Federal Grant Award Summary

The County of Hudson Housing and Community Development Division received a $596,571 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267), effective July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026. The award supports activities designed to end homelessness in Hudson County by funding the establishment and operation of housing and support services for individuals and families experiencing homelessness.

Under this award, the County of Hudson will deliver services across five program components: permanent housing (including permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities and rapid rehousing); transitional housing; supportive services only; Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS); and homelessness prevention activities. Eligible funded activities may include CoC planning, real property acquisition and rehabilitation, new construction, rental assistance, case management, and operating costs. These coordinated efforts aim to quickly house homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and dislocation, promoting access to mainstream programs, and optimizing self-sufficiency among vulnerable populations in the Jersey City area.
