The Department of Housing and Urban Development awarded $223,395 to Garrett County Maryland, Community Action Committee, Inc. on July 1, 2026, under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267).

The recipient operates Continuum of Care program activities in Oakland, Maryland through June 30, 2027. Under this award, the organization may establish and operate projects across five program components: permanent housing (including permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities and rapid rehousing), transitional housing, supportive services only, Homeless Management Information Systems, and homelessness prevention where eligible. 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 or building additions.

The Continuum of Care Program is designed to promote community-wide commitment to ending homelessness and 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, and optimize self-sufficiency among individuals and families experiencing homelessness.
