About this program
The Department of Housing and Urban Development Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development distributed formula grants under the Homelessness Prevention and Rapid Re-Housing Program (CFDA 14.257) to provide financial assistance preventing individuals and families from becoming homeless and rapidly re-housing those experiencing homelessness, with the most recent grant award made on October 29, 2009.
This program is not currently active. The portfolio shows 535 formula grants totaling $1.48 billion in federal dollars obligated between October 2008 and October 2009. Awards were concentrated in 2008 (402 awards) with sharply reduced volume in 2009 (133 awards), indicating wind-down activity. The most recent award occurred nearly 17 years ago, with no indication of resumed funding.
The program operated as a Recovery Act-funded initiative distributing formula grants exclusively—all 535 awards were formula grants with no other assistance types. The Department of Housing and Urban Development was the sole funding agency for all awards.
Recent awards ranged widely in size. Representative grants included $29.4 million (S09MY060523, September 1, 2009), $26.2 million (S09DY390001, September 1, 2009), $22.2 million (S09DY370001, September 1, 2009), and $13.3 million (S09DY010001, September 1, 2009) awarded to large jurisdictions, alongside smaller awards of $412 thousand to $1.7 million to other recipients. The September 1, 2009 awards comprised the bulk of final disbursements, followed by smaller awards in September and October 2009.
No current grant opportunities are open. The source contains no recently posted funding announcements or solicitations, confirming this program is not accepting applications. Organizations seeking homelessness prevention and rapid re-housing funding should evaluate other active HUD programs rather than pursue this Recovery Act vehicle.
