Network Notes
- HOPWA is the dedicated federal source of capital to develop housing for people with HIV/AIDS. Funds are split between HOPWA's federal Competitive Program (10%) and its Formula Program (90%). Competitive grant funds may be used for acquisition, development, rehabilitation and construction-related costs.
- Since 2001, it has been mandatory that competitive grants be directed toward renewals. If funding remains, however, grants are distributed under the annual Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) competition to two types of projects: Special Projects of National Significance (SPNS) or New Long-Term Projects. SPNS are considered innovative, directed toward underserved populations, and expected to serve as national models. New long-term projects provide supportive housing in areas that do not qualify for HOPWA formula programs; as a result, New York State is not eligible for new long-term projects.
