Federal Grant Award Summary

Northwest Michigan Supportive Housing (FMH) received a $193,528 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267), awarded June 1, 2026, with a completion date of May 31, 2027. FMH, a nonprofit organization based in Traverse City, Michigan, will utilize this funding to provide comprehensive housing and supportive services designed to address homelessness in the northwest Michigan region. The grant supports eligible activities across five program components: permanent supportive housing (including rapid rehousing), transitional housing, supportive services, Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention initiatives.

The CoC Program funding will enable FMH to deliver targeted interventions including case management, mental health services, job training, and housing relocation assistance to homeless individuals and families. These services are designed to facilitate rapid rehousing, minimize trauma and dislocation, reduce the duration of homelessness, and promote self-sufficiency among the populations served. FMH's grant-funded activities align with the broader CoC Program objectives of promoting community-wide commitment to ending homelessness while optimizing access to mainstream programs for individuals and families experiencing housing instability.
