Continuum of care program

This federal Project Grant award of $256,399.00 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267), supports the Stark County Mental Health And Addiction Recovery (StarkMHAR) organization in Canton, Ohio. The funding enables StarkMHAR to provide a range of services and programs focused on addressing homelessness, mental health, and substance abuse in the local community. Specifically, the grant supports StarkMHAR's efforts to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families, minimize trauma, and promote self-sufficiency through activities such as permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, and homeless management information systems. This award, with a period of performance from Sep 1, 2024 to Aug 31, 2025, is part of HUD's nationwide approach to combating homelessness through community-based solutions delivered by nonprofit organizations and local governments.
