Project Grant OH0478L5E022208

This federal Project Grant award of $1,012,598.00 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) will enable Mental Health Services For Homeless Persons, Inc. (doing business as Frontline Service), a private non-profit organization based in Cleveland, Ohio, to provide a continuum of housing assistance, case management, mental healthcare, and supportive services to vulnerable populations struggling with homelessness, severe mental illness, co-occurring disorders, and very low incomes in Cuyahoga County.

As a prime recipient, Frontline Service will use the CoC funding to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families in Cleveland while minimizing time spent homeless. The organization will also partner with the VA, other nonprofits, and state/local agencies to deliver trauma-informed clinical services, substance abuse treatment, vocational rehabilitation, and wraparound assistance to complement the housing programs. Additionally, Frontline Service intends to utilize subgrants to expand its impact and coordinate the delivery of evidence-based practices tailored to the diverse needs of underserved groups.
