The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $229,053 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program grant (CFDA 14.267) to the Goddard-Riverside Community Center, a non-profit organization in New York City. The grant funds will be used to provide a range of eligible activities under the CoC Program, including permanent supportive housing, rapid re-housing, transitional housing, supportive services, and homeless management information systems (HMIS).
The Goddard-Riverside Community Center will leverage this funding to address homelessness in the local community by quickly housing homeless individuals and families, minimizing trauma, promoting access to mainstream resources, and optimizing self-sufficiency. Specific services and assistance types may include rental assistance, case management, housing placement support, and other interventions designed to end homelessness and promote housing stability. The grant award is effective from March 2025 through the end of the performance period.
