Please see the message below from our partners at CT Department of Housing.
The State of Connecticut would like to invite you to a virtual question and answer session to learn more about our newly posted NOFA (Notice of Funding Availability) for the Recovery Housing Program (RHP).
Two upcoming information sessions will be held. See links to join below.
Connecticut’s RHP funds will be utilized to support individuals in recovery onto a path to self-sufficiency. By providing stable housing to support recovery, the state’s RHP funds will support efforts for independent living and will be used to develop or maintain housing for individuals in recovery from substance abuse disorders.
The amount of funding to be made available under this NOFA is approximately $6.5 million. Departmental discretion for award amounts will be based on project impact.
