Project Grant MI0833L5F002501

The Department of Housing and Urban Development awarded Truenorth Community Services $182,020 on September 1, 2026, under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) to support homeless assistance activities in Fremont, Michigan through August 31, 2027.

Truenorth, a nonprofit organization serving Lake, Mason, Newaygo, Oceana, and Muskegon counties in Michigan, operates as a Housing Assessment and Resource Agency and fiduciary agency for local Continuum of Care programs. The funding supports eligible activities under five program components: permanent housing (including permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities and rapid rehousing), transitional housing, supportive services only, homeless management information systems, and homelessness prevention. Permissible uses of funds include planning activities, United Funding Agency costs for fiscal control and accounting, acquisition and rehabilitation of real property for housing or supportive services, new construction, equipment, operating expenses, and staff salaries.

The Continuum of Care Program is designed to promote community-wide commitment to ending homelessness, provide rapid rehousing for homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and dislocation, promote access to mainstream programs, and optimize self-sufficiency among persons experiencing homelessness.
