In April 2023 HUD notified HOC that our agency has been awarded 25 stability vouchers. These targeted vouchers provide rental assistance to people experiencing or who are at-risk of homelessness, including survivors of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking, or human trafficking.

HOC will accept these vouchers in partnership with Montgomery County’s Continuum of Care, which will implement coordinated approaches that connect homeless outreach, permanent housing, health and supportive services to address homelessness among people in unsheltered settings.

In the state of Maryland, HUD awarded stability vouchers to HOC (25 vouchers) and Rockville Housing Enterprises (5 vouchers), with a total value of $4,870,352.
