Dear Continuums of Care,

Thank you for your work to serve the most vulnerable Americans without housing. You, more than anyone, know that the nation’s homelessness crisis is at a historic high, and that our communities shoulder the tragic impacts of this crisis every day. With 770,000 people experiencing homelessness — 275,000 people unsheltered on our streets — HUD is dedicated to supporting local solutions that reduce unsheltered homelessness and increase long term stability and self-sufficiency. The status quo is unacceptable for every American, with or without a home.

In response, HUD intends to publish a NOFO for 2025 Continuum of Care (CoC) awards. HUD invites CoCs to prepare for an application focused on treatment and recovery, reducing unsheltered homelessness, reducing returns to homelessness, and increasing the earned income of participants.

The NOFO will seek to provide opportunities for new types of projects including street outreach and transitional housing programs. HUD encourages CoCs to evaluate the effectiveness of their projects at contributing to the community-wide goals above and to ensure that the most effective partners, including faith-based organizations, are involved.

We recognize this is a new application process for 2025 funding and are committed to providing CoCs the resources needed to serve their communities.

Alongside you, Secretary Turner and all of HUD recognize the inherent dignity of every man, woman, and child without a home. It is HUD’s mission to steward resources so that no person is left to languish on our streets or to suffer in the grip of addiction. Thank you for your partnership to that end.
