Cumberland Healthnet

Cumberland Healthnet, a North Carolina–based nonprofit community development corporation, receives federal grant funding from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) as the prime recipient under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) to operate homeless housing and supportive services in the Fayetteville area. The organization holds 89% of its recent federal awards as a prime grant recipient, with one sub-award in the federal grant portfolio.

Cumberland Healthnet's federal customer base is concentrated among two agencies. The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development accounts for 7 of 9 awards, while the Department of Health and Human Services Health Resources and Services Administration placed 1 award (89% portfolio coverage). The organization's CoC grants run on calendar-year cycles, with award dates typically January 1 and ultimate completion dates of December 31 in the same calendar year. The most recent CoC grant award, dated January 1, 2026, carries a project-grant value of $174,424 through December 31, 2026. Prior years show a consistent CoC award pattern: grants in 2025, 2024, 2023, and 2022, all under the same CoC Program vehicle. Beyond the annual CoC stream, Cumberland Healthnet received a separate HHS Healthcare Systems Bureau project grant dated July 31, 2021 for local community-based workforce deployment to increase COVID-19 vaccine access, running through December 31, 2022.

Under the CoC Program's eligible components, Cumberland Healthnet delivers permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services, and homelessness prevention activities. A November 1, 2024 CoC award extending through February 28, 2027 positions one grant completion within the next twenty-four months. Combined federal obligation across all awards totals $1.8 million. The organization operates without federal contract vehicles and does not function as a defense or civilian federal contractor; its federal footprint is entirely grant-based, serving vulnerable homeless populations in the Fayetteville, North Carolina region through HUD and HHS community-focused funding streams.
