The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $315,190 Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) Project Grant to Housing Services Mid Michigan, a non-profit organization based in Charlotte, Michigan. The grant is intended to support the organization's efforts to address homelessness in the mid-Michigan region.
The grant funds will be used to provide a range of eligible activities under the Continuum of Care Program, including permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention. As a subrecipient, Housing Services Mid Michigan will partner with state agencies to implement initiatives such as the Michigan Housing Navigation Program and the Michigan Homelessness Prevention Program. These collaborative efforts aim to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families, minimize the trauma and dislocation caused by homelessness, promote access to mainstream resources, and optimize self-sufficiency among those experiencing homelessness.
