Funder intelligence
Based on HUD's overarching mission, recent trends emphasize addressing systemic inequities in housing, promoting climate resilience and energy efficiency in communities, and leveraging data to inform evidence-based housing policies. There's also a continued focus on comprehensive strategies to prevent and end homelessness and expand access to affordable housing. Due to the lack of specific details on the '2 opportunities discovered', these trends are inferred from HUD's general strategic direction rather than specific active solicitations.
Proposals are typically evaluated by panels of external subject matter experts and HUD staff based on published criteria, followed by internal program office review and final selection.
