CoC Program

Every year, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) makes available federal resources for homeless programming to communities around the country through its Continuum of Care (CoC) Program and its annual CoC Competition. Continuums access these funds by completing consolidated applications on behalf of the federally funded homeless programs in their CoC. For the Ohio BoSCoC, the Collaborative Applicant (ODSA) and COHHIO facilitate this process and submit the consolidated application. Any organization located within the 80 counties of the Ohio BoSCoC that wishes to access new or renewal CoC Program funds must participate in local homeless planning efforts and the annual BoSCoC CoC Competition.

CoC staff communicate with Ohio BoSCoC members and share updates and funding opportunities primarily via their email listerserv. If you would like to receive Ohio BoSCoC communications, email ohioboscoc@cohhio.org to request to be added to the listserv.
