HUD FY2014 Continuum of Care Program Competition: Strategies for Continued Success

On Friday, Sept. 19, 2014, USICH's Richard Cho, Lindsay Knotts and Jay Melder hosted a webinar for communities on strategies for continued success in responding to The Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for the Fiscal Year (FY) 2014 Funds in the FY 2013 - FY 2014 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program Competition (FY 2014 CoC Program Funding Notice).

Through this competition, HUD will award $1.83 billion in funds for FY 2014. The FY 2014 CoC Program Funding Notice carries forward and continues the policy priorities outlined in combined FY 2013-FY 2014 CoC Program Competition NOFA, which are focused on accelerating progress on Opening Doors: Federal Strategic Plan to Prevent and End Homelessness.

Participants in our webinar learned more about the results of the FY 2013 competition, the unique aspects of the FY 2014 CoC Program funding competition, the permanent supportive housing bonus to serve people experiencing chronic homelessness, and tips for reallocations and prioritization.

The video and slides are available. Visit http://usich.gov/media_center/videos_and_webinars/hud-fy2014-coc-program-competition-strategies-for-continued-success-1 to download them and share with your colleagues.
