This grant opportunity aims to address the intersection of HIV/AIDS, violence against women, and gender-related health disparities by providing housing assistance and supportive services to low-income individuals living with HIV/AIDS who are victims of domestic violence. Grantees will receive two separate grants from HUD: a HOPWA grant for housing assistance and planning activities, and a Transitional Housing Assistance Program grant for supportive services. The ultimate goal is to develop a Housing and Services (HAS) Model to enhance coordination and resource utilization among HIV/AIDS housing and domestic violence service providers, with findings contributing to national and community policies.

Eligibility
Eligible Applicants: | Others (see text field entitled “Additional Information on Eligibility” for clarification) |
Additional Information on Eligibility: | Eligible applicants for funding under this NOFA are States, units of local government, and nonprofit organizations. Because selected applicants will receive a HOPWA grant and a Transitional Housing Assistance Program grant, eligibility under this demonstration will be limited to entities that are eligible to receive grant funding under both programs. To be eligible as a unit of local government, the applicant must be a general purpose political subdivision of a State, such as a city, county, township, town, borough, parish, or village. All State and unit of local government applications must come from an individual who has the authority to apply for and accept grant awards on behalf of the jurisdiction. Applications received from agencies or departments within a unit of local government (e.g., the City Department of Social Services) will not be considered for funding under this NOFA. HUD will view applications coming from agencies or departments within a unit of local government as having a curable deficiency due to the unique nature of the eligibility requirements for this demonstration. States and units of local government applying for funding under this NOFA are expected to provide funding to project sponsors with expertise in HIV housing and services, and sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, or stalking services. For example, the City of Somewhere may apply as the grantee and coordinate administrative functions, but it must provide funding to project sponsors to carry out project activities. Project Sponsors could include an AIDS service organization coordinating eligible housing activities with HOPWA grant funds, and a sexual assault service provider coordinating supportive service activities with Transitional Housing Assistance Program grant funds. The applicant is expected to increase coordination among community organizations to improve cross-agency planning, resource utilization, and service integration among HIV/AIDS housing providers and domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking service providers. Individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorship organizations are not eligible to compete for, or receive, awards made under this announcement. |

Description: | Grants funded under this initiative will implement one of the recommendations of the Interagency Federal Working Group on the Intersection of HIV/AIDS, Violence against Women and Girls, and Gender-Related Health Disparities: to enhance federal efforts to address HIV and intimate partner violence (IPV) among homeless and marginally housed women and girls. These grants will also help further the goals and objectives of the National HIV/AIDS Strategy (NHAS), which calls for enhanced collaboration at the Federal, State and community level, among diverse agencies and partners to maximize efficient use of resources to achieve its goals. The activities funded under this NOFA will support the NHAS goals – to reduce HIV infection; to increase access to care and improve health outcomes for person living with HIV/AIDS; and to reduce HIV-related disparities. These goals will be accomplished through improved cross-agency coordination, resource utilization and service integration among HIV/AIDS housing providers and domestic violence service providers.This NOFA announces funds available for projects that provide housing assistance and supportive services to low-income persons living with HIV/AIDS who are also victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking, including any minors and dependents living with such persons. Each successful applicant under this initiative will receive two separate one-time only, non-renewable grants from HUD: (1) a HOPWA grant, and (2) a Transitional Housing Assistance Program grant. HOPWA grant funds will be used for housing assistance for program participants, coordination and planning activities, and grant management and administration. Transitional Housing Assistance grant funds will be used to provide supportive services for program participants. As a result of project efforts, communities will be assisted in the development of a Housing and Services (HAS) Model to be issued at the end of the third year of operation. This HAS Model document will be an administrative function and should provide clear lessons learned and best practices for providing housing assistance and appropriate supportive services for persons living with HIV/AIDS who are victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Each HAS Model will be shared with the public, and lessons learned through these grantee efforts will help inform national and community policy and actions. |
