Opportunity Summary:
The Community Development Technical Assistance (CD TA) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number FR 5200 N 19) is a discretionary grant program offered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to fund technical assistance that helps communities and participating organizations deliver stronger outcomes across key HUD community development programs. Rather than directly funding housing construction or services, this opportunity is designed to improve the performance, compliance, and results of entities that administer or carry out HUD community development funding. The overall aim is to raise the quality of program implementation, reduce administrative and regulatory problems, and help recipients achieve the intended impacts of HUD-funded community development efforts.
This opportunity supports technical assistance for five distinct program areas: (1) HOME (the HOME Investment Partnerships Program), (2) CHDO (HOME) related support for Community Housing Development Organizations, (3) Homeless assistance-related activities, (4) HOPWA (Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS), and (5) CDBG (Community Development Block Grant). HUD points applicants to its website (www.hud.gov) for detailed descriptions of each program area, including their missions, goals, and typical activities, since the technical assistance funded through CD TA is meant to strengthen how these programs are planned, managed, and delivered in the field.
From an administrative standpoint, the award is a grant (Funding Instrument Type: Grant) within the community development activity category. The notice indicates an expectation of around 100 awards. The published materials also reference a technical correction that appeared in the Federal Register and is included in the instructions download, which matters because it suggests applicants needed to rely on the most current corrected guidance when preparing submissions. The opportunity was posted May 14, 2008, with a closing deadline of July 3, 2008, and it was archived shortly after, on July 4, 2008. The listing also notes there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of award (though applicants could still propose leveraging or partnership resources if relevant to their technical assistance approach).
The total funding ceiling shown for the opportunity is $27,920,000. The listing references CFDA Number 14.239 (HOME Investment Partnerships Program), signaling alignment with HOME program assistance even though the CD TA effort spans multiple community development areas. Eligibility is not expressed as a single universal category in the summary; instead, eligible applicants for each of the five CD TA program areas are identified in a chart within the NOFA itself, so eligibility depends on which program area(s) an applicant is applying to support and the specific eligibility rules HUD set out for that category. The notice also explicitly states that, consistent with the President’s faith-based initiative at the time, HUD welcomed participation by eligible faith-based and other community organizations, as long as they meet the eligibility requirements described in the NOFA.
Operationally, applicants were directed to use the application package download link provided with the announcement. For access issues or questions about obtaining the full announcement, HUD provided a headquarters contact number (202-708-3176). In practical terms, this grant opportunity is best understood as HUD investing in expert technical support capacity so that local governments, housing organizations, service providers, and other eligible entities can administer major community development programs more effectively, meet federal requirements more consistently, and ultimately deliver better outcomes for low- and moderate-income communities and other targeted populations served by HOME, CHDO-related HOME activities, homelessness programs, HOPWA, and CDBG.
