About this opportunity

Here is a two-paragraph summary of the key details of the Federal Grant Opportunity:

Through this funding opportunity, the Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Office of Policy Development & Research (PD&R) will award cooperative agreements to Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Hispanic Serving Institutions, Tribal Colleges and Universities, and Alaska Native/Native Hawaiian-Serving Institutions to conduct research that addresses one or more of the Eligible Research Questions listed in the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO). The research must contribute to knowledge on housing and community development and be relevant to the communities and students served by the minority-serving institutions. Applications are due by April 9, 2025, and HUD anticipates making approximately 25 awards ranging from $250,000 to $2.5 million each, with project periods of 12-60 months. Awardees will work closely with HUD subject matter experts throughout the projects.

This funding opportunity is part of the Department of Housing and Urban Development's General Research and Technology Activity program (CFDA 14.506), which supports a wide range of policy-relevant research and technology initiatives related to housing, community development, and the built environment. Recent grant opportunities under this program have focused on affordable housing production, disaster preparedness, energy efficiency, and leveraging technology to address disparities in underserved communities.

Synopsis

Through this funding opportunity, HUD's Office of Policy Development & Research (PD & R) will fund eligible institutions to conduct research that addresses one or more of the Eligible Research Questions listed in Section III.G. The NOFO is intended to: (1) fund quality research that contributes to knowledge on housing and community development; and (2) support minority-serving institutions to conduct housing and community development research important to the communities and students they serve. The Eligible Research Questions are adapted from HUD's Learning Agenda, which articulates a set of critical, policy-relevant research questions that, if addressed, would support the advancement of HUD's mission of creating strong, sustainable, inclusive communities and quality, affordable homes for all. The Learning Agenda draws on input and support from practitioners, advocates, people with lived experience in HUD programs, researchers, and policymakers at the federal, state, and local levels.Awards made under this NOFO will be cooperative agreements. Awardees should anticipate substantial involvement by subject matter experts within PD & R in support of the selected research projects. Substantial involvement is defined in Section III.A of this NOFO.
