Housing Services Mid Michigan

Housing Services Mid Michigan is a non-profit recipient of federal grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development, operating primarily under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) and Comprehensive Housing Counseling Program to deliver rapid rehousing, permanent supportive housing, homelessness prevention, housing counseling, and case management services to homeless and at-risk individuals and families in Eaton and Clinton counties in mid-Michigan.

Housing Services Mid Michigan is a tax-exempt non-profit organization headquartered in Charlotte, Michigan. The organization competes as a prime grant recipient for HUD funding (86% of awards) and also receives sub-awards from state intermediaries. The vendor's federal footprint spans four customer agencies, with the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development dominating the portfolio: 82 awards of the 100 total across all sources, representing the bulk of the $10.4 million in combined obligated dollars. The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Housing Federal Housing Commissioner accounts for nine additional awards under the Comprehensive Housing Counseling Program.

Housing Services Mid Michigan's capability delivery centers on five Continuum of Care program components: permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services only, and Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS) operations. Representative prime grant work includes a $196,252 Continuum of Care award effective June 1, 2026, through May 31, 2027; a $192,359 award for August 1, 2025, through July 31, 2026; and a $298,416 award covering July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025. The organization also received a $120,918 Comprehensive Housing Counseling grant (CFDA 14.267) with award date October 1, 2024, to provide pre-purchase home buying counseling, foreclosure prevention assistance, and housing education to households in the service area. In its sub-award role, Housing Services Mid Michigan receives funding from the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services under the Projects for Assistance in Transition from Homelessness (PATH) program and Consolidated Rapid Re-Housing initiatives, with sub-awards dated October 2025, October 2024, and October 2023. The organization also acts as the Housing Assessment and Resource Agency (HARA) administering Coordinated Entry functions through sub-awards from the Michigan State Housing Development Authority.

Recent activity has declined from the 2023 peak of 11 awards to six in 2025 and two in 2026 year-to-date, reflecting the annual cyclical nature of Continuum of Care grant cycles. Four awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months and face recompete exposure. Housing Services Mid Michigan leverages partnerships with the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services and the Michigan State Housing Development Authority to coordinate service delivery and expand access to programs such as the Michigan Housing Navigation Program and Michigan Homelessness Prevention Program across the two-county service area.
