Opportunity Summary:
The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) issued this FY 2013 notice (Funding Opportunity Number FR 5700 N 31A) primarily as a registration and readiness bulletin for the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program competition, not as a funding announcement for individual projects. Its purpose is narrowly focused on the front-end step that must happen before a CoC can compete: the annual CoC registration process completed in HUDs e-snaps system. In plain terms, the notice tells Collaborative Applicants what they must do to register their Continuum of Care for the FY 2013 CoC Program Competition, and it also highlights key information they and project applicants should understand in order to prepare for that years competition requirements.
The notice lays out two central goals. First, it explains the functions and requirements of the annual CoC registration process in e-snaps, including what information must be entered, how the process works, and what deadlines apply. Second, it provides background and competition-prep guidance connected to the continued implementation of changes to the McKinney-Vento Act that were made by the HEARTH Act. HUD explicitly recommends that readers use this notice alongside the CoC Program interim rule, signaling that compliance expectations and definitions in the interim rule remain essential to completing registration correctly and preparing a competitive submission.
A key clarification repeated throughout the notice is who it is for and who it is not for. The registration process described applies only to Collaborative Applicants, meaning the entity designated by a Continuum of Care to submit the CoC registration and later coordinate the overall CoC application package in e-snaps. It does not apply to individual project applicants completing their own project applications, and it definitely does not apply to private individuals. HUD emphasizes that it does not provide CoC Program funding directly to private individuals, and therefore individuals should not attempt to register or apply under this competition. This is why the opportunity category and explanation read like an administrative notice: it is a Registration Notice ONLY rather than a typical grant solicitation.
In terms of logistics, the notice was posted on August 26, 2013, with a closing date of September 23, 2013, and an archive date of September 24, 2013. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement indicated because the action at issue is registration, not an award. The eligible applicant field is listed broadly as "Others," but the accompanying eligibility instruction effectively narrows that to the specific CoC Collaborative Applicants and directs readers to the notice text for the formal definitions and requirements.
Finally, HUD points applicants to support channels rather than offering individualized help through the posting itself. Collaborative Applicants who need guidance on registration submission requirements, including items such as the FY 2013 Grant Inventory Worksheet(s) (GIWs) and other requirements stemming from the HEARTH Act amendments and the CoC Program interim rule, are directed to contact their local HUD Community Planning and Development (CPD) field office. In short, the notice functions as a mandatory procedural roadmap for CoC registration in e-snaps and a reminder of the governing rules and statutory updates shaping the FY 2013 competition.
