Continuum of care program

The Federal Grant Award provides $961,216.00 in funding through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) to Link Of Hampton Roads, Inc., a non-profit organization in Newport News, Virginia. The grant supports a range of housing and supportive services for individuals and families experiencing homelessness, including emergency transitional shelter, rapid rehousing, homelessness prevention, case management, housing counseling, job training, and mental health/substance abuse treatment. The award will fund these activities over a 12-month period from August 1, 2024, to July 31, 2025, as part of the organization's efforts to address veteran homelessness in the local community. The Continuum of Care Program is a comprehensive federal initiative designed to quickly rehouse homeless individuals, minimize the trauma of homelessness, and promote self-sufficiency.
