SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
Notice announces the availability of
capital funds for assistance under VA’s
Homeless Providers Grant and Per Diem
Program for eligible entities to: (1)
Expand existing transitional housing
projects; or (2) develop new transitional
housing programs. Supportive service
centers will not be considered in this

Capital grant applicants may not
receive assistance to replace funds
provided by any State or local
government to assist homeless persons.
Note: Applicants considering the use of
Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) in
conjunction with the capital grants in this
NOFA should take into account that these tax
credits are often used for permanent housing
projects. Permanent housing is not an eligible
activity under VA’s Homeless Providers
Grant and Per Diem Program. Other issues
such as site control, leases for residents, and
using the grant funds as a loan may be
problematic to applicants even if transitional
housing is provided and upon review and
discovery may result in the application being
denied.
A proposal for an existing project that
seeks to shift its focus by changing the
population being served or the precise
mix of services being offered is not
eligible for consideration. No more than
25 percent of housing and services
available in projects funded through this
grant program may be provided to
clients who are not receiving those
services as veterans.
VA is pleased to issue this NOFA for
the Homeless Providers Grant and Per
Diem Program. The Department expects
to award approximately $15 million
under the capital grant component.
Funding available under this NOFA is
being offered to help offset the capital
expenses of existing state and local
governments, Indian Tribal
Governments, faith-based, and
community-based organizations that are
capable of creating and providing
supported transitional housing for
homeless veterans. The District of
Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto
Rico, any territory or possession of the
United States, are considered eligible
entities under the definition of ‘‘State’’
in the Final Rule, Sec. 61.1 Definitions.
Note, all organizations that are
conditionally selected will be requested
to submit the Second Submission
portion of the application package. In
order to be considered eligible for
funding, organizations must
demonstrate in the Second Submission
firm commitments of match for 35% of
the total project cost or the difference
between the total project cost and what
is requested from VA, whichever is
greater.
Per diem for these programs is
requested in the grant application and
may be paid at the time of grant project
completion. It should be noted that VA
per diem payment is limited to the
applicant’s cost of care per eligible
veteran minus other sources of
payments to the applicant for furnishing
services to homeless veterans up to the
per day rate VA pays for State Home
