Continuum of care program

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has awarded the Richmond Behavioral Health Authority (RBHA), a non-profit organization in Richmond, Virginia, a $276,520 Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) grant. The award, effective November 1, 2023 through October 31, 2024, will fund RBHA's efforts to provide rapid rehousing, homelessness prevention, and supportive services to address homelessness in the local community. The Continuum of Care Program promotes community-wide strategies and coordination among service providers to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while supporting self-sufficiency and access to mainstream resources. RBHA has been awarded multiple grants under this program to implement evidence-based interventions addressing the complex needs of vulnerable populations, including those experiencing homelessness, serious mental illness, and co-occurring disorders. This federal grant award will enable RBHA to continue its comprehensive approach to ending homelessness in Richmond through the provision of housing assistance and an array of supportive services.
