About Homeward
Homeward, a nonprofit organization based in North Chesterfield, Virginia, operates as a prime recipient of federal grants focused on homeless services and youth homelessness prevention, with 94% of recent awards as direct grant recipient and 6% as sub-recipient. The organization receives funding exclusively from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development, serving the greater Richmond region.
Homeward's federal footprint centers on two primary grant programs under HUD. The Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) forms the backbone of activity, supporting permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services, Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS) implementation, and homelessness prevention. Representative CoC awards include a $415,693 project grant effective July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, a $170,594 project grant with the same period, a $106,470 project grant running October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026, and multiple additional CoC grants dating back to 2022. Homeward also participates in the Youth Homelessness Demonstration Program (YHDP), which targets unaccompanied and pregnant or parenting youth experiencing homelessness through a coordinated community approach. YHDP awards include a project grant running October 1, 2023 through September 30, 2025, and a second YHDP grant with the same period extending to March 31, 2025.
Customer concentration is extreme and singular. The source data shows 96% of 72 awards funded by HUD's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development (57 awards), with 12 remaining awards from the Department of Labor Veterans Employment and Training Service. Combined obligated dollars across all awards total $8.5 million, reflecting the modest scale typical of local nonprofit homelessness services. As a sub-recipient, Homeward received funding from the City of Richmond in October 2025 for HCIS/HMIS access supporting HOPWA programs and ESG cost offsets.
Activity has varied year to year—four awards in 2022, eight in 2023, four in 2024, seven in 2025, and three in 2026 through July—with five awards reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing recompete exposure for CoC and YHDP renewal rounds. Homeward's work encompasses rental assistance, case management, housing relocation and stabilization services, and program operating costs, all directed toward quickly rehousing homeless individuals and families while minimizing trauma and promoting self-sufficiency within the local community.
