Opportunity Information: Apply for FR 6500 N 33
The Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Fiscal Year 2021 Comprehensive Housing Counseling Grant Program (Funding Opportunity Number: FR 6500 N 33) is a discretionary grant program designed to support HUD-approved housing counseling agencies that deliver direct counseling and education services to renters and homeowners. The overall aim is to strengthen housing stability by helping individuals and families obtain housing, keep their housing, and make informed decisions that support long-term affordability and responsible tenancy or homeownership.
At its core, the program funds housing counseling work that addresses practical, day-to-day issues people face in maintaining stable housing. This includes counseling and guidance related to property maintenance and upkeep, financial management, and financial literacy. It also supports broader counseling needs that may help a household improve its housing conditions, meet financial obligations, and understand and fulfill the responsibilities that come with renting or owning a home. The NOFO positions housing counseling as a key tool for preventing avoidable housing loss and for improving the ability of households to navigate complex housing and financial systems.
HUD also emphasizes the protective and connective role housing counseling agencies play in communities. Agencies funded under this program are described as an important safeguard against housing scams and discrimination, which can undermine access to safe and affordable housing. In addition, these agencies often function as an entry point to other forms of assistance, helping clients connect to local, state, federal, and private housing resources and support programs that may be necessary to resolve a housing crisis or improve longer-term housing outcomes.
Administratively, this opportunity is offered by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development under the housing funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 14.169. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the opportunity category is discretionary, meaning awards are made competitively based on the NOFO requirements and available appropriations. The opportunity was created on September 14, 2021, with an original application deadline of October 14, 2021, due by 11:59:59 PM Eastern Standard Time. HUD anticipated making approximately 250 awards, and the listed award ceiling is $3,000,000.
Eligibility is indicated as "Others," with additional eligibility details referenced as being provided within the NOFO text (specifically in a section labeled "Additional Information on Eligibility"). However, the description makes clear that the intended applicants are HUD-approved housing counseling agencies, reinforcing that participation generally depends on having HUD approval status and meeting any other conditions laid out in the full NOFO.Apply for FR 6500 N 33
