Continuum of care program

This $160,060.00 Continuum of Care Program project grant award from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (CFDA 14.267) supports the Region Seven Mental Health Intellectual Disabilities Commission, doing business as Community Counseling Services, in providing comprehensive community mental health and housing assistance programs in West Point, Mississippi. The funding will enable the organization to deliver critical services including permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, and homeless management information systems (HMIS) designed to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and promoting self-sufficiency. As a non-profit organization with a focus on assisting vulnerable populations, Community Counseling Services has received multiple Continuum of Care Program grants from HUD totaling approximately $293,288 across recent awards from 2022-2025 to support its mission.
