About this opportunity

The Department of Housing and Urban Development is seeking applications for its Section 811 Project Rental Assistance for Persons with Disabilities program. Eligible applicants are state housing agencies partnering with state health and human services agencies to provide at least 55 units of affordable permanent supportive housing with access to services. Applicants must have experience administering affordable housing programs and submit implementation plans connecting residents with supportive services. HUD will evaluate applications based on partnership agreements and plans to increase housing units, with an application deadline of February 27, 2024.

Approximately $106 million is available to make around 13 awards under this funding opportunity. Funded activities will provide project-based rental assistance through 20-year contracts between grantees and property owners, allowing extremely low-income non-elderly persons with disabilities to access integrated housing nationwide.

Synopsis

The primary purpose of the Section 811 PRA Program is to identify, stimulate, and support innovative state-level strategies that will transform and increase housing for extremely low-income persons with disabilities while also making available appropriate support and services. HUD is seeking to support collaborations between State Housing and Health and Human Service/Medicaid Agencies that have resulted or will result in increased access to 2 of 55 affordable permanent supportive housing units - new and existing- with access to appropriate services. Many States have already developed partnerships to address this need, and the Department hopes to further support these efforts as well as to incentivize additional states to develop similar collaborative efforts. This Section 811 PRA NOFA will allow HUD to identify and support successful and promising state models. This program provides states with the flexibility to award and administer these funds to address the shortage of affordable and integrated housing for persons with disabilities. Housing agencies may either directly administer the rental assistance contracts to eligible properties or contract with other qualified parties to administer the long-term rental assistance contracts.
