HUD programs
HUD funds nonprofits, public housing agencies and local governments through many programs, including Continuum of Care, Emergency Solutions Grants, HOME, Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS, Community Development Block Grant funds passed through cities and counties, and public housing and voucher programs. Each program has its own rules on top of the Uniform Guidance.
HUD announces program changes through notices. The Office of Community Planning and Development issues them for programs such as Continuum of Care, ESG, HOME and CDBG, and the Office of Public and Indian Housing issues them for housing authorities. Both are listed on HUDCLIPS. Match is a common finance question: Continuum of Care grants require a 25 percent match on everything except leasing (24 CFR 578.73), and ESG recipients must match their grant dollar for dollar (24 CFR 576.201).
