Federal Grant Award Summary

The City of Dayton received a $3.53 million Project Grant award on June 1, 2026, from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development, under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267). This award supports community-wide efforts to end homelessness in Dayton, Ohio, through June 1, 2027. The grant funds eligible costs associated with five core program components: permanent supportive housing and rapid rehousing for homeless individuals and families; transitional housing; supportive services; Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS); and homelessness prevention activities.

The funding supports up to thirteen eligible cost categories, including CoC planning activities, fiscal control and accounting services, real property acquisition and rehabilitation, new construction, rental assistance, case management, and operating costs for housing and supportive services. As the recipient and coordinating agency, the City of Dayton will manage these funds to establish and operate projects that quickly house homeless individuals and families while providing necessary supportive services to promote self-sufficiency and minimize trauma and dislocation in the community.
