Opportunity Information: Apply for FR 6902 N 25A
Continuum of Care Builds (CoC Builds) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) focused on expanding the supply of permanent supportive housing (PSH) by funding the creation of new PSH units. The core purpose of the program is to help communities build, acquire, or rehabilitate housing so that more units are available for people who need long-term housing stability paired with supportive services. In practice, this means the bulk of any proposed budget is expected to go directly toward capital activities that result in new PSH units, rather than primarily supporting operations or services.
The opportunity emphasizes that most of the requested funds must be used for new construction, acquisition, or rehabilitation specifically to create new PSH units. While the program is capital-focused, the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) allows for certain other Continuum of Care (CoC) Program eligible costs as well, including project administrative costs, with limits on the percentage of funding that can be requested for those items (the NOFO references these details in sections IV.B.1.b and IV.B.1.c). Applicants therefore need to structure proposals so the dominant share of funds is tied to producing new housing units, and any additional eligible expenses remain within the stated caps.
Eligible applicants cover a wide range of public and nonprofit entities commonly involved in housing development and homeless assistance systems. This includes state, county, and city or township governments; special district governments; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities; and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). The listing also includes an "others" category, indicating HUD may allow additional eligible entity types as defined in the full NOFO. At the same time, the competition explicitly excludes individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorship organizations, meaning those parties cannot apply for or receive awards under this announcement.
HUD states that faith-based organizations may apply on the same basis as any other organization and notes that it does not engage in unlawful or improper conduct, policies, or practices that target faith-based organizations. The practical takeaway is that religiously affiliated nonprofits are not barred from participating solely due to their faith-based character, as long as they meet the same eligibility and program requirements as other applicants.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity title "Continuum of Care Builds (CoC Builds)" and opportunity number FR 6902 N 25A. The assistance listing (CFDA) number is 14.267, and the activity category is housing. The grant type is a discretionary grant. HUD indicates an expected total of 8 awards, with an award ceiling of $14,000,000. The opportunity was created on 2025-09-05, and the original application closing date is 2025-09-12, which suggests a short turnaround time and makes early preparation and alignment with NOFO requirements especially important.
Overall, CoC Builds is designed for communities and eligible organizations that can deliver tangible, capital-driven PSH expansion through construction, acquisition, or rehabilitation, with limited allowance for other eligible CoC costs and administrative expenses as defined by the NOFO.Apply for FR 6902 N 25A
