To be precise, grants under the Continuum of Care for FY19 will be renewed noncompetitively for FY20, hopefully not too long from now. There is funding for new programs in FY20, a competition will be announced for that. Should be hearing more details from HUD shortly

Good to see our evaluation noted - performance analysis is essential to identifying the problems that need to be solved @Megan_KS_
Replying to @bjpoppe
@annymoliva @m_j_doherty offer their analysis - I hope the #BidenHarrisTransition and @mlfudge take these findings to heart. #HousingFirst
