This $1,065,927 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program grant, awarded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) on March 11, 2025, funds activities to quickly house and support homeless individuals and families in the Kensington, Maryland area.
The grant provides funding for the Housing Opportunities Commission of Montgomery County (HOC) to implement a range of eligible CoC program components, including permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, and homelessness prevention. The goal is to promote community-wide efforts to end homelessness, minimize trauma, and help participants achieve self-sufficiency. Specific activities may include rental assistance, case management, and operating costs for supportive housing. The grant also covers administrative costs and the implementation of a Homeless Management Information System (HMIS). As a subrecipient's activities are not specified at the time of award, the full scope of services to be delivered is unclear. However, the CoC Program is designed to provide a comprehensive approach to addressing homelessness within the local community.
