Continuum of care program

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), through its Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267), awarded a $1,521,208 Project Grant to the SL County Housing Authority, doing business as Housing Connect, to provide affordable housing and supportive services to low-income residents, homeless individuals, and families in South Salt Lake, Utah. The grant, with a performance period from June 1, 2024 to May 31, 2025, will enable Housing Connect to deliver a range of housing assistance and social services, including permanent housing, rapid re-housing, transitional housing, homelessness prevention, case management, housing counseling, rental assistance, job training, and mental health/substance abuse treatment. As a public housing authority, Housing Connect leverages this federal funding to collaborate with state and local agencies and expand its comprehensive, community-based initiatives to quickly rehouse vulnerable populations and promote long-term stability and self-sufficiency.
