On July 19, 2024, HUD released the CoC Builds NOFO. The NOFO (funding opportunity) is created to provide funding for new construction, acquisition/rehab to create new Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) units in the CoC. Applications are to be submitted to HUD by the collaborative applicant on behalf of the project through Grants.gov, by 11/21/2024 by 11:59:59pm. The NOFO asks CoCs to endorse one application per CoC. Therefore, organizations that have prepared applications for funding must also send them to the CoC for approval.
If there are multiple applications submitted to the CoC, the CoC select the application submitted to HUD by the Collaborative Applicant. The CoC asks that interested applicants send a letter of intent by the end of the day November 14, 2024. Applicants will also be encouraged to submit the full application to the CoC Board by November 18, 2024. If there are multiple applicants, the CoC Board will select the applicant and notify them by Wednesday November 20, 2024. Applications will be submitted to HUD, by the Collaborative Applicant, Thursday November 21, 2024.
ALL COMMUNICATIONS SHOULD BE SUBMIT TO THE TCHC SECRETARY AT [email protected]
Letter of Intent, application (in word format) and budget form should be sent to the TCHC CoC Secretary.
Applicants should not submit applications in Grants.gov prior to CoC approval.
Agencies can also receive the documents by requesting them from the TCHC Secretary via email.
The NOFO may be found at the following link CoC Builds Notice of Funding Opportunity | HUD.gov / U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Applicants are encouraged to read the NOFO thoroughly as there are many thresholds and details to be aware of prior to submission.
