REMINDER: FY2022 NOFA Response Submission: The Program Office has simplified the NOFA response submission this year and will only require grantees to submit a letter of intent to continue services through FY2022 or FY2023 for Priority 3 submissions, Budget & CoC distribution (Exhibit I-III), and proof of accreditation, when applicable. All grantees must complete the NOFA submission process in the grants management system by filling out required fields in the Intent to Renew form and uploading the budget template. Grantees must submit all materials by the deadline of February 5, 2021, at 4 PM ET.
The SSVF Program Office will not require a full application or letters of support from the CoC or VAMC with the submission this year. Although letters of support are not required, the SSVF Program Office expects grantees to continue planning with their local CoCs and VAMCs during the pandemic and throughout the grant year.
REMINDER: Upcoming Webinar: Grants Management System Contacts: The SSVF Program Office will be conducting a webinar on the Grants Management System contacts in the next few weeks. Information and registration details will be disseminated through the weekly Program Update. Thank you for your patience as we transition to the new system.
NEW: Health Care Navigator Materials Uploaded to the SSVF Website: The SSVF Program Office continues to publish webinars, online curricula and other supporting guidance/documents to support healthcare navigators' work - all of which can be accessed on the SSVF University or at the Housing Skills Practice Center. The SSVF Program Office has uploaded a new presentation to the SSVF website; grantees can access the latest materials here: https://www.va.gov/HOMELESS/ssvf/docs/HCN_CoP_Session_1.pptx
