Federal Grant Award Summary

Yakima Neighborhood Health Services received a $171,966 Project Grant award from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) for the performance period of April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2027. The CoC Program provides federal funding to nonprofit providers, states, and local governments to rapidly house homeless individuals and families while minimizing associated trauma and dislocation. As a Federally Qualified Health Center, Yakima Neighborhood Health Services delivers comprehensive homelessness intervention services in Yakima, Washington, through activities that may include permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services, and Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS) support.

The award supports the organization's ongoing efforts to address housing instability and homelessness within the Yakima Valley community while promoting self-sufficiency and access to mainstream support programs. This funding builds upon the organization's established track record of receiving CoC Program grants and demonstrates HUD's investment in comprehensive community-wide strategies to end homelessness through coordinated housing and social service delivery.
