Opportunity Information: Apply for FR 6600 N 23
The Community Development Block Grant Program for Indian Tribes and Alaska Native Villages, commonly referred to as the Indian Community Development Block Grant (ICDBG) program, is a discretionary grant opportunity run by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Its central purpose is to support the development of strong, sustainable Indian and Alaska Native communities by funding projects that help create decent housing, improve living conditions, and expand economic opportunities. A defining requirement of the program is that funded activities must primarily benefit people with low and moderate incomes, consistent with the ICDBG regulations found at 24 CFR part 1003, including the objective and eligibility standards described at 24 CFR 1003.2 and the low- and moderate-income benefit requirement referenced at 24 CFR 1003.208.
This opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number FR 6600 N 23; CFDA 14.862; activity category Housing) is aimed at eligible Native American tribal entities, specifically federally recognized tribal governments and certain Native American tribal organizations (other than federally recognized tribal governments). The funding instrument is a grant, and HUD anticipated making around 80 awards under this announcement, with an award ceiling of up to $5,000,000 per grant. The notice was created on July 29, 2022, and the original closing date listed is October 24, 2022, with an application deadline of 11:59:59 PM Eastern Standard Time on the closing date.
The NOFO primarily addresses the program's "Single Purpose Grants," which are competitive awards intended to fund a specific, clearly defined community development project. These projects must be structured so that the principal beneficiaries are low- and moderate-income community members, and applicants compete against other eligible applicants for funding. While the detailed eligible activities and implementation rules are governed by 24 CFR part 1003, the overall thrust is to enable tribes and eligible tribal organizations to carry out targeted initiatives that directly improve housing conditions, local infrastructure and community environments, and tribal economic development opportunities, as long as the low- and moderate-income benefit test is met.
In addition to the competitive Single Purpose Grants, the ICDBG program also includes an "Imminent Threat" funding option designed for urgent situations that pose an immediate and serious risk to public health or safety for tribal residents. Unlike the competitive portion of the program, Imminent Threat requests are not tied to the NOFO deadline and are handled separately on a first-come, first-served basis until the specific set-aside amount for that purpose is fully used. Requests for Imminent Threat funds must be submitted to the appropriate HUD Office of Native American Programs (ONAP) Area Office for the applicant's region and must follow ONAP Program Guidance 2018-04 titled "Imminent Threat Grants," along with the requirements in 24 CFR part 1003, subpart E. This structure gives tribes a pathway to seek rapid assistance when a pressing hazard or emergency condition needs immediate intervention rather than waiting for the next competitive grant cycle.
Overall, the opportunity is designed to channel federal resources into high-impact tribal community development efforts, with a clear priority on measurable benefit to low- and moderate-income residents and with two distinct pathways: a standard competitive grant process for planned single-purpose projects, and an accelerated, rolling process for urgent threats to health and safety administered through HUD's regional ONAP offices.Apply for FR 6600 N 23
