Continuum of care program

This federal Project Grant award in the amount of $399,183 was provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267). The grant recipient, Hope For Youth, Inc., a nonprofit organization based in Amityville, New York, will use the funds to provide housing and supportive services to address homelessness and support vulnerable youth in the community. The award supports activities such as permanent housing, transitional housing, rapid rehousing, and critical services including case management, housing counseling, mental health treatment, and job training. The project is scheduled to run from January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025. The Continuum of Care Program is designed to promote community-wide efforts to end homelessness by providing funding for nonprofit organizations, states, and local governments to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while minimizing the trauma of homelessness.
