The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $871,914 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program grant to Mid-Coast Family Services, a non-profit organization based in Victoria, Texas. This one-year grant, effective August 1, 2024 through July 31, 2025, will fund Mid-Coast Family Services' efforts to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families in South Texas while minimizing trauma and promoting self-sufficiency.
The CoC Program provides funding to nonprofit organizations, state/local governments, and public housing agencies to address homelessness through comprehensive community-based strategies. Mid-Coast Family Services will use the grant to provide a range of housing assistance and supportive services, including rapid rehousing, homelessness prevention, case management, housing counseling, rental assistance, job training, and mental health/substance abuse treatment. As a sub-recipient of additional state funding, Mid-Coast Family Services will also deliver crisis counseling, legal advocacy, hospital accompaniment, and operate a 24-hour crisis hotline, as well as implement programs focused on family violence prevention, substance abuse prevention, and services for at-risk youth.
