HUD has announced the 2008 McKinney Continuum of Care Awards. Click to see the awards for the Three County Continuum, Berkshire Continuum, and the Springfield Continuum.
Many of the awards are renewal funding for ongoing programs. In Springfield, the award funds two new programs: 11 units of permanent supportive housing (Mental Health Association), and support for the Homeless Resource Center (Friends of the Homeless) and the 32 units of permanent supportive housing that will be part of that project. I confess that I don’t know as much about the impact of the grants in the other CoCs, but it appears that the Three-County CoC has received a new grant to support its Homeless Management Information System (HMIS).
Congratulations to all the grantees.
