Federal Project Grant Award Summary

The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development awarded $931,566 to the Washington State Department of Commerce under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) for the period January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026. The CoC Program supports community-wide efforts to end homelessness by funding activities that quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while minimizing associated trauma and dislocation.

Under this award, the Washington State Department of Commerce will administer funding for eligible CoC Program components, which may include permanent supportive housing and rapid rehousing for persons with disabilities, transitional housing, supportive services, Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention initiatives. The department will serve as the fiscal intermediary and may sub-award portions of these funds to local governments, nonprofit organizations, and other eligible entities throughout Washington to implement coordinated housing and supportive service strategies that promote self-sufficiency among individuals and families experiencing homelessness.
