Interval House

Interval House, a tax-exempt nonprofit domestic violence shelter organization based in Long Beach, California, receives federal grant funding as a prime recipient and sub-recipient under homelessness and victim services programs administered by the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Department of Justice, and allied federal agencies. The organization does not hold federal contracts and operates entirely within the grant funding ecosystem.

Interval House delivers emergency shelter, transitional housing, rapid rehousing, rental assistance, case management, mental health counseling, legal assistance, and job training services to homeless individuals and families, with particular emphasis on domestic violence survivors. The organization operates shelters, administers tenant-based rental assistance programs, provides wraparound support services addressing trauma and economic self-sufficiency, and coordinates with local housing and victim-services coalitions across multiple Southern California jurisdictions. Services are delivered in Long Beach, Garden Grove, Santa Ana, and Westminster, California.

The funding footprint centers on two federal grant programs. HUD's Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) anchors the majority of Interval House's prime grant work, with two recent project grants awarded on August 1, 2026: a $1,302,437 award funding permanent housing, transitional housing, rapid rehousing, and supportive services through July 31, 2027, and a $339,667 award supporting the same program components through July 31, 2027. The Department of Justice Office on Violence Against Women has awarded Interval House a $550,000 project grant (awarded October 1, 2022, extending through September 30, 2025) for transitional housing assistance to survivors of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking under the Transitional Housing Assistance for Victims of Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, Stalking, or Sexual Assault program. Across the past five years, Interval House has received 13 prime awards in 2023, 23 in 2024, and 22 in 2025, with combined dollars obligated across all awards (prime and sub combined) of $29.4 million. The organization serves six distinct federal customer agencies.

However, the majority of Interval House's federal footprint consists of sub-recipient grants routed through state and local intermediaries. Sub-awards account for 61 of the organization's 100 tracked awards. The largest pass-through prime grantee is California's Office of Emergency Services, which has flowed multiple federal victim services and domestic violence prevention grants to Interval House covering emergency shelter expansion, culturally appropriate victim services for underserved populations, intimate partner violence prevention, transitional and short-term housing assistance, and advocacy services to child and youth victims of crime. The City of Long Beach has awarded Interval House sub-grants funding domestic violence transitional housing, rapid rehousing, and shelter operations, and the City of Westminster has contracted Interval House to administer tenant-based rental assistance for homeless or at-risk households. The Corporation for National and Community Service has designated Interval House as an AmeriCorps subgrantee. Two prime or sub awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal recompete exposure.

Interval House does not compete on federal contracts, IDIQs, or GWACs. The organization's federal presence is exclusively grant-based and locally oriented, anchored to HUD's Continuum of Care funding and flowing through state victim services and municipal housing authorities. This posture reflects the organization's mission focus on direct service delivery to homeless and domestic violence populations rather than federal contracting pursuit.
