CoC Builds NOFO
On July 22, 2024, The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) released its first Continuum of Care Builds (CoC Builds) Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO). The Continuum of Care (CoC) Builds (CoC Builds) NOFO targets efforts within CoC geographic areas to address and reduce persons experiencing homelessness by adding new units of permanent supportive housing (PSH) through new construction, acquisition, or rehabilitation through one-time CoC Builds awards under the CoC Program. Through the CoC Builds NOFO, HUD is encouraging CoCs to leverage funds provided for the construction, acquisition, or rehabilitation of new PSH units with other funding sources to maximize the amount of housing that can directed to meeting the needs of individuals and families experiencing homelessness.
There is $175 million available nationally for these one-time awards to fund new construction, acquisition, or rehabilitation of permanent supportive housing for individuals and families experiencing homelessness. In addition to funding the development of new units, up to 20 percent of each award may be used for other eligible and renewable CoC Program activities for Permanent Supportive Housing projects, including supportive services and operating costs, and no more than 10 percent of an award may be used for project administration.
