Eligibility

Eligible Applicants: Others (see text field entitled “Additional Information on Eligibility” for clarification)
Additional Information on Eligibility: Eligible applicants are nonprofit organizations with current IRS 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status. Eligible applicants shall demonstrate a minimum of five years of tenant outreach and organizing work, using some or all of the methods described in “required and targeted outreach,” in part C, below. Applicants may work with a local, area-wide or regional team member, such as a local tenant organization, as detailed in the applicant’s staffing plan. This local organization will be considered part of the applicant’s team and will be evaluated as staff or contractor to the applicant. This team member is not required to have 501(c)(3) status and is not required a 5-year record of tenant outreach and organizing. However, the team member must not have an identity of interest with any owner or management of any property where TRN activity is proposed. Applicants may oversee multiple team members and work in multiple states or metropolitan areas, provided a separate application is submitted for each state or metropolitan area in which work will be performed.

Additional Information

Agency Name: Department of Housing and Urban Development
Description: TRN is designed to facilitate preservation of projects with Section 8 Project Based Rental Assistance at-risk of loss. TRN considers projects at-risk upon occurrence of one of the following events: an FHA insured or Direct mortgage maturity date within 24 months of the publication of the NOFA; an owner election to Opt-Out filed no more than 12 months prior to publication of the NOFA; a notice of prepayment filed no more than 12 months prior to publication of the NOFA; or the receipt of two consecutive Below 60 REAC scores (not yet under abatement), with the most recent score issued no more than 12 months prior to the publication of the NOFA. The program is intended to be one more tool to assist both owners and the Department in identifying potential preservation strategies or, in the event preservation is not feasible, to ensure that tenants are fully informed regarding available protections such as the provision of tenant protection Housing Choice Vouchers. The program will enhance the Department’s partnership with owners by providing an additional perspective on how preservation may be achieved, and will allow owners to make more fully informed decisions regarding continued participation in Multifamily programs. TRN is part of the Department’s strategy to meet the need for quality affordable rental homes through preservation of federally assisted housing. TRN-eligible properties are identified as high risk of losing their project-based rental assistance, or where tenants’ access to rental subsidy may be at risk. TRN is specifically targeting Combined Metropolitan Statistical areas with the largest numbers of TRN-eligible units, and will provide additional award funds to applicants working in these communities that are disproportionately impacted by the potential loss of assisted housing.
