County Of Westchester

County Of Westchester, a U.S. local government entity headquartered in White Plains, New York, operates as a federal grant recipient across housing, transportation, social services, and public safety programs, with no federal contract prime awardee activity. The county holds 49% prime grant awards and 51% sub-grant awards (via New York State pass-through agencies and other state entities) across a portfolio of 1,013 total awards spanning 2005 to present. Federal grant work dominates the footprint; the source records one $6,469 firm fixed price purchase order from the Department of Justice Drug Enforcement Administration in October 2023 for unspecified law enforcement support services in New York.

The grant portfolio concentrates heavily in community development, homelessness intervention, and transit infrastructure. The Department of Housing and Urban Development Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development is the single largest customer (247 awards), anchored by repeated Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) grants for permanent supportive housing, transitional housing, rapid rehousing, and homeless management information systems. Representative HUD Continuum of Care awards include $15.610 million on June 1, 2026; $1.262 million on December 1, 2025; and $696 thousand on March 1, 2026. The county also holds $15.750 million in HUD homelessness and housing grants including a $7.750 million Lead Hazard Reduction Grant Program (CFDA 14.900) award on March 16, 2026 targeting lead-based paint control in pre-1960 housing, and a $1.027 million Home Investment Partnerships Program (CFDA 14.239) formula grant on September 25, 2025 for affordable housing development and preservation. The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families (133 awards) and Department of Transportation Federal Transit Administration (80 awards) rank second and fourth by award count. HHS/ACF awards appear predominantly as pass-through sub-awards via New York State's Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance and Office of Children and Family Services for child welfare, temporary assistance, and employment services. FTA awards fund capital transit improvements: $14.625 million for hybrid bus replacement (June 16, 2025), $6.8 million for bus procurement (June 10, 2025), $3.49 million for ADA pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure design (August 25, 2025), and multiple pavement and taxiway projects at White Plains Airport totaling over $27 million across airport improvement and infrastructure grants awarded July–September 2026.

Customer concentration by award count is led by HUD's Community Planning and Development office (247 awards, approximately 24% of the portfolio), followed by HHS/ACF (133 awards, 13%) and FEMA (119 awards, 12%). The Treasury Internal Revenue Service holds 12 awards with $30 thousand combined potential value, supporting a Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) grant program recipient role. The top five customers account for 64% of total awards. Activity has grown from 48 awards in 2022 to a peak of 184 in 2024, with 163 awards in 2025 and 105 year-to-date in 2026. Eighteen awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting potential recompete opportunity for HUD Continuum of Care and FTA transit awards. The county's sub-award footprint reflects routine pass-through relationships with New York State agencies (New York State Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance, New York State Office of Children and Family Services, NYS Department of Health, New York State Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services, and Department of Motor Vehicles) that distribute federal social services, workforce, health, and emergency management funding to county-administered programs. The combined dollars obligated across the portfolio total $1.7 billion, reflecting multi-year grant awards and federal funding flowing through local administration. Recent grant work includes a $733 thousand Comprehensive Community Mental Health Services for Children with Serious Emotional Disturbances award (CFDA 93.104) from HHS/SAMHSA on September 30, 2026 for a four-year educational single point of access program in Peekskill schools, and a $1 million Grants to Encourage Arrest Policies and Enforcement of Protection Orders award (CFDA 16.590) from the Department of Justice Office on Violence Against Women on October 1, 2025 for domestic violence and sexual assault response training.
