GRANT FUNDING AVAILABLE FROM HUD FOR HOUSING INITIATIVES

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has released the Super Notice of Funding Availability (SuperNOFA) that explains what funds are available and how to apply.

Most of the grants available from HUD have been consolidated into one SuperNOFA. Please note that each grant has its own application process and its own deadline. Requirements for all programs are identified in the general section and program specific requirements are in the program sections of the SuperNOFA. Please make sure that you read BOTH parts. Under each program covered by the SuperNOFA, you can download the applications or request that a hard copy be sent to you. For training you can link to the "webcast" of the training programs associated with each NOFA. If you have any questions about the SuperNOFA, in general, please feel free to contact by email at hudsupernofa@aspensys.com or call the SuperNOFA Information Center at 1-800-HUD-8929 or for the Hearing Impaired the number is 1-800-HUD-2209. Technical assistance questions should be addressed to the contact person listed in the SuperNOFA.

This Fiscal Year (FY) 2003 SuperNOFA announces the availability of approximately .3 billion in HUD program funds covering 43 funding opportunities within programs operated and administered by HUD offices including Fair Housing Initiatives Programs, Housing Counseling Programs, Section 8 Mainstream Housing Opportunities for Persons with Disabilities, Section 811 Supportive Housing for Persons with Disabilities.
