The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $299,210 Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) project grant to Walkers Point Youth & Family Center Inc., a non-profit organization in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The grant, awarded on May 1, 2024, supports the organization's efforts to quickly rehouse homeless individuals and families while minimizing the trauma caused by homelessness. Walkers Point provides a comprehensive range of services, including rapid rehousing, homelessness prevention, case management, housing counseling, rental assistance, job training, and mental health/substance abuse treatment. As a subrecipient in partnership with the City of Milwaukee, Walkers Point has expanded its services to include emergency shelter for youth, housing relocation and stabilization services, and tenant-based rent assistance. This funding exemplifies HUD's ongoing support for Walkers Point's initiatives to combat homelessness and support at-risk youth in the Milwaukee community.
