Continuum of care program

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awarded a $117,798 Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) Project Grant to Family Crisis Intervention CEN, a non-profit domestic shelter in Parkersburg, West Virginia. The grant will fund the organization's delivery of comprehensive services to address homelessness and support victims of domestic violence in Calhoun and Roane Counties over the period of December 1, 2024 to November 30, 2025. The services provided through this award include advocacy, protective services, and housing support for individuals and families experiencing domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, and homelessness. The organization has established strategic partnerships with state agencies to supplement the federal grant funding and expand its capacity to provide critical interventions aimed at minimizing trauma, promoting access to mainstream resources, and helping individuals and families achieve self-sufficiency.
