Project Grant TX0741D6E002300

This federal Project Grant award, made by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267), provides $2,478,082 in funding to the Houston Area Women's Center Inc., a non-profit organization, to deliver services that address homelessness among survivors of domestic violence in the Houston, TX area.

The grant supports the establishment and operation of three program components: 1) Permanent Housing - Rapid Rehousing, 2) Joint Transitional Housing/Permanent Housing - Rapid Rehousing, and 3) Supportive Services Only for Coordinated Entry. Eligible activities include leasing structures for housing and supportive services, rental assistance, supportive services to obtain and maintain housing, operating costs, HMIS implementation, and administrative costs. The expected outcomes are a decrease in the number of domestic violence survivors experiencing homelessness and improvements in performance indicators such as length of homelessness, returns to homelessness, and exits to permanent housing. The grant period runs from February 1, 2025 to January 31, 2026.
