Federal Project Grant Award Summary

Lane County Oregon received a $278,657 Project Grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) for the period July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The Continuum of Care Program funds community-wide efforts to end homelessness by supporting nonprofit providers, states, and local governments in quickly rehousing homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and dislocation. Lane County, which serves as the Continuum of Care fiscal agent for the Eugene area, uses COC Program funding to establish and operate housing and supportive service projects across five eligible program components: permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services only, and Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS).

The grant funds eligible costs including COC planning activities, unified funding agency (UFA) fiscal control and accounting functions, acquisition and rehabilitation of structures for housing or supportive services, new construction, leasing, rental assistance, operating costs, and supportive services. Lane County's established role as COC fiscal agent and prime recipient reflects its significant federal footprint in homelessness intervention, with 139 COC awards in its recent portfolio ranging from $100,814 to $836,469 for permanent supportive housing, transitional housing, rapid rehousing, supportive services, and HMIS projects serving the Eugene, Oregon area.
