Continuum of care program

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Continuum of Care (CoC) Program awarded a $178,206 Project Grant to Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Rochester, operating through its Tompkins/Tioga Division in Ithaca, NY. The grant supports comprehensive efforts to address homelessness, including permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, and homeless management information systems. The funding, which covers the period from November 1, 2024 to October 31, 2025, will enable Catholic Charities to provide critical services such as legal advocacy for immigrants, security deposit assistance, case management, translation services, job development, and support for refugees and individuals experiencing homelessness. This award demonstrates Catholic Charities' multifaceted approach to supporting vulnerable populations through targeted, culturally sensitive interventions.
