HUD manages the Continuum of Care (CoC) Program funding process by releasing a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) when funding is available. Through this competitive process, CoCs across the country apply for federal funds to support housing and services for people experiencing homelessness. The Los Angeles CoC evaluates local projects, ranks applications based on HUD and community priorities, and submits a consolidated application for funding consideration.
Although Congress authorized a two-year CoC Program NOFO in FY 2024, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) published a NOFO for the FY 2025 CoC Program Competition on November 13, 2025, with a submission due date of January 14, 2026.
For any questions or comments, please email NOFA@lahsa.org (Note: LAHSA will still use this email address, even though the CoC Program Competition was renamed as "NOFO" in FY 2021).

FY 2025 CoC Program Competition Supplemental Materials
FY 2025 GRANT INVENTORY WORKSHEET (GIW)
The Grant Inventory Worksheet (GIW) is a tool used by HUD to document all projects within a CoC that are eligible for renewal in a given funding cycle. The GIW lists each project’s grant number, operating year, and Annual Renewal Amount (ARA), which HUD uses to calculate the CoC’s total renewal funding amount for the year.
Grant Inventory Worksheet (GIW) review was due July 14, 2025.
