Opportunity Information: Apply for FR 6300 N 33
The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Fiscal Year 2019 Comprehensive Housing Counseling Grant Program is a discretionary grant opportunity (NOFA FR 6300 N 33; CFDA 14.169) designed to fund housing counseling services delivered by HUD-approved housing counseling agencies. The core goal is to help people make informed housing decisions and remain stably housed by providing practical counseling and advice to renters, current homeowners, and prospective homebuyers. HUD frames the program as part of its broader effort to stabilize housing markets and reduce housing insecurity by helping individuals and families obtain housing, keep their housing, and navigate the responsibilities that come with renting or owning a home.
The funding is intended to support agencies that can respond flexibly to local needs and deliver a wide range of counseling services. The NOFA highlights counseling topics such as property maintenance and upkeep, financial management, and financial literacy, along with other guidance that can help clients improve their housing conditions and meet household financial needs. In practice, this includes helping households understand budgeting, credit, and affordability; supporting renters and homeowners in problem-solving with landlords or servicers; and preparing prospective buyers for the long-term obligations of homeownership. HUD also explicitly includes service to people experiencing homelessness as part of the population that counseling agencies may support, emphasizing the program’s role across the full continuum of housing instability.
A major emphasis of the NOFA is reaching populations that have historically faced barriers to fair and stable housing. HUD specifically calls out underserved groups such as minorities, older adults, veterans, people with disabilities, people with limited English proficiency, and residents of rural areas, noting that these communities often experience unique housing and economic challenges. The program’s counseling model is positioned as a way to provide expert, unbiased information that helps households navigate complex housing systems, avoid costly mistakes, and access appropriate housing options and assistance programs.
The NOFA also underscores a consumer-protection function. HUD describes housing counseling agencies as a safeguard against housing scams and discrimination, suggesting that counseling providers help clients recognize fraudulent practices, understand their rights, and avoid predatory or deceptive transactions. Beyond direct counseling, HUD points to these agencies as an important access point or “gateway” that connects clients to local, state, federal, and private resources, meaning grantees are expected to play a coordination role by referring clients to other forms of housing support and financial assistance when needed.
Administratively, the opportunity was published by HUD with a creation date of May 24, 2019, and an original application deadline of July 1, 2019. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. HUD anticipated making around 250 awards, with an award ceiling listed at $3,000,000. Eligibility is listed as “Others,” with additional eligibility details referenced as being provided in the full NOFA text, but the description makes clear that the funding is meant to support HUD-approved housing counseling agencies delivering comprehensive counseling services in their communities.Apply for FR 6300 N 33
