2026 Housing Navigation Center NOFA Letter of Clarification (3).pdf

This is a Letter of Clarification document related to a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) issued by the City of Houston's Housing and Community Development Department (HCD) for the operation of a Housing Navigation Center. The City is soliciting applications from qualified nonprofit organizations and local government entities to lease and operate the facility for a 36-month period. The Housing Navigation Center will provide temporary semi-private accommodations and support services designed to assist unhoused individuals with transitioning to permanent housing while developing sustainable life skills. A pre-application conference was conducted, with a recording made available to interested parties. A previously scheduled facility tour on Friday, April 24th at 11:00 a.m. was canceled.

The project is supported by approximately $10,500,000 in total funding over the 36-month contract period, with primary support from CDBG-Disaster Recovery 24 funds supplemented by additional federal, state, and local funding sources. The file itself requires JavaScript to be accessed through the BeaconBid platform and serves to clarify specific questions or requirements related to the NOFA process.
