About this program

The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Office of Native American Programs funds training and technical assistance for Indian tribes, Alaska Native villages, and Tribally Designated Housing Entities administering HUD's Indian Housing Block Grant Program, under CFDA 14.893.

The program has not disbursed recent grant awards. The most recent grant awards were made in 2021, with 14 awards obligating $10 million in combined federal dollars. The portfolio was active in 2021 at a rate of 14 awards that year, but no grant awards have been reported since August 2021. The most recently posted grant opportunity dates to 2012 and is no longer open.

Grant awards under this program fund training, technical assistance, and capacity-building services delivered to tribal housing entities and their housing administrators. Recent awards included Cooperative Agreement NTZ21MD0024 for $5 million (completion date September 30, 2030), Cooperative Agreement NTZ21MD0009 for $1 million, Cooperative Agreement NTZ21NY0022 for $1 million, and Cooperative Agreement NTZ21MD0008 for $800 thousand. A smaller number of Project Grants were awarded concurrently, though several reported zero dollars obligated.

The program awards a balanced mix of Cooperative Agreements and Project Grants—seven of each type in the 2021 cohort. The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office is the sole funding agency.

Award magnitudes among the Cooperative Agreements ranged from $500 thousand to $5 million, with most multi-year awards carrying completion dates in 2024 or 2030. Eligible applicants include for-profit and non-profit organizations with demonstrated capacity to perform the required technical assistance and training services. Awards are rated on experience, performance, management, and quality control.

No grant opportunities are currently open under this program. The source contains no evidence of recent grant solicitations or announcements beyond the 2012 notice. Organizations interested in pursuing funding should monitor HUD's Office of Native American Programs for new funding announcements.
