As a public housing authority and established prime recipient of HUD homelessness intervention funding, the Huntington West Virginia Housing Authority leverages CoC grants to deliver coordinated services designed to transition homeless individuals and families into stable housing while minimizing trauma and dislocation. This award represents one component of the Authority's broader federal portfolio, which includes sustained funding across HUD's Public Housing Capital Fund and Public Housing Operating Fund programs supporting 855 public housing units. The CoC Program funding enables the Authority to continue community-wide coordination efforts to achieve self-sufficiency and reduce chronic homelessness in the region.
