Executive Summary
This contract was selected for Department of Housing Stability (HOST) funding as a result of the department’s Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) procurement process.
HOST initiated a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) procurement process last August, as a basis for awarding many of the department’s housing opportunity, housing stability and homelessness resolution programs/services contracts for 2021. HOST sought proposals for a variety of programs and services utilizing both federal and local funds.
The 2021 Housing Opportunity, Housing Stability, and Homelessness Resolution Programs NOFA specifically solicited proposals for programs or services to fund activities in the following areas:
• Housing programs or services
• Housing stability
• Homelessness resolution
• Innovative programs and services
• Professional facilitation services
Federal funding sources identified under the NOFA include Community Development Block Grant Program, Home Investment Partnerships Program, Emergency Solutions Grants, Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS Program, and CARES Act resources to support coronavirus response. Local/other funding sources included General Fund, Affordable Housing Fund, foundations, and individual donors that support housing development, preservation, and programmatic assistance for low- and moderate-income residents.
HOST is currently finalizing contracts associated with the NOFA procurement process and will bring forward contracts exceeding $500,000 for City Council review and approval throughout early 2021.
This agreement creates a $1,533,600 contract between HOST and Northeast Denver Housing Center Inc. (NDHC) to administer the Temporary Rental and Utility Assistance (TRUA) Program. NDHC will provide emergency housing rental assistance and utility assistance to eligible households in the City and County of Denver earning up to 80% of the area median income.
