Opportunity Summary:
The Community Development Technical Assistance (CD TA) opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number FR 5200 19E) is a discretionary grant program offered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to fund technical assistance aimed at improving performance, compliance, and measurable results across five distinct HUD community development program areas. The central goal is to strengthen how participating jurisdictions and organizations plan, administer, and report on these programs so they operate at the highest possible level, deliver intended outcomes, and remain aligned with HUD requirements and policy objectives. HUD directs applicants to its website (www.hud.gov) for detailed background on each program area, including mission, goals, and typical eligible activities.
This technical assistance funding is organized around five program categories: (1) HOME, which supports affordable housing production and rehabilitation; (2) CHDO (HOME), which focuses specifically on Community Housing Development Organizations and their role in developing HOME-assisted housing; (3) Homeless programs, which cover technical assistance related to homelessness assistance systems and initiatives; (4) HOPWA (Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS), which supports housing and related services for low-income persons living with HIV/AIDS and their families; and (5) CDBG (Community Development Block Grant), which funds a wide range of community development activities primarily benefiting low- and moderate-income persons. While the notice summary does not list specific deliverables, the framing makes clear that the awards are intended to provide hands-on support, guidance, and capacity-building that improves program administration and results rather than direct construction or service delivery funding.
The opportunity is categorized as a grant with no cost sharing or matching requirement. The published award ceiling is $27,920,000. The funding activity area is community development, and the CFDA number provided is 14.218 (Community Development Block Grants/Entitlement Grants), indicating the federal assistance listing associated with the opportunity. Because this is a discretionary competition, applicants would generally be expected to respond to HUDs Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) requirements, including the specific technical assistance scope, target audiences, selection factors, and submission instructions described in the full announcement.
Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with the important qualifier that the specific eligible applicants for each of the five CD TA program areas are identified in the NOFA itself. HUD also notes that, consistent with the Presidents faith-based initiative, it welcomes participation from eligible faith-based organizations along with other community organizations, as long as they meet the eligibility requirements outlined in the NOFA. In practical terms, that language signals that nonprofit and community-based entities may be competitive or eligible where allowed, and that faith-based status alone neither disqualifies nor guarantees eligibility.
Key dates for the competition show it was posted on May 4, 2008, with a closing date of July 3, 2008, and an archive date of July 4, 2008, meaning the opportunity is historical rather than currently open. Applicants at the time were directed to an application package download webpage for submission materials. For access issues with the full announcement, the program contact listed is Mark Horwath at 202-708-3176.
