Continuum of care program

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $101,118 Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) project grant to the County of Clearfield in DuBois, PA, with a performance period of July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025. The grant funding will support the County of Clearfield's efforts, through its Community Connections of Clearfield/Jefferson Counties division, to provide a range of housing assistance services to address homelessness in the local area. Eligible activities include transitional housing, permanent supportive housing, rapid re-housing, supportive services, Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) implementation, and homelessness prevention. This award is part of HUD's Continuum of Care Program, which aims to promote community-wide strategies to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and promoting self-sufficiency. The County of Clearfield has consistently received Continuum of Care funding since at least 2020 to deliver these critical housing and community development services in the DuBois region.
