Casa

Casa is a non-profit organization headquartered in Raleigh, North Carolina, focused on addressing homelessness and supporting vulnerable populations. Registered in SAM.gov since 2005, the organization primarily receives federal grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), specializing in programs designed to quickly house homeless individuals and families while providing comprehensive supportive services. Casa operates as a tax-exempt corporate entity dedicated to community development and homeless prevention initiatives.

Casa's federal contract awards have been limited, with one notable contract from the Veterans Integrated Service Network 6 for a Homeless Veterans Program back rent award valued at $22,612.60 in May 2023. This specific contract was not set aside for any particular business type and was executed through a standard purchase order. The contract demonstrates Casa's direct involvement in supporting homeless veterans by providing financial assistance for back rent, helping to stabilize housing for a vulnerable population.

Casa's federal grant awards are extensive and primarily centered on homeless services and community development. The organization has consistently received Continuum of Care (CoC) Program grants from HUD, with awards ranging from $224,208 to support housing and supportive services for homeless individuals. These grants enable Casa to establish permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, and homeless prevention programs. Additionally, Casa has received Economic Development Initiative and Community Project Funding grants, with sub-awards from entities like Wake County Government and Enterprise Community Partners, Inc. The sub-awards have supported specific initiatives such as developing Hope Village at Method Apartments and building organizational sustainability. The grant awards consistently aim to minimize trauma for homeless individuals, promote access to mainstream programs, and optimize self-sufficiency within the community.
