UPDATE 4/28/22

​

 The State just approved additional $100,000 of Housing Assistance Program (HAP) funds for Dane CoC and extended the deadline for the consolidated application. Since the total request for the HAP funds were lower than the new HAP funding amount (total $150,000), we will reopen the application process to accept new and updated applications for HAP funds. The due date for the application submission is 12pm (Noon) CDT, Friday, May 6.

HAP funds can be used for various housing programs including transitional housing, Rapid Rehousing, Permanent Supportive Housing, and other permanent housing programs. Emergency shelter, street outreach. And prevention programs are NOT eligible under HAP funds.

If you have already applied for HAP funds and do not need to change the request, you do not have to do anything. If you want to amend the application (e.g. requesting higher amount), you will need to submit an updated project application.

​

See updated RFP and Application Instructions, RRH project application (if applying for RRH), and HAP project application (if applying for housing projects other than RRH) below.

Please contact Sarah Lim (slim@cityofmadison.com) by 5/3 (Tue) if you intend to apply, so that ICA can run HMIS performance reports for performance scores, if applicable.
