Continuum of care program

The federal Project Grant award of $132,882.00 was provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) to Catholic Charities of Southern Missouri, Inc., a non-profit organization. The funding will support the delivery of a range of services and housing assistance to address homelessness in the Springfield, MO area during the period of October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2025. The Continuum of Care Program is designed to promote community-wide efforts to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while minimizing the trauma of homelessness. Catholic Charities will use the grant to provide permanent and transitional housing, rapid rehousing, homelessness prevention, case management, housing counseling, and other supportive services to vulnerable populations, including low-income families and veterans.
