Dear Eastern PA Continuum of Care grantees, members and stakeholders

On June 22, 2022 HUD published the Continuum of Care Supplemental to Address Unsheltered and Rural Homelessness (also known as the Special NOFO). This NOFO requires CoC’s to conduct a local competition to select new projects for this opportunity. The CoC published an RFP on August 11, 2022 to solicit new projects for the Special NOFO Rural Set Aside. This email summarizes the list of projects that have been accepted by the CoC and will be included in the Eastern PA CoC 2022 Project Priority List for funding under the Special NOFO Rural Set Aside.
