Federal Grant Award Summary

Cares Of NY, Inc. received a $460,058 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) effective October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2026. The award supports the organization's delivery of comprehensive housing and supportive services to individuals and families experiencing homelessness in Saratoga Springs, New York. The funded activities encompass five core program components: permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, rapid rehousing with rental assistance, transitional housing, supportive services only (including case management, employment assistance, healthcare referrals, and mental health and substance abuse treatment), and Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS) operations.

The grant enables Cares Of NY, Inc. to continue its established track record of administering complex homelessness intervention programs through eligible CoC activities including leasing and rental assistance, facility rehabilitation and acquisition, supportive services delivery, and collaborative planning efforts. The organization leverages these funds to quickly rehouse vulnerable populations while minimizing trauma and promoting pathways to self-sufficiency, consistent with the CoC Program's goal of community-wide commitment to ending homelessness.
