County Of Greene

County Of Greene, doing business as County Office, is a U.S. local government entity based in Waynesburg, Pennsylvania, that serves as a federal grant recipient and sub-recipient across housing, homelessness prevention, community development, and addiction treatment programs. The county operates almost exclusively in the grant space rather than federal contracts; it holds no prime contract vehicles and competes for project grants from HUD, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the Department of Justice, the Appalachian Regional Commission, and the Department of Health and Human Services.

The county's footprint splits nearly evenly between prime grant awards (66 of 129 total awards, 51%) and sub-awards from state pass-through agencies (63 awards, 49%), with combined obligated dollars of $21.5 million across recent activity. The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development dominates the award count at 51 awards covering the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267), which funds permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services, and homeless management information systems in Greene County. Representative HUD COC awards include a $234,164 project grant (award date June 1, 2026, performance through May 31, 2027), a $206,424 grant (award date October 1, 2025, performance through September 30, 2026), and a $200,607 grant (award date June 1, 2024, performance through May 31, 2025). Beyond HUD, the county holds prime grants under the Department of Justice Bureau of Justice Assistance Treatment Court Discretionary Grant Program (CFDA 16.585) — a $750,000 award (October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2028) to enhance the Greene County Adult Drug Treatment Court through staffing, evidence-based assessment, treatment services, and peer support — and the U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Housing Service Rural Housing Preservation Grant Program (CFDA 10.433), a $110,864 award (July 24, 2025 through August 24, 2026) for housing rehabilitation in low-income rural households. The county also received a $1.395 million Community Facilities Loans and Grants award from USDA Rural Utilities Service (CFDA 10.766, March 10, 2023 through March 10, 2025) for rural community facility construction and improvement, and a $145,000 Appalachian Area Development grant from the Appalachian Regional Commission (CFDA 23.002, October 1, 2024 through October 1, 2025) for community capacity building.

As a sub-recipient, the county receives federal funding passed through the Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs, Pennsylvania Department of Human Services, the Crime and Delinquency Commission, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, and the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture. Sub-award work includes substance abuse and mental health treatment (CFDA 93.959 and related SAMHSA programs), child welfare and family preservation services (CFDA 93.556, 93.669), victim services under the Victims of Crime Act, emergency food assistance (TEFAP), bridge and infrastructure repair, and addiction treatment programs for incarcerated populations using medication-assisted therapies (buprenorphine, naltrexone, vivitrol). The Department of Health and Human Services Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration accounts for 14 sub-awards, and the Administration for Children and Families accounts for 12 sub-awards.

Award activity shows modest but steady volume — 15 awards in 2022, 15 in 2023, 18 in 2024, declining to 7 in each of 2025 and 2026. Only one award carries an ultimate completion date within the next twenty-four months, creating minimal recompete exposure in the near term. The county's federal engagement is embedded in its core governance function as a regional service-delivery administrator in rural Appalachia, where it leverages both prime grant awards and pass-through sub-awards to fund local housing, criminal justice, public health, and infrastructure priorities.
