Summary: HUD’s notice makes available $59.88 million in FY2011 funding for the Housing Choice Voucher Family Self-Sufficiency (HCV FSS) Program. This Notice is comprised of the Notice of HUD’s FY2011 NOFA, Policy Requirements and General Section (General Section) to HUD’s FY2011 NOFAs for Discretionary Programs, posted on www.Grants.gov on April 4, 2011, and this program section to the NOFA.
PHAs that administer HCV FSS programs enter into five-year contracts with new families on an ongoing basis, but HUD funding for coordinator salaries is awarded on an annual basis. To ensure continuity of services to those families currently enrolled in HCV FSS, the Department will first fund PHA applicants that are currently administering HCV FSS programs that meet performance standards/threshold that are established in this NOFA. If funding remains, the Department will fund additional applicants that wish to establish new HCV FSS programs. Priority will be given to both existing and new programs that adopt HUD policy priorities. Those priorities are intended to enhance education, training and job opportunities available to HCV FSS program participants.
Date of Publication: April 21, 2011
Application Date: HUD’s application deadline date is 11:59:59 p.m. eastern time on June 8, 2011 submitted through http://www.grants.gov.

Resource Materials: A copy of HUD's HCV FSS program slides is available here. A copy of each PHA's PIC data on the number of FSS participants served from January 1, 2010 - December 31, 2010 is available here. PHAs interested in applying under this NOFA are encouraged to review their PIC data. In FY 2010 some PHAs were either under-funded or not funded at all, because their PIC data did not accurately reflect the number of their FSS participants and was not corrected in time.
