The Association For Community Housing Solutions

The Association For Community Housing Solutions, a San Diego-based nonprofit organization, receives federal project grants exclusively from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development under the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267) to deliver permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services, and Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS) for homeless individuals and families in the San Diego metropolitan area.

The vendor operates as a prime recipient on 100% of its federal award footprint — 35 CoC Program grants from HUD's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development spanning from 2007 to the present, with no subrecipient activity or federal contract work. The organization's funding is narrowly concentrated; HUD accounts for all 35 awards across the portfolio. Recent awards include a $1,023,431 project grant effective November 1, 2025 through October 31, 2026, and a $240,196 project grant effective July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. Each award funds the five statutory CoC program components: permanent housing (including permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities and rapid rehousing), transitional housing, supportive services only, HMIS, and homelessness prevention. Specific service delivery encompasses housing placement and stabilization, short- and medium-term rental assistance, case management, mental health and substance abuse treatment referrals, job training, and homelessness prevention initiatives.

Activity has been modest and stable over the past five years — three awards in 2022, declining to one or two annually through 2026 — with a combined obligation of $9.8 million across the full portfolio. Two awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating a recompete window. The vendor has not pursued federal contract vehicles, GSA Schedules, GWACs, or IDIQs; its federal footprint is entirely grant-based and restricted to the San Diego CoC funding stream under a single federal agency. This profile is characteristic of community action agencies and nonprofit housing organizations that receive recurring CoC allocations to operate local housing and services infrastructure rather than compete for broader federal procurement.
