COC COMPETITION MA-505 COC RFP NOW AVAILABLE!

On Friday, September 10, 2021, the City of New Bedford’s Continuum of Care (CoC), acting through the Office of Housing & Community Development, issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) that includes instructions and both new and renewal application forms for 2021 funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The RFP is available in fillable format here: MA-505 COC RFP 2021. Application deadline is Friday, October 1, 2021 at 12noon as detailed in the RFP.

The linked RFP includes an application for renewal projects as well as new projects (those available through bonus and DV bonus funding) made available by HUD in this round. This funding arises from HUD’s issuance of its Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for Fiscal Year 2021 which is available online.

This competition is open to ALL eligible applicants; one need not have previously applied to participate and submit an application.
