About the company
Lantern Community Services, Inc., a New York–based nonprofit organization, operates as a federal grant recipient providing comprehensive housing and supportive services to individuals and families experiencing homelessness, with 76% of recent awards in the prime-recipient role across federal housing and emergency-management programs. The organization has received continuous funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) since 2010 and holds a tax-exempt corporate structure focused on community-based homelessness intervention.
Lantern's capability portfolio centers on evidence-based housing and supportive services delivered in the New York City metropolitan area. The $383,630 Project Grant from HUD's CoC Program (effective November 1, 2025, through October 31, 2026) funds rapid rehousing, permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, transitional housing, homelessness prevention, case management, mental health and substance abuse treatment, and job training. Prior CoC awards from HUD (November 1, 2024, through October 31, 2025; November 1, 2023, through October 31, 2024; November 1, 2022, through October 31, 2023; and November 1, 2021, through October 31, 2022) follow the same annual cycle and funding structure, with the CoC Program supporting the five core components of permanent housing, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services only, and Homeless Management Information Systems. As a sub-recipient, Lantern has received funding from the New York State Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services (multiple awards in 2023 and 2024, including management costs and operational projects) and from the National Foundation for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for equitable vaccination-coverage support to community-based organizations (April 2023).
Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward HUD's Community Planning and Development office, which accounts for 20 of 29 total awards. Federal Emergency Management Agency Headquarters Financial Assistance Awards provide 6 awards; the Department of Agriculture's National Institute of Food and Agriculture provides 2 awards; and the Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention provides 1 award. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $9.4 million. Activity has been episodic rather than steady — one award in 2021, one in 2022, seven in 2023, two in 2024, and one in 2025 — suggesting cyclical CoC program cycles and occasional cross-sector emergency-management or public-health sub-awards. Only one award faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating minimal recompete pressure in the near term.
