"That 2025 NOFO that dropped in November was the precursor of what the future's gonna look like. I strongly believe that, for the majority of wild and crazy things in that NOFO, that is what's going to drop in July of 2026. If that happens, dozens of people in the region could fall back into homelessness."
A federal judge forced HUD to reinstate previous grant criteria for the 2025 NOFO after changes were challenged. However, housing advocates remain concerned about future policy shifts. McKenzie from CHSP believes the November 2025 NOFO represents a preview of more restrictive criteria expected in July 2026. These anticipated changes could have severe consequences for vulnerable populations in the region. If implemented, the new criteria could result in dozens of people falling back into homelessness. The advocacy community is preparing for continued legal and policy battles to protect existing grant structures and housing assistance programs.
