FY24 OK-501 CoC Collaborative Application
About: Each year, HUD requires Continuums of Care (CoCs) to assess and rank CoC-funded projects for the annual CoC NOFO Competition, prioritizing funding allocations. A Way Home for Tulsa (OK-501) uses three committees—the NOFO Rank & Review Task Group, the NOFO Task Group, and the AWH4T Leadership Council—composed of experts in homelessness and housing, to evaluate projects based on performance criteria aligned with HUD’s and system priorities.
The CoC must also review and approve the CoC Consolidated Application, which includes the CoC Application, Priority Listing, and all project applications. This process is managed by Housing Solutions, the CoC’s Collaborative Applicant, in compliance with HUD regulations (24 CFR 578.9). The CoC must approve the application before submission to HUD.
Public Comment: We encourage all community members, stakeholders, and partners to review the application and provide feedback. The review period is a critical opportunity to ensure the application reflects the needs of our community and to offer any suggestions or comments. We will continue to make revisions as needed based on community feedback and will update the application accordingly, ensuring it reflects our collective input before the final submission to HUD.
Public comments will be accepted until 12:00 PM CST on Monday, October 28, 2024, and must be submitted to NOFO@housingsolutionstulsa.org.
NOTICE: We are pleased to announce the FY24 CoC NOFO Project Ranking has been approved by the AWH4T Leadership Council.
Leadership Council approval was finalized on Friday, 10/11/2024. Minutes will be shared in the next Leadership Council meeting.

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has released a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), signifying the beginning of a funding competition among approximately 450 Continuums of Care (CoCs), the community stakeholder groups that guide local responses to homelessness. The 2024 CoC NOFO was released on July 31, 2024, opening the competition making available approximately $3.5 billion nationally to serve people experiencing homelessness. The information in the NOFO sets forth the competition rules and processes for 2024. Of note, CoCs are only required to submit one CoC Application that will be applicable to both FY 2024 and FY 2025 funds.
The CoC Program (24 CFR part 578) is designed to promote a community-wide commitment to the goal of ending homelessness; to provide funding for efforts by nonprofit providers, states, Indian Tribes or tribally designated housing entities (as defined in section 4 of the Native American Housing Assistance and Self-Determination Act of 1996 (25 U.S.C. 4103) (TDHEs), and local governments to quickly rehouse homeless individuals, families, persons fleeing domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking, and youth while minimizing the trauma and dislocation caused by homelessness; to promote access to and effective utilization of mainstream programs by homeless individuals and families; and to optimize self-sufficiency among those experiencing homelessness. Before the application is submitted to HUD, the CoC is required to hold a local competition to determine which projects will be included in the consolidated application, along with their relative priority. The results of the local competition dictate which projects the CoC will seek to fund.

The Continuum of Care (CoC) Program is a federal initiative that provides funding to support community efforts to end homelessness. On July 22, 2024, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) released the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for the CoC Builds funding competition. The CoC Builds NOFO supports the creation of new units of permanent supportive housing (PSH) by providing capital funding for construction, acquisition, rehabilitation or conversion of PSH.
Housing Solutions has released an Interest Form to identify Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) Developments in progress that would qualify for the U.S Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) CoC Builds Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO).
The CoC Builds NOFO allows the Tulsa CoC to submit one application for up to $5 million as part of a national competition. The application can be for one development project/site or multiple developments/sites as long as there is one primary organization that would receive the funding from HUD. Note that funding is very competitive nationally, and no funding is guaranteed.
This Interest Form serves as a way for the Tulsa CoC to gather information about the number of interested applicants with projects that could receive this funding. Any organizations interested in applying for this funding must complete this form by October 11, 2024. These will be reviewed by a selection committee of the Tulsa CoC, which will determine the next steps for the CoC.

We encourage all interested organizations to review the HUD CoC Builds NOFO website, noting in particular the following documents:
