How to apply for the HUD 2019 Continuum of Care Competition:
The Jackson County Continuum of Care (CoC) announces the local competition for the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) funding as outlined in HUD’s FY 2019 Continuum of Care Notice of Funding Availability.
Any agency or organization within Jackson County may apply for funding; however, the proposed project must address the FY 2019 CoC program goals of ending homelessness either through quickly re-housing homeless individuals, families, persons fleeing domestic violence, and youth while minimizing the trauma and dislocation caused by homelessness; promoting access to and effective utilization of mainstream programs by homeless individuals and families; or optimizing self-sufficiency among those experiencing homelessness. Please visit www.hudexchange.info/resource/5842/fy-2019-coc-program-nofa/ for a more detailed explanation of these goals.
All organizations submitting a project for this competition, whether it is a first-time submittal or a renewal, must complete pre-application materials and submit them to the Jackson County Continuum of Care by 5 pm on August 7, 2019. Pre-application materials will become available on July 17, 2019. Please contact Jackie Agee, Grants Specialist at ACCESS, to receive these materials (jagee@accesshelps.org). ACCESS, as the lead agency for the CoC, is coordinating the pre-application process for Jackson County.
