Each Fiscal Year (FY), HUD opens a CoC Program Competition. The process begins with the registration of CoCs by CoC-designated Collaborative Applicants, followed by the CoC’s review of the Grant Inventory Worksheets (GIW) and the release of the CoC Program Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO). As the Collaborative Applicant for the Alabama Balance of State Continuum of Care (CoC), ARCH administers the annual evaluation and application process for HUD’s CoC Funding Competition for 37 Counties.

Dear Continuum of Care (CoC) Board & Committee Members, CoC Providers & Community Stakeholders,

We're two days away from completing the FY2024–2025 NOFO CoC Program Competition! Today, Monday, October 28, 2024 is the deadline for posting the FY2024–2025 CoC Program Competition Approved Consolidated Application. On behalf of the Alabama Balance of State CoC, the reviewed and approved Consolidated Application is here. This message has also been sent via listserv on Monday, October 28, 2024 at 10:07 PM. 

The Alabama Balance of State (AL-507) Continuum of Care (CoC) is currently seeking volunteers to join the Rank and Review panel for the upcoming HUD CoC grant cycle. Serving on this panel offers a meaningful way to make a significant impact on the CoC’s work over a short period, though it requires a substantial time commitment during the review phase.​ If you are interested in this opportunity and have no conflicts of interest related to the CoC grant, we invite you to apply here: (Ranking & Review Interest Form). Deadline Sunday, August 31, 2024. CLOSED

This notification is being posted in alignment with HUD regulations, the Alabama Balance of State CoC must notify, in writing outside of e-snaps, all project applicants who submitted their applications by the CoC-established deadline, on or before October 15, 2024 (15 days prior to the submission deadline). Each applicant will be informed of the status of their application—whether it has been accepted and ranked on the CoC Priority Listing, rejected, or reduced by the CoC.

 

We extend our gratitude to the ranking and review committee for their time and commitment to ensuring a transparent and equitable process. A

 

Thank you to everyone for a successful NOFO season!
