Project Grant PR0101L4N022512

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development awarded $741,430 to Administración de Servicios de Salud Mental y Contra la Adicción (ASSMCA) under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) for the period August 1, 2026 through July 31, 2027. ASSMCA will utilize these funds to establish and operate homelessness intervention services in Bayamón, Puerto Rico, including permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, and supportive services to homeless individuals and families.

This project grant supports HUD's broader initiative to promote community-wide commitment to ending homelessness by providing rapid housing solutions while minimizing trauma and dislocation. ASSMCA, serving as Puerto Rico's designated behavioral health and anti-addiction services authority, will leverage this funding to deliver coordinated services that address both immediate housing needs and longer-term self-sufficiency for vulnerable populations experiencing homelessness. The funding may also support eligible costs such as Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS), supportive services operations, and related CoC planning activities necessary to implement the comprehensive housing and services strategy.
