This federal Project Grant award, provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267), is designed to promote community-wide efforts to quickly house homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and promoting self-sufficiency. The $414,330 award to Denton County Friends Of The Family Inc., a non-profit domestic shelter organization, will support a range of eligible activities, including permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and potentially homelessness prevention.
As the prime recipient, Denton County Friends Of The Family Inc. will implement critical programs to address the complex needs of homeless individuals and families in the local community. The organization has also participated as a sub-grantee in various federal and state grant programs, including initiatives focused on domestic violence, sexual assault, and family justice services. Through this coordinated, community-based approach, the grant aims to decrease homelessness by reducing the length of time individuals and families experience homelessness, preventing returns to homelessness, and facilitating more exits to permanent housing.
