About this program
The Department of Housing and Urban Development, through its Public and Indian Housing Office, awards grants under the Tribal HUD-VA Supportive Housing Program (CFDA 14.899) to fund rental assistance and supportive services for Native American Veterans who are homeless or at risk of homelessness, with the most recent grant opportunity posted on April 24, 2025, and due August 15, 2025.
The program combines HUD-provided rental assistance with case management and clinical services from the Department of Veterans Affairs. Eligible applicants are Indian Tribes and Tribally Designated Housing Entities (TDHEs) that qualify to receive Indian Housing Block Grant funding under the Native American Housing Assistance and Self-Determination Act of 1996 (NAHASDA). Beneficiaries are Native American Veterans living on or near reservations or in other Indian areas who meet criteria established in NAHASDA and 24 CFR 1000.104. Grantees draw down funds monthly from HUD's Line of Credit Control System (LOCCS) to cover rental assistance payments. Grant funding is awarded based on 12 months of funding with project lengths negotiated with HUD approval. Recipients must comply with 2 CFR 200, Subpart F audit requirements and maintain detailed records of referral and eligibility determinations, along with household demographic, personal, and rental information per Program Guidance 2016-05.
The program operates on an annual renewal cycle subject to appropriations. Two grant opportunities are currently open: FR-6901-N-73 (Tribal HUD-VASH Expansion Revised, due August 15, 2025) and FR-6900-N-73 (HUD Tribal VASH Expansion, due May 16, 2025). The source does not provide grant award portfolio data, recent award amounts, or award frequency metrics. Historically, the program awarded grants to 26 Indian Tribes and TDHEs in the initial demonstration phase, with subsequent renewal and expansion rounds funded under Congressional appropriations; the 2017 Appropriations Act directed $7 million toward the program, with $3.765 million allocated to renewal grants and remaining amounts for new awards.
