This $218,868 federal Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) will fund efforts to quickly rehouse and provide supportive services to individuals and families experiencing homelessness in Hamilton, Ohio. The CoC Program is designed to promote community-wide strategies to end homelessness by supporting nonprofit providers, state and local governments.
Eligible activities under this award include providing permanent housing, transitional housing, and supportive services to help homeless individuals and families achieve self-sufficiency. The funding may also be used for homeless management information systems (HMIS) and project administrative costs. Although the specific sub-recipient activities are unknown at the time of award, the overall goal is to decrease the number of individuals and families experiencing homelessness by reducing the length of time homeless, preventing returns to homelessness, and facilitating exits to permanent housing.
