This federal Project Grant award under the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) provides $346,213 to Columbiana Metro Housing, a local housing authority located in East Liverpool, Ohio. The funding will support efforts to quickly house homeless individuals and families in the Columbiana County area, minimize the trauma and dislocation caused by homelessness, and promote self-sufficiency. Eligible activities include permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention. The grant aims to decrease the number of individuals and families experiencing homelessness by improving performance indicators such as length of time homeless, returns to homelessness, and exits to permanent housing. While the specific sub-recipient activities are unknown at the time of award, the grant will enable Columbiana Metro Housing to play a critical role in delivering essential housing resources and support services to vulnerable populations in the local community.
