Program and will be used by HUD to
determine that the grant applicant meets
the requirements of the Notice of
Funding Opportunity (NOFO).
Information collected is also used to
assign points for awarding grant funds
on a competitive and equitable basis.
The information is collected via a
narrative and the budget form.
Information collected from grantees
post-award will be used by HUD to meet
its statutory program monitoring and
demonstration obligations.
HUD is required to develop a
competitive grant program to fund
nonprofit or governmental entities to
provide legal assistance (including
assistance related to pretrial activities,
trial activities, post-trial activities and
alternative dispute resolution) at no cost
to eligible low-income tenants at risk of
or subject to eviction. In connection
with the COVID–19 emergency, the
CARES Act was enacted on March 28,
2020. It placed a moratorium on
eviction in all federally-assisted housing
and federally-backed mortgages through
July 24, 2020. The expiration of that
moratorium was followed by an Order
from the Centers of Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) temporarily halting
evictions for nonpayment of rent on
September 4, 2020, which was
subsequently extended until July 31,
2021, nationally and until October 3,
2021, in areas with substantial or high
levels of community transmission of
COVID–19.
As households continue to struggle
with income loss and accumulating
back rent, the threat of evictions has
grown considerably. The Household
Pulse Survey Phase 3.1 found that the
week of June 23, 2021, over 7.4 million
renters were behind on their rent
payments and another 4.9 million were
not confident they would be able to
make next month’s payment. With the
expiration of the CDC’s national
moratorium looming, 3.6 million renters
reported eviction was likely or
somewhat likely in the next two
months. Housing instability caused by
formal and informal evictions has
significant economic, physical, and
mental consequences. Research has
found eviction protection services,
including services such as legal
representation, court navigators,
education and outreach, and assistance
