The Ywca Of Monterey County

The YWCA of Monterey County, doing business as Ywca, is a nonprofit organization based in Salinas, California, that delivers domestic violence and homelessness services to federal agencies and sub-recipients as a grant recipient (39% of recent awards) and sub-recipient (61% of recent awards). The organization does not hold federal contracts; all federal engagement flows through grants under the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Continuum of Care program and domestic violence and child victim services programs administered by the California Office of Emergency Services as the prime grantee.

Ywca's federal footprint centers on two grant streams. As a direct recipient under HUD's CoC program (CFDA 14.267), Ywca has received four consecutive annual project grants to establish and operate housing and supportive services for homeless individuals and families in the Monterey County region. The most recent award, dated December 1, 2025, carries $700,078 in potential value through November 30, 2026; the prior award from December 1, 2024 carried $653,404 through November 30, 2025. Eligible activities under CoC include permanent supportive housing for persons with disabilities, rapid rehousing programs, transitional housing, case management and supportive services, and Homeless Management Information Systems operations. As a sub-recipient under awards from California's Office of Emergency Services, Ywca delivers domestic violence shelter, permanent housing, trauma-informed supportive services, and therapeutic treatment services for children victimized by abuse and neglect. The source lists fourteen sub-awards flowing from the Office of Emergency Services, distributed across the Department of Justice Office for Victims of Crime, the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families and Administration on Children, Youth and Families, spanning funding periods from February 2024 through December 2025.

Customer concentration is narrow and non-federal in character. The top four funding lines account for 96% of recent awards by count: the Department of Justice Office of Justice Programs Victims of Crime (10 sub-awards), the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families (4 awards), the Department of Housing and Urban Development Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development (4 prime grants), and the Department of the Army Materiel Command (3 awards carrying $5 thousand combined potential value). Dollar concentration tracks heavily to HUD's CoC grants; the source reports $3.9 million in combined obligated dollars across all awards but only $5 thousand in combined potential value, reflecting that the CoC and victim-services awards carry large realized disbursements rather than open option periods. Activity peaked in 2024 with nine awards and has moderated in 2025 and 2027. Only one award faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal recompete exposure in the near term.
