The 2024 CoC Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO): Bidders Conference
The 2024 CoC NOFO Bidders Conference happened on August 6th. We provided an overview of the NOFO, including any potential updates and changes, the amount of funding available, detailing the required submission materials and timeline, and walked new and expansion projects through using e-snaps. As a reminder, renewal subrecipients will generally not need to make changes in e-snaps this year and will just be reviewing the project applications to confirm the details.
2024 Continuum of Care (CoC) Program Competition- Local Competition
The US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has released the 2024 Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), opening the funding competition for new and renewing homeless services funding through the HUD Continuum of Care (CoC) Program. You can read the full 2024 CoC NOFO on HUD’s website. This page provides important information and key dates for programs, providers, and project participating the San Francisco CoC’s local competition, under the 2024 CoC NOFO. Providers, programs, and projects that have not participated in the NOFO process and that do not currently receive CoC funding are encouraged to apply for funding under this opportunity.
