FY 2013 – FY 2014 Continuum of Care Program Competition Resource Update
- Today, HUD posted the resource, Additional Guidance for Questions 3A, Objectives 1 through 4 to respond to specific questions on Section 3A. CoC Performance and Strategic Planning Objectives. The information posted provides additional detail on the source, date range and filters to apply for each of the data elements required in Section 3A. There is no additional guidance for Objective 5 at this point since we have not received any questions or requests to further clarify the objective.
- To assist CoCs to provide HUD the final approved Housing Inventory Count (HIC) and Point-in-Time (PIT) count data from HUD’s Homeless Data Exchange (HDX), HUD will post PDFs with this data for each CoC. The data in the spreadsheet reflects what was officially submitted to HUD via the HDX, and is what HUD will use in the assessment process. This data should be available no later than Thursday, January 16, 2013 and will be located on the CoC Program Competition Resources page.
- Over the past several weeks, HUD has posted FAQs on several topics, including:
- What to do with planning grants that are on the CoCs GIW, but have not been executed by December 31, 2013
- How to calculate the average length of time project participants remain in housing for ES, TH, SH, PSH and RRH programs
- What data should a CoC be comparing to determine the change in the current CoC’s sheltered and unsheltered PIT count
