Continuum of care program

This federal Project Grant award of $113,597.00 from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) supports the Volunteers of America Delaware Valley, Inc. in delivering critical social services to vulnerable populations, with a focus on addressing homelessness, supporting veterans, and offering housing stability services in Camden, NJ.

The award provides funding for the organization's efforts to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while minimizing the trauma of homelessness. Eligible activities under the CoC Program include permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention. The overarching goals of the program are to promote community-wide commitment to ending homelessness, enhance access to mainstream programs, and optimize self-sufficiency among those experiencing housing insecurity.
