Notice of Funding Availability for Service Coordinators for Public Housing Agencies

SUMMARY: This NOFA announces the availability of up to $46.043 million

in funding for service coordinators and supportive services for elderly

and non-elderly disabled residents in public housing. The service

coordinators in public housing program is a comprehensive effort to

ensure that elderly and non-elderly disabled residents have access to

the services they need to enhance the quality of life, to live

independently, and to avoid premature or unnecessary

institutionalization.

In this NOFA, a new and streamlined grant application/award process

is implemented. HUD headquarters will conduct a national lottery

competition for public housing agencies (PHAs) to determine funding

awards. In this lottery competition, eligible PHAs must submit an

application with a minimum amount of documentation to pass screening

and selection criteria for inclusion in the lottery competition.

In the body of this NOFA is information concerning:

(1) The principal objectives of the competition, the funding

available, eligible applicants, and screening and selection criteria;

(2) The application process, including how to apply and how

selections will be made; and

(3) A checklist of application submission requirements.

DATES: The due date for submission of applications in response to this

NOFA is April 28, 1995. Applications must be postmarked by midnight, or

hand-delivered to the local HUD Office by 3:00 p.m. on April 28, 1995.

A Fax copy is not acceptable. The above-stated application deadline is

firm as to date, hour and place. In the interest of fairness to all

competing applicants, the Department will treat as ineligible for

consideration any application that is received after the deadline.

Applicants should take this practice into account and make early

submission of their materials to avoid any risk of loss of eligibility

brought about by unanticipated delays or other delivery-related

problems.

I. Purpose and Substantive Description

(A)(1) Authority

This program is authorized by section 673 of the Housing and

Community Development Act of 1992 (codified at 42 USC 13631; hereafter

referred to as ``1992 HCD Act'').

(A)(2) 24 CFR Part 135

Section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968 and the

regulations at 24 CFR part 135 (see June 30, 1994 Interim Rule, 59 FR

33866) are applicable to funding awards made under this NOFA. One of

the purposes of the assistance is to give to the greatest extent

feasible, and consistent with existing Federal, State and local laws

and regulations, job training, employment, contracting and other

economic opportunities to section 3 residents and section 3 business

concerns.

(B) Background

The service coordinators in public housing program is a

comprehensive effort to ensure that elderly and non-elderly disabled

residents have access to the services they need to live independently,

regardless of the type of unit in which they reside in the public

housing development, and to prevent placement in nursing homes or

institutions.

A service coordinator is hired by a public housing authority (PHA)

and is responsible for assuring that the elderly and disabled residents

are linked to needed supportive services. Service coordination may be

performed by: An on-site staff person hired by the PHA for a project or

shared between PHA projects; an on-site staff person hired from a third

party agency, and contracted to one or more projects; an on-site staff

person hired by a third party agency, and contracted to one or more PHA

projects; or a staff person hired by a third party agency hired by the

PHA, who provides case management and services coordination for a PHA

resident in concert with the distribution of that agency or another

agency's funding.

The major functions of the service coordinator are:

--To provide general case management and referral services to all

residents needing such assistance;

--To establish linkage with all agencies and service providers in the

community;

--To set out a directory of providers for use by both PHA staff and

residents;

--To refer and link the residents of the PHA to service providers in

the general community;

--To educate residents on service availability, application,

procedures, client rights;

--To develop case plans in coordination with assessment services in the

community or with a Professional Assessment Committee (as defined in

Sec. 802(e)(3)(B) of the National Affordable Housing Act, codified at

42 U.S.C. 8011);

--To monitor the ongoing provision of services from community agencies

and to keep the case management and provider agency current with the

progress of the individual;

--To set up volunteer support programs with service organizations in

the community; [[Page 10765]]

--To help the residents build support networks with other residents,

family and friends;

--To provide training to PHA residents in the obligation of tenancy or

coordinate such training;

--To educate other staff on the management team on issues related to

aging in place and service coordination, to help them to better work

with and assist residents.

Each service coordinator shall be trained in the aging process,

elder services, disability services, eligibility for and procedures of

Federal and applicable State entitlement programs, legal liability

issues relating to providing service coordination, drug and alcohol use

and abuse by the elderly, and mental health issues.

In accordance with section 673 of the Housing and Community

Development Act Amendments of 1992, the grant may include funding for

up to 15 percent of the costs of eligible supportive services, in

addition to the costs specifically associated with the service

coordinator. The PHA will be required to show that at least 85 percent

of the costs of related supported services will be paid with non-grant

funds.

Eligible supportive services include health-related services,

mental health services, services for non-medical counseling, meals,

transportation, personal care, bathing, toileting, housekeeping, chore

assistance, safety, group and socialization activities, assistance with

medications (in accordance with any applicable State laws), case

management, personal emergency response, and other appropriate

services.

Finally, in accordance with section 673 of the 1992 HCD Act,

supportive services funded by this competition may not be provided to

any person receiving assistance under the Congregate Housing Services

Act of 1978 or Section 802 of the Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable

Housing Act.

(C) Allocation Amounts

For FY 1994, the Department of Veterans Affairs and Housing and

Urban Development, and Independent Agencies Appropriations Act, 1994

(Pub. L. 103-124, Approved October 28, 1993) made $30 million available

for the service coordinators in public housing program. For FY 1995,

the Department of Veterans Affairs and Housing and Urban Development,

and Independent Agencies Appropriations Act, 1995 (Pub. L. 103-327,

approved September 28, 1994) made $30 million available for the service

coordinators in public housing program. Together these two

appropriations bills make approximately $60 million available to PHAs

for service coordinators in public housing. However, since some of the

appropriated funds are to be derived from carryover funds or the

recapture of prior year obligations, the actual amount available is

$46.043 million.

In this competition, an eligible PHA may apply for a three year

grant. The funding level is based on the number of elderly and disabled

families in the PHA's occupied units:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Maximum

Elderly/disabled families in PHA occupied units dollars

per PHA

------------------------------------------------------------------------

250 to 499.................................................. 90,000

500 to 999.................................................. 150,000

1,000 to 9,999.............................................. 675,000

10,000 +.................................................... 1,875,000

------------------------------------------------------------------------

The funds are to be used for: (1) The cost of employing or

otherwise retaining the services of one or more service coordinators to

coordinate the provision of supportive services for residents who are

elderly families and disabled families; and (2) the expenses for the

provision of services for such residents of the PHA. In addition, not

more than 15 percent of the cost of providing supportive services is

eligible for funding under this grant; however, the 15 percent cost for

the provision of supportive services is an optional feature of this

grant.

The amounts allocated under this NOFA will be awarded based on a

national lottery for selection from all PHAs that pass both the

screening and selection criteria. The Department reserves the right to

award grants less than the amount requested by the PHA, as described

below.

As PHAs are selected, the costs of funding the applications will be

counted against the total funds available under this NOFA. Applications

will be funded in full in accordance with this NOFA. However, when the

remaining funds are insufficient to fund the last PHA application in

full, HUD Headquarters may fund that application to the extent of the

funding available and the PHA's willingness to accept a reduced award

amount. PHAs that do not wish to have the size of their award reduced

may indicate in their ``Letter of Intent'' (described below) that they

do not wish to be considered for a reduced award of funds. HUD

Headquarters will skip over these PHAs if assigning the remaining

funding would result in a reduced funding level.

After the lottery, Headquarters will award grants to the local HUD

offices under that jurisdiction by fund assignment for the total number

of PHAs approved in the competition. Within the limits of available

federal funds, HUD will make grant awards consistent with the statute

and the requirements in this NOFA.

(D) Eligibility

(1) Eligible Applicants

(a) Eligible applicants are PHAs operating low-rent conventional

public housing with at least 250 or more elderly, or disabled families.

However, two or more PHAs, in the same geographical area with fewer

than 250 elderly or disabled families, may submit a joint application.

(b) To be an eligible applicant, the PHA(s) must also have a good

record of maintaining and operating public housing as determined by the

Public Housing Management Assessment Program (PHMAP) (see 24 CFR Part

901). In this NOFA, a PHA can establish a ``good record of maintaining

and operating public housing'' if (1) the PHA has earned a PHMAP score

of 60 or more points; (2) the PHA has instituted an Improvement Plan

that is acceptable to the local HUD Office; or (3) the PHA is operating

under a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA). Local HUD Offices will verify

that the PHA has complied with all requirements, including verification

of a passing PHMAP score, or an Improvement Plan that is satisfactory

to the local HUD Office or a MOA, and an explanation of the PHA's

ability to implement the elderly service coordinator project as noted

above.

(2) Ineligible Applicants

Ineligible applicants are PHAs for which:

(a) The Department of Justice has brought a civil rights suit

against the applicant PHA, and the suit is pending;

(b) There has been an adjudication of a civil rights violation in a

civil action brought against the PHA by a private individual, unless

the PHA is operating in compliance with court order, or implementing a

HUD approved tenant selection and assignment plan or compliance

agreement designed to correct the areas of noncompliance;

(c) There are outstanding findings of noncompliance with civil

rights statutes, Executive Orders, or regulations as a result of formal

administrative proceedings, or the Secretary has issued a charge

against the applicant under the Fair Housing Act, unless the applicant

is operating under a conciliation or compliance agreement designed to

correct the areas of noncompliance;

(d) HUD has deferred application processing by HUD under title VI

of the [[Page 10766]] Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Attorney General's

Guidelines (28 CFR 50.3) and the HUD title VI regulations (24 CFR 1.8)

and procedures (HUD Handbook 8040.1) or under section 504 of the

Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and HUD regulations (24 CFR 8.57); or

(e) There are serious unaddressed Inspector General Audit findings,

Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity monitoring review findings, or local

HUD office management review findings.

II. Application Process

(A) Application Deadline

The due date for submission of applications in response to this

NOFA is April 28, 1995. Applications must be postmarked by midnight, or

hand-delivered to the local HUD Office by 3:00 P.M. on April 28, 1995.

A Fax is not acceptable. (See Appendix A for a listing of local HUD

Offices.) The above-stated application deadline is firm as to date,

hour and place. In the interest of fairness to all competing

applicants, the Department will treat as ineligible for consideration

any application that is received after the deadline. Applicants should

take this practice into account and make early submission of their

materials to avoid any risk of loss of eligibility brought about by

unanticipated delays or other delivery-related problems.

(B) Screening Criteria

All PHAs will automatically be notified by the local HUD Office of

the receipt of their letter and accompanying documentation and will be

informed if they pass the screening criteria. To ensure minimum

standards of equity and fairness, the local HUD Office will screen all

PHA applications for completeness to determine conformity to the

requirements of this announcement. PHAs which do not pass the screening

criteria will receive no further consideration for the lottery. PHAs

that fail to submit any of the documents accompanying the ``Letter of

Intent'' will not be eligible to participate in the lottery.

The screening criteria are as follows:

(i) The PHA submits an application package consisting of a ``Letter

of Intent,'' and all required accompanying documentation set forth in

section III(A) in a timely fashion in accordance with section II(A) of

this NOFA;

(ii) The PHA meets the eligibility requirements set forth in

section I(D) of this NOFA.

(C) Selection Criteria

PHAs that meet the eligibility requirements outlined in this NOFA,

and submit all of the required information will pass the screening

criteria. PHAs passing the screening criteria will be further reviewed

by an independent review panel of at least two individuals in each

local HUD Office to give each application a ``pass'' or ``fail''

determination in the following criteria:

(i) Proposed funding amount. The Standard Form 424--Application for

Federal Assistance requests an amount of funds not to exceed the amount

specified in the funding categories for PHAs in section I(C) of this

NOFA; and Standard Form 424A--Budget Information--Non-Construction

Programs.

(ii) Evidence of Need for Assistance. The PHA provides:

(a) Documentation evidencing the number of elderly/disabled

families residing in the PHA that will be served by the grant;

(b) Documentation briefly describing key problem(s)/condition(s)

relevant to the need for the grant;

(c) If optional supportive services will be provided in the grant,

verification of access to pertinent supportive services to address the

needs of the residents; and a discussion of the relevant supportive

services that will be provided, and the PHA's ability to acquire other

sources of funds to assist in the procurement of needed supportive

services. (Other sources of funds may be ``in-kind'' services or other

volunteer-type services from the community.)

(iii) Verification of PHMAP Score. Supporting documentation

evidencing either a PHMAP score of at least 60 points, an approved

Improvement Plan or MOA;

(iv) Forms. Submission of the following forms:

(1) Drug-Free Workplace Certification,

(2) Assurances--Non-Construction Programs--Standard Form SF-424B,

(3) Applicant/Recipient Disclosure/Update Report--Form HUD-2880,

and

(4) Disclosure of Lobbying Activities--(SF-LLL Form), if applicable

(see Section V.G of this NOFA).

(D) Selection Process

Headquarters will select all eligible PHAs to be funded based on a

lottery. All PHAs identified by the local HUD Offices as passing the

screening and selection criteria identified in this NOFA will be

eligible for the national lottery selection process. Local HUD Offices

will submit a memorandum with the amount of the grant, name and other

basic information of eligible PHAs passing the screening and selection

criteria to HUD Headquarters, Office of Public and Indian Housing,

Office of Community Relations and Involvement, Room 4112, Attention:

Bertha Jones. HUD will hold the lottery in the Office of Public and

Indian Housing at HUD Headquarters, 451 7th street, S.W., Washington,

DC 20410, upon receipt of the names of all ``passing'' PHAs. After

Headquarters conducts the lottery, Headquarters will notify the local

HUD Offices of the results of the lottery. Local HUD Offices will then

notify the PHAs of the results of the Lottery.

III. Checklist of Application Submission Requirements

(A) Application Requirements.

Applicants must complete and submit applications in accordance with

instructions contained in this NOFA. Each applicant may submit only one

application under this announcement. If two or more PHAs are jointly

making a request for funds and plan to share a service coordinator, one

applicant must act as the ``lead PHA'' and submit a transmittal letter

covering all requests, which must be submitted to HUD together. This

insures that all multiple requests are reviewed as one package.

The following is a checklist of the application contents.

Interested PHAs must submit a ``Letter of Intent'' to compete in the

lottery. The ``Letter of Intent'' and supporting documentation

described below should not exceed 15 pages, and must be arranged and

identified in the application in the order in which it appears below.

Section I--Proposed funding amount.

(a) The Standard Form 424--Application for Federal Assistance

should include the amount of funds being requested not to exceed the

amount specified in the funding categories for PHAs in section I(C) of

this NOFA.

(b) Standard Form SF-424A--Budget Information--Non-Construction

Programs should also be included in Section I.

Section II--Evidence of need for assistance.

(a) Documentation providing evidence of the number of elderly/

disabled families residing in the PHA that are eligible to be served by

this grant. Documentation briefly describing key problem(s)/

condition(s) relevant to the needs of the elderly and non-elderly

disabled residents;

(b) Description of any optional supportive services that will be

provided including the costs associated with providing the supportive

services. Applicants should note that a PHA is not required to use any

portion of the grant to cover the costs of the supportive

[[Page 10767]] services. However, the grant may not be used to cover

more than 15 percent of the costs of supportive services (i.e. if the

PHA elects to provide supportive services for its eligible residents,

then the PHA must provide or obtain other sources of funds to cover at

least 85 percent of the costs of supportive services).

(c) If the PHA elects to use the grant to cover up to 15 percent of

the costs of supportive services, then the PHA must also submit written

commitments, contracts or letters of agreement evidencing: (1) The

total costs of the proposed supportive services; (2) the availability

of non-grant funds to cover at least 85% of the costs of the supportive

services. (However ``in-kind'' services or other volunteer-type

services from the community may be used in lieu of non-grant funds.)

The written commitments, contracts or letters of agreement must be

executed by an authorized individual on behalf of the organization or

entity providing either the non-grant funding or the ``in-kind''

services.

Section III--Verification of passing PHMAP score or appropriate

explanation.

If the housing authority received a PHMAP score of less than 60, it

should include appropriate documentation of its Improvement Plan or

MOA, and its ability to implement the elderly services coordinator

project.

Section IV--Certifications, Assurances and Forms.

(a) Certification of compliance with all applicable civil rights

laws and requirements;

(b) Drug-Free Workplace Certification;

(c) Assurances--Non-Construction Programs--Standard Form SF-424B;

(d) Applicant/Recipient Disclosure/Update Report--Form HUD-2880;

and

(e) Disclosure of Lobbying Activities--(SF-LLL Form), if applicable

(see Section V.G of this NOFA).

IV. Corrections to Deficient Applications

To be eligible for processing, an application must be received by

the local HUD Office no later than the application deadline date and

time specified in this NOFA. The local HUD Office will screen all

applications and notify PHAs of technical deficiencies by letter.

Allowable corrections relate only to technical items, as determined by

HUD, such as a missing signature on a certification or a missing page

from a required document. (However, failure to submit a required

document will constitute a ``failure'' of the screening criteria, and

the application will be rejected as incomplete.)

All PHAs must submit corrections within 14 calendar days from the

date of HUD's letter notifying the applicant of any technical

deficiency. Information received after 3:00 p.m. local time on the

fourteenth calendar day of the correction period will not be accepted

and the application will be rejected as being incomplete.

V. Other Matters

A. Environmental Review

In accordance with 40 CFR 1508.4 of the regulations of the Council

on Environmental Quality and 24 CFR 50.20(o)(4) of the HUD regulations,

the policies and procedures contained in this NOFA relate only to the

provision of supportive services, and therefore, are categorically

excluded from the requirements of the National Environmental Policy

Act.

B. Executive Order 12612, Federalism

The General Counsel, as the Designated Official under section 6(a)

of Executive Order 12612, Federalism, has determined that the

provisions of this NOFA do not have ``federalism implications'' within

the meaning of the Order. The NOFA makes funds available to PHAs to

employ or otherwise retain the services of service coordinators, and to

provide for supportive services for elderly or disabled residents of

the PHA. As such, there are no direct implications on the relationship

between the Federal government and the states or on the distribution of

power and responsibilities among various levels of government.

C. Executive Order 12606, The Family

The General Counsel, as the Designated Official under Executive

Order 12606, The Family, has determined that this NOFA will not have a

significant impact on the formation, maintenance, and general well-

being of families except indirectly to the extent of the social and

other benefits expected from this program of assistance.

D. Documentation and Public Access Requirements: HUD Reform Act

HUD will ensure that documentation and other information regarding

each application submitted pursuant to this NOFA are sufficient to

indicate the basis upon which assistance was provided or denied. This

material, including any letters of support, will be made available for

public inspection for a five-year period beginning not less than 30

days after the award of the assistance. Material will be made available

in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and

HUD's implementing regulations at 24 CFR part 15. In addition, HUD will

include the recipients of assistance pursuant to this NOFA in its

quarterly Federal Register notice of all recipients of HUD assistance

awarded on a competitive basis. (See 24 CFR 12.14(a) and 12.16(b), and

the notice published in the Federal Register on January 16, 1992 (57 FR

1942), for further information on these requirements.)

E. Prohibition Against Advance Information on Funding Decisions

HUD's regulation implementing section 103 of the HUD Reform Act was

published on May 13, 1991 (56 FR 22088) and became effective on June

12, 1991. That regulation, codified as 24 CFR part 4, applies to the

funding competition announced today. The requirements of the rule

continue to apply until the announcement of the selection of successful

applicants.

HUD employees involved in the review of applications and in the

making of funding decisions are restrained by part 4 from providing

advance information to any person (other than an authorized employee of

HUD) concerning funding decisions, or from otherwise giving any

applicant an unfair competitive advantage. Persons who apply for

assistance in this competition should confine their inquiries to the

subject areas permitted under 24 CFR part 4.

Applicants who have questions should contact the HUD Office of

Ethics (202) 708-3815. (This is not a toll-free number.) The Office of

Ethics can provide information of a general nature to HUD employees, as

well. However, a HUD employee who has specific program questions, such

as whether particular subject matter can be discussed with persons

outside the Department, should contact the assistant general counsel

for the geographical region or Field Office Counsel, or Headquarters

counsel for the program to which the question pertains.

F. Prohibition Against Lobbying of HUD Personnel

Section 13 of the Department of Housing and Urban Development Act

(42 U.S.C. 3537b) contains two provisions dealing with efforts to

influence HUD's decisions with respect to financial assistance. The

first imposes disclosure requirements on those who are typically

involved in these efforts--those who pay others to influence the award

of assistance or the taking of a management action by the Department

and those who are paid to provide the [[Page 10768]] influence. The

second restricts the payment of fees to those who are paid to influence

the award of HUD assistance, if the fees are tied to the number of

housing units received or are based on the amount of assistance

received, or if they are contingent upon the receipt of assistance.

Section 13 was implemented by final rule published in the Federal

Register on May 17, 1991 (56 FR 22912). The final rule is codified at

24 CFR part 86. If readers are involved in any efforts to influence the

Department in these ways, they are urged to read part 86, particularly

the examples contained in Appendix A of the regulation.

Any questions about the rule should be directed to the Office of

Ethics, Room 2158, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451

Seventh Street, S.W., Washington, D.C. 20410-3000. Telephone: (202)

708-3815 TDD: (202) 708-1112. These are not toll-free numbers. Forms

necessary for compliance with the rule may be obtained from the local

HUD office.

G. Prohibition Against Lobbying Activities

The use of funds awarded under this NOFA is subject to the

disclosure requirements and prohibitions of Section 319 of the

Department of Interior and Related Agencies Appropriations Act for

Fiscal Year 1990 (31 U.S.C. 1352) and the implementing regulations at

24 CFR part 87. These authorities prohibit recipients of federal

contracts, grants, or loans from using appropriated funds for lobbying

the Executive or Legislative Branches of the Federal Government in

connection with a specific contract, grant, or loan. The prohibition

also covers the awarding of contracts, grants, cooperative agreements,

or loans unless the recipient has made an acceptable certification

regarding lobbying. Under 24 CFR part 87, applicants, recipients, and

subrecipients of assistance exceeding $100,000 must certify that no

federal funds have been or will be spent on lobbying activities in

connection with the assistance.

Authority: 42 U.S.C. 1437g(a)(1)(B).

Dated: February 17, 1995.
