Our 2025 investment means 1,424 homes will soon be built or rehabbed. More Minnesotans will become homeowners, and more families will be able to afford the communities where they choose to put down roots. 🌲🏘️💙💚

Last week, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) issued the FY2025 Continuum of Care Program Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO). This NOFO guides the allocation of nearly $4 billion in federal funding that local communities rely on to get our neighbors out of homelessness and into homes tailored to their needs.

Instead of focusing on proven solutions and local input, the new NOFO prioritizes failed, harmful approaches that will not reduce homelessness.

Cuts to permanent housing mean at least 4,900 Minnesotans who already have a home risk being pushed out with no options.

Hundreds of millions of dollars the State has invested in homes will be destabilized as well, hurting more neighbors, nonprofits, and communities.

The National Alliance to End Homelessness has created summaries to understand the language and funding implications in the NOFO:

A home – with the right supports – ends homelessness. This NOFO will disrupt that stability for thousands of our neighbors and undermine decades of bipartisan success.

Congress and HUD still have the ability to stop this disastrous change – and they should. Tell Congress the impact this would have on homes in your community.

Housing = health, stability, education, opportunity
