Request for Proposals:
NEW PERMANENT SUPPORTIVE & RAPID RE-HOUSING PROJECTS
NYC CCoC FY2016 HUD NOFA Application
This is the application for New York City Coalition on the Continuum of Care (NYCCCoC) new permanent housing projects, including both permanent supportive housing and rapid re-housing. HUD announced that all CoCs may create new projects through the permanent housing bonus at up to 15 percent of the CoC’s FPRN. This amounts to approximately $15.5M in New York City. Additional funds may also be available through the reallocation process as determined by the NYCCCoC Steering Committee. Bonus and any reallocation funds will be available for the following types of new projects through the FY 2016 CoC Program Competition NOFA:
New permanent supportive housing (PSH) projects that will serve 100 percent chronically homeless individuals and families including youth/young adults1 experiencing chronic homelessness.
New rapid rehousing (RRH) projects that will serve homeless individuals and families, including youth, coming directly from the streets or emergency shelters, or meeting the criteria of paragraph (4) of the HUD definition of homeless. (See Appendix for Definition of Category 4 – fleeing domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking or other dangerous situations).
1 Note, the term “youth/young adult” is intended to mean a person up to the age of 24 and 364 days or persons under 25 years of age.
