Opportunity Information: Apply for FR 6600 N 29A
The grant opportunity titled "HUDRD CDBG Disaster Recovery Outcomes of Renter Households" (Funding Opportunity Number FR 6600 N 29A) is a discretionary HUD research competition funded through the Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR) program area. HUD is making a total of $1,400,000 available through cooperative agreements to support two separate research studies. The overall purpose is to generate practical, evidence-based findings that help the Federal government, states, and local communities improve disaster recovery efforts for renters, and to better understand how disasters affect rental housing markets, especially the supply of affordable units over time.
A central theme of the opportunity is that renter households often experience disaster recovery differently than homeowners, and those differences can be shaped by how recovery programs are designed and implemented. HUD is specifically looking for research that clarifies how CDBG-DR funded programs may produce different outcomes for renters versus homeowners, and where inequities may emerge among renters or between renters and other groups. Because CDBG-DR is administered through a mix of Federal rules and state/local implementation choices, the studies are expected to examine not only household outcomes, but also the policy and administrative mechanisms that influence those outcomes.
The first study is focused on the recovery outcomes of renter households after disasters. This includes examining what happens to renters in the months and years following an event, what factors help or hinder their recovery, and how program decisions at the Federal and local level contribute to better or worse results. HUD is explicitly interested in understanding potential inequities, meaning the research should be capable of identifying disparities in recovery experiences and linking them to concrete drivers such as program eligibility rules, assistance delivery models, landlord participation, tenant protections, rebuilding timelines, and other implementation features tied to CDBG-DR grants.
The second study targets the broader rental housing ecosystem by examining the short- and long-term impacts of disasters on the stock of housing that is affordable to low- and moderate-income households. This part of the research is meant to track how affordable rental units are lost, restored, replaced, or transformed over time in disaster-impacted areas, and to analyze how rents, vacancies, and availability shift as recovery progresses. HUD also wants an assessment of prior initiatives that attempted to prevent reductions in affordable housing stock, which implies a look back at what strategies have been tried, what outcomes they produced, and which approaches appear most effective at preserving or rebuilding affordability after disasters.
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically signals that HUD expects meaningful involvement during the period of performance, such as coordination on study design, data access, reporting milestones, and dissemination. The opportunity anticipates two awards in total, with an award ceiling of $900,000, which aligns with the plan to fund two substantial research efforts under the larger $1.4 million allocation.
Eligibility is broad and includes state, county, and city or township governments; special district governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; Federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations; nonprofits with and without 501(c)(3) status (excluding universities); for-profit organizations (other than small businesses); and small businesses. The funding activity category is listed as Disaster Prevention and Relief under CFDA 14.536, and the sponsoring agency is the US Department of Housing and Urban Development.
The opportunity was created on May 27, 2022, with an original closing date of July 11, 2022. The application deadline is stated as 11:59:59 PM Eastern time. Overall, HUD is using this competition to fill key evidence gaps about renter-focused recovery and the durability of affordable rental housing in disaster contexts, with the expectation that the findings will directly inform future CDBG-DR program design and on-the-ground recovery practices.Apply for FR 6600 N 29A
