The grant funds may be used for a range of eligible activities under the CoC Program, including permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention. The goal of the program is to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and promoting self-sufficiency. As the grant recipient, Howard County will collaborate with local nonprofit providers and government agencies to deliver these services within the community. Specific subrecipient activities are unknown at this time, but the county has previously received CoC Program grants and often serves as both a prime recipient and sub-recipient for federal homeless assistance initiatives.
