Continuum of care program

This $319,605 federal Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) supports Preble Street, a nonprofit organization in Portland, Maine, in delivering a range of housing assistance and supportive services to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while promoting self-sufficiency. The grant, with a period of performance from June 1, 2024 to May 31, 2025, will fund Preble Street's provision of permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, and homeless management information systems. These comprehensive community-based initiatives aim to address homelessness through strategies that minimize trauma and help participants access mainstream resources. The federal award expands Preble Street's efforts to serve vulnerable populations, including veterans and youth, across Cumberland, York, and Androscoggin counties in Maine.
