Interfaith Community Services, Inc.

Interfaith Community Services, Inc., a tax-exempt nonprofit organization headquartered in Escondido, California, operates as a prime recipient on federal grants and a delivery-order performer on VA contract vehicles, delivering transitional housing, recuperative care, and supportive services for homeless populations and veterans in the San Diego area and select other regions. The organization receives no set-aside designations across its federal footprint and competes in full-and-open procurements; its federal awards span contract vehicles with the Department of Veterans Affairs, federal grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (Continuum of Care Program), and matching grants from the Internal Revenue Service and the Department of Labor.

Interfaith's capability portfolio centers on three core service areas: healthcare for homeless veterans recuperative care and transitional housing, community-wide homelessness prevention and permanent supportive housing under the HUD Continuum of Care program, and financial and workforce development services for low-income populations. On the VA contract side, Veterans Integrated Service Network 22 issued a $2.1 million firm fixed-price delivery order on September 26, 2026, for Healthcare for Homeless Veterans recuperative care transitional housing services to veterans in community-based facilities serving VA San Diego Healthcare System, with performance through September 25, 2027. This delivery order sits under a $8.4 million indefinite-delivery single-award vehicle running through September 2028, which has generated four delivery orders totaling roughly $5.8 million since award in September 2023. Interfaith also holds recurring HUD Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) grants; recent CoC awards include $770,845 (July 2026), $427,920 (December 2025), and $348,180 (December 2024) for establishing and operating permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, and supportive services for homeless individuals. Separately, Interfaith received $133,573 from the Internal Revenue Service in October 2025 under the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Matching Grant Program (CFDA 21.009) to provide free tax return preparation and filing services for low- to moderate-income populations, with subrecipient capacity permitted.

The organization dominates with HUD as a prime recipient: 84 of 156 tracked awards (54% of total award count) flow through HUD's Continuum of Care program, though dollar concentration tilts heavily to VA programs. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 22 accounts for 27 awards representing the full $38.1 million in combined potential value — the entirety of tracked contract potential across the portfolio. Distinct customer agencies total twelve, including the Department of Labor Veterans Employment and Training Service (8 awards) and the Internal Revenue Service (8 awards), but the VA's VISN 22 organization anchors the dollar value entirely. Five awards with ultimate completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $2.1 million, presenting moderate recompete exposure concentrated in the VA vehicle.

Across SCI-reportable prime federal service contracts, Interfaith invoiced $2.8 million from fiscal 2023 through 2025, with $715 thousand in FY2023 (9.2 FTEs), $939 thousand in FY2024 (9.6 FTEs), and $1.1 million in FY2025 (4.5 FTEs). Government-paid hourly rates on these contracts ranged from a 10th percentile of $29.79 per hour to a median of $42.01 per hour and a 90th percentile of $62.25 per hour, reflecting entry-level and mid-level supportive services and care coordination staffing. Across SCI-reportable prime contracts, Interfaith delivered services in-house with zero subcontractor hour engagement, indicating a fully in-house delivery model on federal service work. At the grant level, Interfaith functions as both prime recipient and subrecipient; it receives Continuum of Care grants from HUD as prime recipient and holds six recorded grant sub-awards spanning emergency solutions grants and shelter operations in North County San Diego, issued between January 2022 and November 2025. On VA contract work, Interfaith similarly delivers services without subcontractor engagement, building delivery teams internally to meet VA San Diego Healthcare System recuperative care and transitional housing demand.
