This $297,314 Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) will support the Rochester Housing Authority in providing housing and supportive services to individuals and families experiencing homelessness in the Rochester, NY area. The funding can be used for a range of eligible activities, including permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention. The overarching goal is to decrease homelessness by quickly housing homeless individuals and families, minimizing trauma, promoting access to mainstream resources, and optimizing self-sufficiency. While the specific sub-recipient activities are unknown at the time of award, the Rochester Housing Authority, as a local government housing agency, will leverage this CoC Program funding to deliver comprehensive community-based strategies to address homelessness in the Rochester region.
