Act of 1992 (Pub. L. 102–550, approved

October 28, 1992). The program is

governed by the HOPWA Final Rule, 24

CFR Part 574, as amended, and the

Consolidated Submissions for

Community Planning and Development

Programs, Final Rule, 24 CFR Part 91, as

amended. This paper work submission

extends the current collection of

information that is used by the

Department in conducting an annual

competition to award program funds

and in reviewing grant performance

reported in annual progress reports. The

information collected is essential in

order to implement statutory

requirements.

The Housing Opportunities for

Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) program

provides housing assistance and

supportive services for low-income

persons with HIV/AIDS and their

families. Ten percent of the

appropriated funds are awarded by

competition as grants under two

categories of assistance as: (1) Special

Projects of National Significance (SPNS)

which, due to their innovation nature or

their potential for replication, are likely

to serve as effective models in

addressing the needs of eligible persons;

Applications for this category can be

submitted by States, local governments

and non-profit organizations; and (2)

Projects which are part of Long-term

Comprehensive Strategies for providing

housing and services for eligible persons

in non-formula areas. Applications for

this category can be submitted by States

and local governments to undertake

activities in areas that did not qualify

for formula allocations during the fiscal

year. Funds may be used over a three

year operating period. Grantees report to

the Department on an annual basis on

program accomplishments in annual

progress reports.
