Additional HUD Guidance:
FY2011 Project Listing
The CoC Project Listing in Exhibit 1 requires each CoC to upload, review, and accept or reject all projects; in addition, CoCs must also rank all new projects. The FY2011 Project Listing Instructions document identifies the steps to meet these requirements.
FY2011 CoC Names/Numbers, Geo Codes and Preliminary Pro Rata Need Amounts
HUD developed a FY2011 list of CoC names and numbers and has released a Preliminary Pro Rata Need (PPRN) report, which contains CoC geographies and corresponding need amounts.
Supportive Housing Program (SHP) and Shelter Plus Care (SPC) Grant Inventory Workbook Reference Materials
A sample grant inventory workbook is available as a resource to CoCs. GIWs are used to provide CoCs and Field Offices with information about SHP and SPC grants that are eligible for renewal in the FY2011 competition. GIW instructions and information on renewal eligibility are provided in the sample grant inventory workbook.
Guidance for Merging CoCs
CoCs sometimes consider consolidating, or merging, with one or more other CoCs to achieve improved coordination of services, more efficient resource allocation, and regional planning to address homelessness. In recognition of these advantages, HUD adopted a policy for calculating Pro-Rata Need that ensures that CoCs will not lose funds by merging.
DUN and Bradstreet DUNS Number Guide
Most potential and existing U.S. Government Contractors, Grantees and Loan Recipients are required to obtain a Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) Number for US Government registration purposes. The DUNS Number verifies the legal name, physical address and tradestyle (DBA) of each location and is the key to starting the CCR registration process. Refer to the following guide for more information:
Calculating Unmet Need for Homeless Individuals and Families
The following guidance will assist your community in preparing the McKinney-Vento application and undertaking long-term program planning. HUD has developed this guidance to assist CoCs in completing the unmet need calculation. However, communities may choose to continue using their own procedures to determine unmet need. The guidance introduces standardized formulas and procedures for calculating unmet need and identifies the data needed for the calculations. A document called "Worksheets for Calculating Unmet Need" is also available to assist with these calculations.
