HUD Opens Applications for Additional VASH Vouchers

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has announced the FY 23 HUD-Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing (VASH) Summer Registration of Interest (ROI), which makes available approximately $73 million for Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) to assist homeless veterans. HUD estimates this funding will support up to 7,500 new HUD-VASH vouchers. The funding includes $33 million in carryover funds available to award non-competitively and $40 million recently appropriated through the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023 (Public Law 117-328). Please read Notice PIH 2023-22.

Eligible HAs must submit letters of interest and commitments of support from their partnering VA Medical Centers (VAMCs) to be considered. The FY 23 Summer HUD-VASH ROI will close at midnight on Friday, September 15, 2023.  

This funding is separate from and in addition to the funding made available under Notice PIH 2023-09.  This notice also states that a future notice will provide guidance and an application process for $10 million in additional administrative fees for HUD-VASH administrators as authorized in the FY 23 Appropriations Act.
