                     Unsheltered and Rural Homelessness Special NOFO Competition. *OMB Approval Number:*
                     2506-0218. *Type of Request:*

                     SF-424, HUD-2991, HUD-2993, HUD-2880, SF-LLL, HUD-50070 HUD 40090-4. *Description of the need for the information and proposed use:*
                     Section 231 of the Department of Housing and Urban Development Appropriations Act, 2020 (42 U.S.C. 11364a; Pub. L. 116-94, approved December 20, 2019) provided HUD with authority to use recaptured CoC Program funds for four purposes, two of which area: (1) Grants under the Continuum of Care program under Subtitle C of title IV of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 11381 
                    *et seq.*); and (2) Not less than 10 percent of the amounts shall be used only for grants in rural areas under the Continuum of Care program, to include activities eligible under the Rural Housing Stability Assistance program under section 491 of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 11408) that are not otherwise eligible under the Continuum of Care program. HUD is providing funding for Continuums of Care (CoCs) using these authorities to help them address unsheltered homelessness and, in rural areas, to implement the unique strategies often needed to reduce homelessness and to add resources and infrastructure that is lacking. Without asking for this information, HUD will be unable to ensure the communities awarded have the capacity to implement projects that support an overall strategy, based in data and evidence, to reduce unsheltered homelessness and amongst those individuals who are most vulnerable.
