Notice of Funding Availability for Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS

Résumé

This Notice announces the availability of $25,600,000 in funds to be allocated by competition for housing assistance and supportive services under the Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) program. The funds available under this NOFA will be used to fund projects for low-income persons with HIV/AIDS and their families under two categories of assistance: (1) Grants for special projects of national significance which, due to their innovative nature or their potential for replication, are likely to serve as effective models in addressing the needs of eligible persons; and (2) grants for projects which are part of long-term comprehensive strategies for providing housing and related services for eligible persons. The NOFA contains information concerning eligible applicants, the funding available, program goals and measurable objectives, the application package, its processing, and selection of applications. The regulations for the HOPWA program are found at 24 CFR part 574. A Final Rule for this program, amending 24 CFR part 574, is published elsewhere in today's Federal Register. The funds made available under this NOFA are subject to the requirements of that Final Rule.
