AI Contract Overview
The FY 2026 Continuum of Care Competition and Youth Homelessness Demonstration Program Grants aim to address homelessness through comprehensive community-focused strategies. The Continuum of Care (CoC) Program supports a broad commitment to ending homelessness by funding nonprofit organizations, state and local governments, and Tribal entities to rapidly rehouse individuals and families experiencing homelessness. It specifically targets vulnerable populations such as those fleeing domestic violence and youth, while emphasizing minimizing trauma and displacement. The program also encourages the use and integration of mainstream and locally funded resources to enhance service delivery and promote self-sufficiency among those affected. Complementing this, the Youth Homelessness Demonstration Program (YHDP) focuses on creating coordinated community approaches to prevent and end homelessness specifically among youth aged 24 and younger, including unaccompanied and parenting youth. This program fosters innovation and experience-sharing among communities nationwide to build sustainable solutions for youth homelessness. Both initiatives are administered by the Department of Housing and Urban Development and provide grant funding opportunities to support their goals, promoting systemic collaboration, rapid rehousing, and long-term stability for vulnerable populations.
