Continuum of Care Funding Opportunities
Each year, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) awards funding to Continuums of Care (CoC) through a competitive application process. Each CoC must designate a “collaborative applicant” to submit applications to HUD on behalf of the entire CoC.
The Coalition for the Homeless as the collaborative applicant for the Louisville/Jefferson County CoC, is responsible for coordinating local competitions and submitting a Consolidated Application (per funding opportunity) to HUD on behalf of the CoC. Individual projects requesting funding, both new and renewal, submit information directly to the Coalition for the Homeless. A Consolidated Application consists of three parts: a CoC Application completed by the Coalition for the Homeless responding to questions relating to system-wide initiatives and performance; individual project applications; and a “priority listing” of projects in rank order based on selection criteria set by the Louisville/Jefferson County CoC Board of Directors.
We previously accepted inquiries for new projects under the 2024/2025 NOFO. New project inquiries must have been submitted no later than Friday, July 19, 2024. Organizations that have not previously received CoC Program funding are encouraged to apply. If your agency is interested in applying for a new project in the FY24/25 CoC funding competition and did not submit a new project inquiry, please contact Brandi Scott.
As of Friday, August 23, 2024 the Louisville/Jefferson County Continuum of Care officially began accepting applications for the 2024/2025 CoC NOFO.
Please direct any questions to Brandi Scott at bscott@louhomeless.org.
2024 Continuum of Care Annual Funding Competition Information
Applicants applying under the 2024 CoC NOFO must submit completed project applications, including for renewal projects and new projects, via HUD’s online application platform known as e-snaps. Applications must be submitted by Monday, September 23, 2024.
Submitted applications will go to the Coalition for the Homeless for review and scoring and can be returned for additional edits. If selected through the local competition, the Coalition for the Homeless will submit your final application on your behalf to HUD by HUD’s final deadline of October 30, 2024.
Please see the HUD Continuum of Care Program Competition landing page for e-snaps guidance and technical resources.
A Q&A Session for new project applicant will be held on Friday, August 30, 2024 at 1:00pm. Register for this session here.
In addition to the e-snaps application, additional documents are required for project scoring and ranking. Please see this checklist of documents and submission deadlines. Full details are below.
