Continuum of care program

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $216,168 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program grant to Lawrence County Social Services, Inc., a non-profit organization in New Castle, Pennsylvania. The award, effective from September 1, 2024, to August 31, 2025, supports a range of activities to address homelessness, including permanent housing, rapid re-housing, transitional housing, supportive services, and homeless management information systems. As a consistent recipient of HUD CoC Program funding, Lawrence County Social Services leverages these federal grant resources to provide critical support and community services to vulnerable populations in the region. The Continuum of Care Program, authorized under CFDA 14.267, is a comprehensive federal initiative designed to quickly rehouse individuals and families experiencing homelessness, minimize the trauma of homelessness, and promote self-sufficiency.
