Description: The Initiative for Supportive Housing Development (INSiDE) NOFO targets efforts within Continuum of Care (CoC) geographic areas to address and reduce homelessness by adding new units of permanent supportive housing (PSH) through new construction, acquisition, or rehabilitation through one-time INSiDE awards under the CoC program. PSH is permanent housing in which supportive services are provided to assist individuals and families experiencing homelessness with a disability to live independently. Additionally, no more than 20 percent of an award made under this NOFO, may also be for other eligible CoC Program activities associated with the PSH project, (e.g., supportive services, operating costs, administrative costs (Section IV.G.1 of this NOFO), and no more than 10 percent of an award may be used for project administration.The Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (24 CFR part 578) (the Rule) is designed to promote a community-wide commitment to the goal of ending homelessness; to provide funding for efforts by nonprofit providers, states, Indian Tribes, tribally designated housing entities (as defined in section 4 of the Native American Housing Assistance and Self-Determination Act of 1996 (25 U.S.C. 4103) (TDHEs)), and local governments to quickly rehouse homeless individuals, families, persons fleeing or attempting to flee domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking, and youth while minimizing the trauma and dislocation caused by homelessness; to promote access to and effective utilization of mainstream programs by homeless individuals and families; and to optimize self-sufficiency among those experiencing homelessness.HUD has the following three goals for this competition:Affirmatively further fair housing by addressing barriers that continue segregation, hinder access to areas of opportunity for protected class groups and vulnerable populations and concentrate affordable housing in under-resources areas.Increase the supply of new permanent supportive housing units within CoC geographic areas to address homelessness for individuals and families experiencing homelessness where one member of the household has a disability.Ensure new permanent supportive housing units are easily accessible to local services; e.g., reliable transportation services, within walking distance.
