HUD announced that the Manchester Continuum of Care was awarded $1,203,458 to build systems to end youth homelessness. Manchester will be provided with funding and technical assistance to develop and implement a coordinated community approach to youth homelessness that matches the needs, assets, constraints and preferences of our community.

Manchester Stakeholders and The Youth Success Project (New Hampshire’s Youth Action Board) will work with HUD technical assistance to develop and implement a coordinated community plan (CCP) to prevent and end youth homelessness in Manchester.

The MCoC participated in HUD Technical Assistance on Partnering with People with Lived Experience of Homelessness. This three-month community workshop had a team of Manchester Continuum of Care members working toward building inclusive decision-making bodies, provide tangible strategies to connect with culturally responsive grassroots and community-based organizations, as well as people with lived expertise. This TA supported the MCoC in developing an action plan to continue to provide equitable engagement to amplify the voices of, and empower those most impacted, so our systems reflect the communities we serve.
