About the company
Tompkins Community Action, Inc. (doing business as Tompkins Community Action) is a tax-exempt nonprofit organization based in Ithaca, New York that acts as a federal grant recipient, operating primarily under the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Continuum of Care (COC) program and the Department of Health and Human Services Head Start program. The organization does not hold federal contracts; it operates exclusively as a grant recipient, with 86% of recent awards held as prime recipient status and 14% as sub-recipient work.
Tompkins Community Action's federal footprint is concentrated in homelessness prevention and early childhood education. The organization receives recurring annual COC awards from HUD's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development to establish and operate permanent housing (including permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities), rapid rehousing, transitional housing, and supportive services for homeless individuals and families. Recent representative COC prime awards include grants with award dates of November 1, 2025 (completion October 31, 2026), July 1, 2025 (completion June 30, 2026), and July 1, 2024 (completion June 30, 2025), all designated as Project Grants. The organization also holds a Head Start and Early Head Start Project Grant from HUD's Office of Head Start awarded April 1, 2025 with a completion date of March 31, 2030, supporting early childhood development services. As a sub-recipient, Tompkins Community Action receives Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) funding passed through the New York Department of State, focused on alleviating poverty among low-income New Yorkers through social service programs designed to increase family income and quality of life; multiple CSBG sub-awards were issued in October 2023 and October 2022.
Customer concentration is extreme. HUD's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development accounts for 48 of 64 total awards in the source, with the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families (comprising multiple sub-agencies) accounting for 15 awards combined. The top customers represent 98% of award count. Combined obligated dollars across all awards total $114 million. Activity has remained modest and stable across the past five years — four to nine awards annually — with one award (combined potential value not specified in source) reaching ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months.
