About the company
Northwest Assistance Ministries, a Houston-based tax-exempt nonprofit organization, is a recipient of federal grants supporting homelessness prevention, housing, and victim services in Texas, operating as a prime grant recipient (76% of recent awards) and as a sub-recipient on state-administered federal programs. The organization receives funding exclusively through federal grants rather than contracts, with no federal contract prime or sub awards in the source data.
Northwest Assistance Ministries' customer concentration is dominated by housing and social services funders. The top three agencies account for 94% of recent awards: the Department of Housing and Urban Development, Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development (25 awards), the Department of Justice, Office of Justice Programs, Victims of Crime (4 awards), and the Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (2 awards). HUD's Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) anchors the majority of the organization's prime grant portfolio, with five consecutive annual CoC project grants running from October 2021 through September 2026. The most recent HUD CoC award, effective October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2026, carries $1,031,655 and supports permanent supportive housing and rapid rehousing for persons with disabilities, transitional housing, supportive services, Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS), and homelessness prevention services across the Houston area.
As a sub-recipient, Northwest Assistance Ministries delivers victim advocacy and homelessness diversion services through Texas state-administered grants. The organization operates the Family Violence Center, which provides 24-hour crisis hotlines, personal advocacy, case management, emergency shelter, and supportive services to victims of family violence and sexual assault in Harris County and rural West Texas under sub-awards from the Texas Governor's Office and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission. A November 2025 sub-award from the Texas Governor's Office funds the Family Violence Center; an October 2025 sub-award funds the Diversion Program serving a minimum of 65 households annually at risk of or experiencing homelessness, with case management and emergency financial assistance to prevent entry into shelter or unsheltered living. The organization also received a February 2024 sub-award for family violence shelter and supportive services from the Texas Health and Human Services Commission.
Activity has remained modest but consistent — two awards in 2021, one in 2022, two in 2023, three in 2024, and four in 2025 — with only one award (the HUD CoC Program award effective September 30, 2026) reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. Combined dollars obligated across all 33 awards total $16.1 million.
