The Huntington City Mission will utilize these federal funds to establish and operate projects addressing homelessness in Huntington, West Virginia. Eligible activities funded through this award may include CoC planning costs, acquisition and rehabilitation of real property for housing or supportive services, new construction, rental assistance, case management, operating costs, and fiscal control through a Unified Funding Agency. As a nonprofit domestic shelter provider, the organization leverages HUD's CoC funding to deliver integrated homeless services that promote self-sufficiency among individuals and families experiencing homelessness and facilitate access to mainstream community resources and programs.
