Continuum of Care (CoC) Builds (CoCBuilds) Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO)

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has made $175 million available through first-of-its-kind funding for new construction, acquisition, or rehabilitation of permanent supportive housing. Through one-time awards under the Continuum of Care (CoC) program, the CoCBuilds Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) will enable communities to develop new units of rental housing with supportive services for people experiencing homelessness. This NOFO ensures that funding will benefit communities of varying demographics and population sizes by setting aside $65 million for CoCs that are located in states with populations of fewer than 2.5 million people. Applications are due November 21, 2024.

Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) is non time-limited rental housing in which supportive services are available to assist individuals with a disability who are experiencing homelessness - and to assist families where at least one household member has a disability and is experiencing homelessness - to live independently. PSH addresses both the immediate need for housing and the underlying factors contributing to homelessness, leading to better outcomes for individuals and communities alike.
