This $143,884 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (CFDA 14.267) was awarded to the County of Washtenaw, Michigan on March 11, 2025. The CoC Program provides funding to nonprofit providers, states, and local governments to quickly house homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and promoting self-sufficiency.
The grant will support a range of eligible activities under the CoC Program, including permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and potentially homelessness prevention. The specific subrecipient activities are unknown at this time, as the County of Washtenaw may pass through funds to other local organizations to implement the program. The overall goal is to decrease the number of individuals and families experiencing homelessness in the Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti areas through performance indicators like reduced length of homelessness, returns to homelessness, and increased exits to permanent housing.
