About this opportunity

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is seeking grant applications for the FY 2025 Continuum of Care Competition and Youth Homeless Demonstration Program Grants to address homelessness across the United States. The program aims to promote community-wide efforts to quickly rehouse individuals and families experiencing homelessness, with a particular focus on youth ages 24 and younger, domestic violence survivors, and those experiencing trauma. Eligible applicants include nonprofit providers, state and local governments, Indian Tribes, and public housing authorities, who can apply for various project types such as permanent housing, transitional housing, supportive services, and homeless management information systems (HMIS). The evaluation criteria will likely emphasize projects that minimize housing dislocation, promote access to mainstream programs, and optimize self-sufficiency among homeless populations. The application deadline is January 14, 2026, at 8:00 PM EST, with an anticipated award date of May 1, 2026.

The total funding opportunity is approximately $3,918,000,000, with specific allocations including $52,000,000 for Domestic Violence Bonus projects and $228,000,000 for competitive renewal of Youth Homeless Demonstration Program grants. HUD expects to make approximately 7,000 awards, with the performance period running from May 1, 2026, to December 31, 2027. The grants will support a wide range of project types and sizes, targeting various homeless populations across different communities, with a strong emphasis on creating comprehensive, coordinated approaches to preventing and ending homelessness.
