Federal Grant Award Summary

Grace House, Inc. received a $611,164 Project Grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267), effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2027. This funding supports Grace House's mission to address homelessness and housing insecurity in the Jackson, Mississippi metropolitan area by providing comprehensive housing and supportive services to individuals and families experiencing homelessness, with particular emphasis on persons living with HIV/AIDS.

Under this award, Grace House delivers housing and supportive services through five primary CoC program components: permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services only, and Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS). The organization's service portfolio includes tenant-based rental assistance, permanent housing placement, short-term rent and utility assistance, and housing relocation and stabilization services. These interventions are designed to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while promoting self-sufficiency and reducing the trauma and dislocation associated with housing insecurity. Grace House operates 16 facility-based housing units and collaborates with municipal partners to deliver comprehensive community-based solutions addressing homelessness.
