Continuum of care program

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $160,004 Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) project grant to The Salvation Army, a non-profit organization located in Knoxville, Tennessee. This grant, effective June 1, 2024 through May 31, 2025, will fund the organization's efforts to provide rapid rehousing and supportive services for homeless individuals and families in the Knoxville area. The Salvation Army has been a regular recipient of these grants since at least 2020, typically receiving between $67,936 to $160,004 annually. In addition to the HUD Continuum of Care Program funding, The Salvation Army also serves as a sub-grantee under the Tennessee Housing Development Agency, receiving Emergency Solutions Grants to deliver shelter and services for eligible homeless participants, including funding specific to pandemic-related needs. Through these federal grant awards, The Salvation Army contributes to community-wide strategies aimed at quickly rehousing the homeless, minimizing trauma, and fostering self-sufficiency.
