Project Grant VA0137L3F012517

The Department of Housing and Urban Development Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development awarded Supportworks Housing $1,401,340 on August 1, 2026, under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267), a Project Grant designed to promote community-wide commitment to ending homelessness and provide funding for efforts to quickly house homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and dislocation caused by homelessness.

The Continuum of Care Program funds eligible costs to establish and operate projects across five components: permanent housing including permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities and rapid rehousing; transitional housing; supportive services only; Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS); and in some cases, homelessness prevention. Eligible activities encompass COC planning, UFA costs for fiscal control and accounting, acquisition and rehabilitation of real property, new construction, and other specified assistance types.

Supportworks Housing, a tax-exempt nonprofit based in Richmond, Virginia, operates primarily as a prime recipient delivering permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, case management, and benefits counseling to homeless individuals and families in the Richmond area. The organization has accumulated approximately $78.9 million in total obligated federal dollars across 165 awards since its first federal grant in July 2005, with the vast majority from HUD CoC Program funding.

The award period runs through July 31, 2027, with place of performance in Richmond, Virginia (23223).
