Continuum of care program

This $2,888,871.00 Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) grant awarded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) supports the provision of comprehensive support services for homeless, runaway, and at-risk youth in New York City by the non-profit organization Covenant House New York. The funding will be used to provide permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, and a homeless management information system (HMIS) to quickly rehouse individuals and families experiencing homelessness while minimizing the trauma. This aligns with the Continuum of Care Program's goal of promoting community-wide efforts to end homelessness through the provision of housing and supportive services. Covenant House New York has a history of receiving federal grants from HUD and other agencies to address youth homelessness and vulnerabilities, including a $600,000 grant from the Health Resources and Services Administration to enhance mental and behavioral health services.
