Public Notice MIAMI-DADE COUNTY HOMELESS TRUST REQUEST FOR APPLICATIONS (RFA) FOR INCLUSION IN THE U.S. HUD NOTICE OF FUNDING OPPORTUNITY (NOFO) & HOMELESS PREVENTION FOOD AND BEVERAGE AND RIGHT AT HOME FUNDING Miami-Dade County, through the Miami-Dade County Homeless Trust (Homeless Trust), is requesting proposals for two major funding sources. (1) New and renewal project applications will be sought as part of our collaborative application to U.S. HUD for the FY 2026 CoC Program Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) and (2) new Homeless Prevention funding is being made available through Food and Beverage (F&B) and Right At Home (RAH). The RFA will allow for: • renewal of Coordinated Entry and Street Outreach, and the limited renewal of existing Permanent Supportive Housing CoC grants expiring in Calendar Year 2027, • new transitional housing, permanent housing and supportive services only projects, including those created with DV Bonus, CoC Bonus, and the reallocation of existing renewal projects, and • new Homeless Prevention. Through the NOFO, CoCs are being asked to direct resources towards interventions and assistance that help people regain self-sufficiency. Consistent with Executive Order 14321 “Ending Crime and Disorder on America’s Streets,” CoCs are encouraged to work with law enforcement, first responders, and their state and local governments to reduce encampments, public camping, and public drug use in order to address barriers to maintaining housing and increasing self-sufficiency. Funding being sought as part of this solicitation is contingent on respondents being selected by the Selection Committee appointed by the Miami-Dade County Mayor and U.S. HUD awarding NOFO funding to our community.
