ROSS-SC FY25 NOFO Applications Due January 20

Applicants of the Resident Opportunity and Self Sufficiency Service Coordinator (ROSS-SC) program have until January 20, 2026 to submit applications.

The NOFO, which was extended by eight days, includes several modifications that were made by HUD “…to make the NOFO more consistent and easier for applicants to understand.” These modifications include requiring a community needs assessment to cover at least 20 percent of households in targeted projects; eligibility changes specifically pertaining to RAD PBRA and RAD PBV units; updated match requirements; letters of support requirements; new page limits for narrative forms; scoring changes specifically for timely use of funds and data availability scores; and submission requirements related to forms HUD-52755, HUD-52753, HUD-52752, and the ROSS Narrative Statement.

Modifications to the NOFO can be found in HUD’s modification document here.

The ROSS-SC program assists eligible applicants to hire service coordinators who provide supportive services to participants of the ROSS program. Up to $40 million in grant funds will be made available to an estimated 114 grantees. The minimum amount of funding available is $272,255 and the maximum is $816,750. Applicants can apply here.
