Continuum of care program

The federal Project Grant award of $168,164 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) will fund the Community Action Coalition For South Central Wisconsin, Inc. (CAC) to provide housing assistance and supportive services to homeless and low-income populations in the Madison, Wisconsin area. The award will enable CAC to deliver a range of services, including rapid rehousing, homelessness prevention, rental assistance, case management, and supportive services for homeless individuals, families, and veterans. CAC has previously received over 30 prime federal grant awards, primarily from HUD and the Department of Veterans Affairs, to address homelessness and poverty in the region. The current award will run from May 1, 2024, to April 30, 2025, and is part of HUD's broader efforts to promote community-wide strategies to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and promoting self-sufficiency.
