Opportunity Summary:
Asthma Interventions in Public and Assisted Multifamily Housing (Funding Opportunity Number FR 5500 N 06; CFDA 14.914) was a discretionary grant program offered by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to support demonstration projects aimed at improving asthma control for children and other residents living in federally assisted multifamily housing. The focus was on housing environments where asthma triggers are often present and where residents may face barriers to consistent healthcare and healthy indoor conditions. HUD framed the program as a practical, on-the-ground effort to test interventions that could reduce asthma symptoms and improve day-to-day respiratory health outcomes for people living in public housing administered by local public housing authorities as well as in privately owned, HUD-subsidized multifamily properties such as project-based Section 8, Section 202, and Section 811 housing.
A key condition of the opportunity was that funding depended on future Congressional action because FY2011 full-year appropriations for the program had not yet been enacted at the time of the notice. In other words, even though the competition and application process were announced, actual availability of grant funds was contingent on later federal budget decisions. The grant did not require cost sharing or matching funds, which lowered the financial barrier for eligible organizations to propose and operate demonstration projects.
Eligible applicants were broadly defined to include US-based academic institutions and nonprofit organizations, state governments and units of general local government, and federally recognized Native American tribes. For-profit firms could also apply, but they were not allowed to earn a profit from the project, signaling that the work was expected to be carried out on a cost-reimbursement or similar non-profit basis. The competition allowed both new project applications and applications that would supplement existing projects, with both types competing under the same process. Federal agencies and individuals were not eligible to apply. HUD also referenced threshold requirements in the FY2011 General Section that applicants would need to meet to qualify for an award, meaning basic eligibility and compliance screening applied before full merit review.
The timeline provided in the announcement shows the opportunity was posted on April 8, 2011, with an original closing date of June 9, 2011, later amended to a final application deadline of 11:59:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 14, 2011. The opportunity was archived on June 20, 2011. Applicants were directed to obtain the application package using the CFDA identifier. For support, HUD provided contacts for both programmatic and administrative questions: Dr. J. Kofi Berko, Jr. (202-402-7696) for program content and Ms. Nadine L. Heath (202-402-7680) for grants administration, noting the number was not toll-free.
