About A Community Of Friends
A Community Of Friends Inc., a Los Angeles-based nonprofit organization and community development corporation, acts as a federal grant recipient under the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267), delivering housing acquisition, rehabilitation, rental assistance, case management, and homeless management information systems (HMIS) support to homeless individuals and families in Los Angeles.
The organization's federal footprint is concentrated exclusively with HUD's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development, which accounts for 47 of 50 recent awards (94% of the prime recipient portfolio). A Community Of Friends has received annual Project Grant awards from HUD since at least 2022, with recent grants totaling $218,148 (May 2026), $192,130 (May 2024), and comparable annual awards in the 2022–2023 cycle. Each grant runs a twelve-month performance period and funds eligible CoC Program components including permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services only, and HMIS infrastructure. The organization also acts as a sub-recipient on grant-funded capacity-building initiatives: a $350,000 sub-award from an unspecified federal grantor (dated December 2025) supports organizational sustainability across housing, property management, and asset management departments; an $80,000 sub-award (September 2025) funds implementation of a private-financing model for permanent supportive housing; and an earlier sub-award (January 2026) supports transition to in-house property management and the Facilities Supervisor position for the Estrella Azul 80-unit permanent supportive housing redevelopment.
Combined dollars obligated across all fifty awards total $5.6 million. Activity has been modest but consistent — one award annually in 2022, 2023, and 2024, then three awards in 2025 and two in 2026 — with only one award currently exposed to completion and recompete within the next twenty-four months. The organization's mission centers on minimizing trauma and dislocation among homeless individuals and families while promoting housing stability and self-sufficiency in Los Angeles through coordinated housing and supportive services delivery.
