CoC Builds

The Housing & Homeless Coalition of Central New York (HHC) is releasing the following Request for Proposals in response to HUD’s CoC Builds Notice of Funding Opportunity.

The Continuum of Care (CoC) Builds (CoCBuilds) 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 CoCBuilds awards under the CoC Program. Through the CoCBuilds NOFO, HUD is encouraging CoCs to leverage funds provided for construction, acquisition, or rehabilitation of new PSH units with other funding sources to maximize the amount of housing that can be directed to meeting the needs of individuals and families experiencing homelessness. PSH is permanent housing in which supportive services are provided to assist individuals with a disability and families where at least one household member has a disability and is experiencing homelessness to live independently. Additionally, no more than 20 percent of each award may be used for other eligible CoC Program activities associated with the PSH project (e.g., supportive services, operating costs), and no more than 10 percent of an award may be used for project administration.

Applicants should review the Notice in its entirety which can be found on HUD’s website: https://www.hud.gov/program_offices/comm_planning/coc/cocbuilds
