This $748,634 federal Project Grant awarded on March 11, 2025 by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) will provide funding to the Center For Hope And Safety, Inc. (CHS), a non-profit organization and domestic shelter in New Jersey. The grant will support CHS's efforts to address homelessness in the community by quickly housing homeless individuals and families while minimizing the trauma and dislocation caused by homelessness. Eligible activities under the CoC Program include permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention. The award aims to decrease the number of individuals and families experiencing homelessness through performance indicators such as reduced length of homelessness, lower returns to homelessness, and increased exits to permanent housing. While the specific subrecipient activities are unknown at the time of award, the CoC Program funds may be used by CHS to provide a range of housing and supportive services to the target population.
