The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Continuum of Care (CoC) Program awarded a $127,058 Project Grant to Underground Railroad, a non-profit organization in Saginaw, Michigan. This one-year grant, effective from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2025, supports Underground Railroad's efforts to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families, while minimizing the duration of their homelessness. The funding allows Underground Railroad to provide essential services, including housing stability assistance, temporary accommodations, and various support programs designed to help recipients achieve self-sufficiency and permanent housing. Underground Railroad also utilizes sub-awards from the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services and the Office on Violence Against Women to operate domestic violence emergency shelters, offer transitional supportive housing, and implement supervised visitation programs for survivors of domestic violence in the Saginaw community.
