HUD’s Continuum of Care program provide critical support systems for those who are either experiencing or nearing homelessness. These CoCs are ecosystems which encompass the staffs and safety nets that provide homeless services within a given region. These essential lifelines have been in jeopardy in the past few months due to funding reprioritization from the federal government, potentially affecting thousands of Texans.
On this episode of A Little Louder, Hope Rodgers and Billy Streu from Texas Homeless Network join the show to talk through what CoCs actually do and what ground they cover, the issues with their Notice of Funding Opportunities, and where these service providers all stand now.
We also discuss the critical coalitional work that THN shares with other partners including Texas Housers to achieve their goal of ending homelessness in Texas.
As always, you can listen to “What’s Happening With Texas’ Continuums of Care?” below or wherever you get your podcasts.
