This federal Project Grant award of $161,535 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) is intended to support the development and implementation of a coordinated community approach to preventing and ending youth homelessness in Gering, Nebraska. The funding will be used to establish and operate projects across five program components: permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention. Key eligible costs include leasing of structures, rental assistance, supportive services, operating costs, HMIS implementation, and administrative expenses. The expected outcomes are to decrease the number of youth experiencing homelessness, as measured by metrics such as length of time homeless, returns to homelessness, and exits to permanent housing. The grant recipient, Community Action Partnership of Western Nebraska (CAPWN), is a non-profit organization with a history of delivering federal social services programs in the region.
