Opportunity Summary:
The Section 202 Demonstration Pre Development Grant Program (Funding Opportunity Number FR 5218 N 01) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) designed to help certain Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly projects move from an award stage into a buildable, finance-ready development stage. In practical terms, the program focuses on the pre-development period, when a sponsor needs to complete essential up-front work before construction can begin but may not yet have permanent financing in place to cover those early costs. The grant is intended to reduce the risk that promising Section 202 projects stall due to a lack of funds for early planning and due diligence.
The stated purpose of the opportunity is to assist sponsors of projects that received Fund Reservation Awards under the FY 2008 SuperNOFA for the Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly program. The funding is specifically for eligible pre-development expenses that are consistent with Section 202 rules, including architectural and engineering work, obtaining or maintaining site control, and other planning-related costs tied to preparing the project for development. This generally means the grant is aimed at the kinds of technical, professional, and transactional steps that help a project advance from concept and award into finalized plans, secured site arrangements, and readiness for the next approvals and financing milestones.
Eligibility is narrowly targeted. It is not a general open competition for any housing developer; instead, it is limited to private nonprofit organizations and nonprofit consumer cooperatives that submitted an application for funding consideration under the FY 2008 SuperNOFA for the Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly program. In other words, the applicant pool is restricted to mission-driven nonprofit entities already engaged with the FY 2008 Section 202 funding process, reflecting that this demonstration grant is meant as a companion resource to projects already in HUDs Section 202 pipeline.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity is listed under CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number 14.157, Supportive Housing for the Elderly. The funding instrument is a grant, the activity category is housing, and there is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants are not required to contribute a specific dollar-for-dollar match as a condition of receiving funds. The opportunity was originally posted on October 14, 2008, with a creation date of December 15, 2008. The original closing date was December 16, 2008, but the deadline was modified: the current closing date became February 18, 2009. HUD also clarified that this modification only changed the due date, so applicants who already submitted and did not want to revise their application did not need to resubmit, while those who wanted to make changes could use the extension to update their materials. The archive date is February 19, 2009, indicating the opportunity was closed and archived shortly after the final deadline.

The listing also indicates an additional information link that begins with a basic application instruction, Step One: Download a Grant Application Package, signaling that the process followed the standard federal approach of downloading and completing the package for submission by the deadline.
