2024-25 Homeless Housing and Services Notice of Funding Opportunity

Date

On July 31st, 2024, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) released the FY 2024 - 2025 Continuum of Care (CoC) Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO). The intent is to fund programs that move people from homelessness into permanent housing. 

The local competition for FY 2024 -2025 CoC funding is now open.

The deadline for project application submission is Monday, September 9th, 11:59pm. This includes ESNAPS application and survey responses. 

Every year the Clackamas County CoC uses score cards for our local competition. This year, narrative responses in the score cards will be collected through a survey. Surveys may be requested from Raina Smith-Roller at rsmithroller@clackamas.us.

All application materials will be reviewed by a scoring committee. Final approval will be made by Clackamas County’s Housing Services Steering Committee, the governing body for the CoC.

Eligible projects include Rapid Rehousing (RRH), Joint Component Transitional Housing-Rapid Rehousing (TH-RRH), Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH), and Supportive Services only. This year applicants are able to:  

  1. Expand an existing program by adding beds, services, etc. to an existing project
  2. Consolidate two projects with the same project type during the application process
  3. Apply for a “transitions grant” to help agencies move toward a different program type (ie Transitional housing to Rapid Rehousing) slowly over the course of a year
  4. Apply for a new, reallocated project
  5. Apply for a new bonus project: amount to be determined
  6. Apply for a renewal project

All agencies planning to or considering applying are encouraged to read the NOFO in full, and to regularly visit the HUD CoC Competition website.
