About the company
Friendship Service Center, Inc., doing business as Friendship Service Center Of New Britain, is a tax-exempt nonprofit organization based in New Britain, Connecticut that operates as a federal grant recipient, delivering emergency shelter, transitional housing, rapid rehousing, and supportive services to homeless individuals and families through the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267).
Friendship Service Center operates exclusively as a grant recipient (96% of recent awards are prime grants) with minimal subcontractor exposure (4%). The organization's entire federal footprint is rooted in HUD's Community Planning and Development office, which accounts for 69 of 73 awards in the source sample — effectively 96% of all recent grant activity. The remaining four awards reflect incidental engagement with the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration and the Department of Homeland Security U.S. Secret Service, neither of which represents material customer concentration. Recent representative CoC awards include a $761,537 grant awarded July 1, 2026 for permanent supportive housing and rapid rehousing; a $210,007 grant awarded July 1, 2026 for housing and supportive services; and a $196,458 grant awarded March 1, 2026, all supporting operations through June or February 2027. The organization also received an Economic Development Initiative grant from HUD (awarded August 13, 2024, with completion date August 31, 2032) for community development outcomes.
Activity has remained modest and flat — three awards in 2022 and 2023, six in 2024, three in 2025, and four in 2026. Three awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating a recompete cycle for the organization to renew funding streams. Friendship Service Center's grant sub-awards focus on targeted shelter and supportive-services components: window replacement at an emergency shelter's transitional living program (February 2026); staffing and operations for the Hope Connection Center drop-in facility (November 2024); and rapid-rehousing case management and financial assistance for ten families (November 2024). The organization's CoC Program experience spans permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, transitional housing operations, case management, Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS) administration, and homelessness prevention activities, with supplementary Veterans Affairs funding documented for specialized services to homeless veterans.
