County Of Mchenry

County Of McHenry, a U.S. government entity and Illinois county government based in Woodstock, operates as a federal grant recipient (69% of recent awards as prime recipient) across housing, homelessness, workforce, public health, and justice programs funded by HUD, the Department of Labor, SAMHSA, and the Department of Justice.

The county's footprint is dominated by HUD Community Planning and Development (CPD) programs. Of 125 total awards documented, 59 are CPD grants under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267), the Home Investment Partnerships Program (CFDA 14.239), and Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) programs. Representative prime-recipient work includes a $1.1 million CoC project grant (October 2025–September 2026) for permanent housing, rapid rehousing, and supportive services across three program components; a $537.6 thousand HOME formula grant (September 2025–September 2034) for affordable housing rehabilitation, homebuyer assistance, and rental assistance; and two additional CoC awards totaling $1.2 million for domestic-violence survivor homelessness intervention and general rehousing. The county also holds a Navy task order for $180 thousand on an Indefinite Delivery Contract (N0018912D0054) for facilities management.

Beyond housing, the county is an active sub-recipient on federal grants passed through state agencies. Recent sub-award activity includes workforce development funding from the Illinois Department of Commerce & Economic Opportunity under Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) formula grants; child-care block grants passed through the Illinois Department of Human Services; public health emergency preparedness and chronic-disease screening grants from the Illinois Department of Public Health (CDC funding); and criminal justice enforcement grants from the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority. The county also received a $1 million+ SAMHSA Transformative Change Grant (September 2024–September 2029) from the SAMHSA Center for Substance Abuse Treatment for dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) implementation in the county specialty court system, and a four-year assisted outpatient treatment (AOT) grant from the SAMHSA Center for Mental Health Services for serious mental illness intervention.

Customer concentration is heavily skewed to HUD CPD (59 awards), followed by the Department of Labor (8 awards), the Department of Justice Bureau of Justice Assistance (6 awards), and CDC (6 awards) — together covering 71% of recent awards. Combined potential value across all 125 awards stands at $723 thousand, but combined dollars obligated total $75.5 million, indicating that many awards carry formula allocations and multi-year obligations not fully captured in potential-value fields. Four awards reach completion inside the next twenty-four months and face grant-renewal or recompete cycles. The county operates no federal contracts and does not hold seats on GWACs or IDIQs; all federal engagement flows through direct grant awards and sub-recipient status on state pass-through programs.
