Opportunity Summary:
The Family Unification Program (FUP) is a discretionary grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) that focuses on keeping families together by addressing a very specific barrier: the lack of adequate housing. Under FUP, housing choice vouchers are provided to eligible families when unstable or insufficient housing is a primary reason a child is at immediate risk of being placed into out-of-home care (such as foster care), or when inadequate housing is preventing or delaying a child from being discharged from out-of-home care back to their family. In practical terms, the program is designed to reduce unnecessary family separation that occurs not because of parenting issues alone, but because the family cannot secure safe and stable housing.
This funding opportunity was issued as a grant (Funding Instrument Type: Grant) within the housing activity category, and it does not require cost sharing or matching funds. The opportunity was posted and created on November 25, 2008, with an original and final closing date of January 28, 2009, and it was archived on January 29, 2009. The official identifier for the announcement is Funding Opportunity Number FR 5233 N 01, and the opportunity title is "Family Unification Program (FUP)."
Eligibility is limited to Public Housing Agencies (PHAs). According to the announcement, PHAs are the eligible applicants and each PHA may submit only one application under this Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA). The listing notes "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," but the explicit eligibility statement makes clear that PHAs are the entities expected to apply, and any additional nuances would be in the full NOFA text and application instructions.
Applicants were directed to obtain full instructions and the application package through the provided "Download for Instructions and Application Package" link. For technical difficulty accessing the full announcement electronically, HUD provided a contact for assistance through the Technical Assistance Public and Indian Housing Resource Center at 800-955-2232, with the note that the contact is available only for phone calls.
