FY 2026 Continuum of Care Competition and Youth Homelessness Demonstration Program Grants
WHAT DOES IT FUND? The Continuum of Care (CoC) program promotes a community-wide commitment to ending homelessness; provides funding for efforts to quickly rehouse homeless individuals, families, persons fleeing domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking, while minimizing the trauma and dislocation caused by homelessness; promotes access to and effective utilization of mainstream programs and programs funded with state or local resources; and optimizes self-sufficiency among homeless individuals and families. The Youth Homelessness Demonstration Program (YHDP) supports the development and implementation of a coordinated community approach to preventing and ending youth homelessness and sharing that experience with and mobilizing communities around the country toward the same end.
