This federal Project Grant award of $102,019.00, provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267), is designed to support the development and implementation of a coordinated community approach to preventing and ending youth homelessness in the Hagerstown, Maryland area.
The grant funding will be used by the prime awardee, Hagerstown Goodwill Industries, Inc., to provide a range of eligible activities, including permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention. These efforts aim to quickly rehouse homeless youth, defined as households where no person is over the age of 24, while minimizing the trauma and dislocation caused by homelessness. The grant's expected outcomes include a decrease in the number of youth experiencing homelessness, as measured by performance indicators such as length of time homeless, returns to homelessness, and exits to permanent housing.
