Opportunity Summary:
The Community Development Technical Assistance (CD TA) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number FR 5200 N 19C) is a discretionary grant program run by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Its core purpose is to fund technical assistance that helps communities and participating organizations reach a higher level of performance, strengthen results, and improve overall implementation across five distinct HUD community development program areas: (1) HOME, (2) CHDO (HOME), (3) Homeless programs, (4) HOPWA (Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS), and (5) CDBG (Community Development Block Grant). In practice, the program is about improving how these HUD-funded efforts are managed and delivered by supporting expert guidance, training, and problem-solving that can raise compliance, effectiveness, and outcomes.
This opportunity is structured as a grant (Funding Instrument Type: Grant) under the community development activity category, and it does not require cost sharing or a matching contribution. The published Award Ceiling listed for the opportunity is $27,920,000, indicating the maximum available funding amount tied to the announcement. The federal assistance listing includes CFDA Number 14.241 (Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS), reflecting that at least part of the technical assistance scope connects to HOPWA-related needs, though the announcement clearly spans multiple program areas beyond HOPWA alone.
The main work supported by CD TA revolves around technical assistance rather than direct service delivery or construction. That typically means helping grantees and stakeholders improve planning, administration, financial management, reporting, compliance with federal requirements, and program design and performance management. Because the five program areas are different in mission and rules, HUD emphasizes that applicants should understand the distinct missions, goals, and eligible activities of each program area; the announcement points applicants to HUDs website (www.hud.gov) for detailed program descriptions. The NOFA (Notice of Funding Availability) also includes a chart specifying which applicants are eligible to apply for each of the five technical assistance tracks, so eligibility is not a single blanket standard but varies depending on whether the application is aimed at HOME, CHDO, Homeless, HOPWA, or CDBG technical assistance.
Eligibility is described broadly in the listing as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," with the key detail being that the NOFA itself contains the controlling eligibility chart. HUD explicitly notes that, consistent with the Presidents faith-based initiative, it welcomes participation from eligible faith-based organizations as well as other community organizations, as long as they meet the eligibility requirements for the relevant program area. In other words, faith-based status does not disqualify an applicant; the determining factor is whether the organization fits within the eligible applicant categories described for the specific technical assistance component being sought.
In terms of timing and administrative details, the opportunity was posted on May 4, 2008, with an original and current closing date of July 3, 2008, and an archive date of July 4, 2008. The listing indicates that a technical correction was published in the Federal Register and made available in the instructions download, which is important for applicants because corrections can affect submission instructions, eligibility, or other requirements. The announcement also references an application package download webpage as the route to access materials. For applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically, HUD provided a point of contact: Mark Horwath at 202-708-3176.
