The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $1,312,869 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program grant (CFDA 14.267) to the Spring Branch Community Health Center in Houston, TX to support housing and homeless services. The CoC Program is designed to provide funding for nonprofit providers, states, and local governments to quickly house homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and promoting self-sufficiency.
The grant funding will enable Spring Branch Community Health Center to deliver a range of eligible services under the CoC Program, including permanent supportive housing, transitional housing, supportive services, homeless management information systems (HMIS), and potentially homelessness prevention. The center will leverage this award to continue its mission of providing comprehensive healthcare and housing assistance to underserved communities in the Houston area. As the subrecipient, the specific activities to be performed have not yet been determined at the time of the award.
