Opportunity Summary:
The Choice Neighborhoods Implementation Grant Program is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) designed to help communities carry out comprehensive neighborhood revitalization plans. The program is built around three connected goals that are meant to be pursued together rather than in isolation. First, it focuses on housing by replacing distressed public and assisted housing with high-quality, well-managed mixed-income housing that better serves current residents and fits the needs of the surrounding neighborhood. Second, it focuses on people by improving educational outcomes and long-term economic mobility for youth through services and supports delivered directly to young people and their families. Third, it focuses on the broader neighborhood by creating the conditions for sustained public and private reinvestment so that distressed areas can offer the kinds of amenities that shape where families choose to live, such as safety, strong schools, and active commercial corridors.
This funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number FR 5800 N 11) was offered as a grant under the housing funding activity category, with an estimated total funding amount of $76,000,000 and an expectation of making about three awards. Individual awards could be as large as $30,000,000, with no stated minimum award amount (award floor listed as $0). The program is associated with CFDA number 14.889 (Choice Neighborhoods Implementation Grants). A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning applicants were expected to bring additional resources beyond the federal award, typically to help demonstrate local commitment and leverage other public or private investment aligned with the neighborhood plan.
Eligible applicants include Public Housing Authorities (PHAs), units of local government, for-profit entities, nonprofit entities, and tribal entities, but there are important structure rules. A unit of local government is required to be either the lead applicant or a co-applicant for every application, ensuring that the effort is anchored in municipal leadership and local public systems. For-profit and nonprofit applicants must own the target housing to apply. Individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorship organizations are not eligible. The official announcement notes that additional eligibility details and threshold requirements are provided in the full Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA), including definitions and specific conditions that applicants must meet to be considered.
Key administrative details include the original posting date of November 6, 2014, with a creation date of November 10, 2014. The original closing date was February 8, 2015, and the current closing date was extended to February 9, 2015. Applications had to be submitted electronically by 11:59:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the deadline date. The opportunity was later archived on March 15, 2015. The primary reference point for official materials and updates was HUDs grants and funding availability page, listed in the announcement as http://portal.hud.gov/hudportal/HUDsrc/programoffices/administration/grants/fundsavail, with contact instructions indicating applicants should use the provided email for program-specific requirements and assistance, particularly if they had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically.
