Continuum of care program

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $2,598,435 Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) Project Grant to Sos Community Services, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in Ypsilanti, Michigan. The grant funding supports Sos Community Services' efforts to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families, minimize the trauma of homelessness, and promote self-sufficiency. Eligible activities under this grant include permanent housing, transitional housing, rapid rehousing, supportive services, Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention. As a long-standing recipient of HUD's Continuum of Care Program funding, Sos Community Services has delivered comprehensive homeless services and housing assistance in the local community, including shelter, food pantry, case management, job training, and mental health/substance abuse treatment. The organization also serves as a sub-recipient partner on several federal grant programs administered by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, further expanding its capacity to address community well-being beyond housing.
