2024 FL-511 Request for Proposals Continuum of Care Announcement

FISCAL YEAR: 2024
RELEASE DATE: Thursday, August 22, 2024

The Continuum of Care (CoC) Program is specifically designed to foster a community-wide commitment to eradicating homelessness. It provides essential funding for nonprofit providers, States, Indian Tribes or Tribally Designated Housing Entities, and local governments to rapidly rehouse individuals and families experiencing homelessness. Additionally, the program addresses the needs of individuals affected by domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking, and youth experiencing homelessness. Its overarching goal is to ensure that homeless individuals and families have access to and can effectively utilize mainstream programs, while also striving to enhance their self-sufficiency.

Local Applications Due September 10, 2024, by 7 PM CDT
