Continuum of care program

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $189,010 Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) project grant to Greater Opportunities, a nonprofit organization in Norwich, NY. The grant period runs from June 1, 2024 to May 31, 2025. Through this funding, Greater Opportunities will provide comprehensive housing assistance and support services to address homelessness in the Norwich area. Key services include outreach, emergency shelter, transitional housing, permanent supportive housing, and a range of social services designed to alleviate poverty and improve quality of life for low-income residents. As a sub-recipient, Greater Opportunities has partnered with state and local government agencies as well as other nonprofits to deliver these services and implement community-wide strategies to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and promoting self-sufficiency.
