Community Notice Regarding Deadline Extension of FY 2024-2025 HUD Continuum of Care Program Annual Funding Competition & Non-Competitive Renewal of Youth Homelessness Demonstration Projects
Multiple applicants preparing submissions for the FY24 CoC and YHDP funding competition reported issues in esnaps which prevented complete submission of their project applications. The CoC Lead reviewed this issue and determined that it was a system issue that could not be easily resolved by applicants.Â
Any applicants experiencing this issue were instructed via a distribution listserv notification to email a copy of their otherwise complete esnaps application to tpch-nofo@tucsonaz.gov and indicate the specific esnaps errors encountered. The CoC Lead then assisted each applicant to resolve these errors individually.Â
To accommodate this challenge, the local application deadline for CoC and YHDP projects was extended to 11:59pm AZ time on September 13, 2024. Any applicants needing assistance with esnaps were instructed to email tpch-nofo@tucsonaz.gov by that time.Â
Key Dates
All times listed are in Arizona time (MST, UTC-7). Late submissions may be subject to penalties up to and including rejection and forfeiture of CoC renewal funds.Â
