This $284,654 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program grant awarded on March 11, 2025 by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (CFDA 14.267) will support the Maryland Department of Health's Behavioral Health Administration in delivering a range of housing and supportive services to address homelessness in Catonsville, MD.
The grant funds may be used for eligible activities under the CoC Program, including permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention. The expected outcomes are a decrease in the number of individuals and families experiencing homelessness, as measured by performance indicators such as length of time homeless, returns to homelessness, and exits to permanent housing. While the specific subrecipient activities are unknown at the time of the award, the Behavioral Health Administration collaborates with local providers and nonprofits to implement these federally-funded programs and make sub-awards to ensure a comprehensive continuum of behavioral health and housing services is available throughout the state.
