FY 2024 Family Unification Program Notice of Funding Opportunity

Eligible ApplicantsOnly PHAs that have an existing Annual Contributions Contract (ACC) with HUD for the HCV program are eligible to apply for funding under this announcement.PHAs wishing to share the administration of the program with another PHA may apply jointly; however, the Annual Contributions Contract (ACC) will be solely with the lead PHA applicant and all reporting must be submitted by the lead PHA applicant. The maximum number of vouchers will be based on the lead PHA's voucher program size or the identified need for the shared jurisdiction, if lower than the indicated cap, in accordance with Section II.C. of this NOFO. The agreement to share in the administration of the vouchers must be included in the application package.If the applicant PHA will formally partner with another PHA that will administer the vouchers on behalf of the applicant PHA (where the partner PHA is not applying for FUP vouchers), the Annual Contributions Contract (ACC) will be solely with the applicant PHA and all reporting must be submitted by the applicant PHA. The maximum number of vouchers will be based on the size of the applicant PHA’s voucher program or the applicant PHA’s identified need for such vouchers, if lower than the indicated cap. The agreement to administer the vouchers on behalf of the applicant PHA must be included in the application package.Eligible PHAs must have demonstrated a commitment to administer FUP, which shall be verified by an executed Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) among the PHA(s), PCWA, and CoC that meets the requirements of Section III.F.5. of this NOFO.HUD will only consider funding one application per PHA. This one-application limit applies regardless of whether the PHA is a State or regional PHA. In instances where a PHA has more than one PHA code number due to its operating under the jurisdiction of more than one HUD Field Office, a separate application, under each code, shall be considered for funding with the cumulative total of vouchers applied for under the applications not to exceed the maximum number of vouchers the PHA is eligible to apply for under this NOFO (i.e., no more than the number of vouchers the same PHA would be eligible to apply for if it had only one PHA code number). Individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorship organizations are not eligible to compete for, or receive, awards made under this announcement.
