This Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Continuum of Care (CoC) Program Project Grant award of $166,389 to Blue Valley Community Action Inc. (BVCA), a private non-profit organization in Fairbury, Nebraska, is intended to support BVCA's efforts to quickly house homeless individuals and families in southeastern Nebraska while minimizing trauma and promoting self-sufficiency. The award will fund a range of eligible activities under the CoC Program, including permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems, and homelessness prevention. As a participant in the CoC Program, BVCA will leverage this funding to provide a continuum of services aimed at addressing homelessness in the region, such as rapid re-housing, supportive housing, and case management. The award is expected to contribute to decreasing the number of individuals and families experiencing homelessness by improving key performance metrics like length of time homeless, returns to homelessness, and exits to permanent housing.
