FAQs Issued for HUD Service Coordinator NOFO
(May 14, 2024) On May 7th, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) posted its Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) related to the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for grants for Service Coordinators in Multifamily Housing, applications for which are due May 23rd.
The FAQs are replete with questions posed by LeadingAge and its housing provider members and give insight and guidance on questions that will help HUD Multifamily providers submit applications for the $40 million HUD is making available for new Service Coordinator grants in this round of funding. For example, the document explores whether software expenses are an eligible program cost and whether applicants need a community needs assessment survey for this NOFO.
LeadingAge advocates vigorously for new Service Coordinator grant funds from Congress and is pleased that HUD has been able to make this $40 million available to fund about 160 three-year Service Coordination programs. This is the first new Service Coordinator funding opportunity in 10 years.
The FAQs can be found at the bottom of HUD’s “Service Coordinators in Multifamily Housing Discretionary FY24” page here. Access LeadingAge resources on the Service Coordinator NOFO here.
