FY 2022 Veterans Housing Rehabilitation and Modification Pilot Program (VHRMP)
The purpose of the Veterans Housing Rehabilitation and Modification Pilot Program (VHRMP) is to explore the potential benefits of awarding grants to nonprofit organizations to rehabilitate Page 4 of 50 and modify the primary residence of veterans who are low-income and have disabilities. The funds made available under this program will be awarded competitively.
A number of America’s veterans who are low-income and have disabilities are in need of adaptive housing to help them regain or maintain their independence, are unable to fund significant home repairs, or are burdened by utility costs. In partnership with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, HUD designed the VHRMP to test a new approach to address these challenges in accordance with section 1079 of the Carl Levin and Howard P. “Buck” McKeon National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2015 (Public Law 113-291, §1079, enacted December 19, 2014, as amended by Public Law 114-92, §1081(b)(4), November 25, 2015). The VHRMP provides competitive grants of up to $1 million each to nonprofit organizations that provide nationwide or statewide programs that primarily serve veterans and/or low-income individuals. The grants may be used to modify or rehabilitate eligible veterans’ primary residences or to provide grantees’ affiliates with technical, administrative, and training support in connection with those services. The performance goals and required output and outcome measures for these grants are discussed in section VI.C.6 of this NOFO.
In the FY 2023 competition of VHRMP grants, HUD will award up to $6,445,980 with $1 million in funding provided under the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023 (Public Law 117-328, approved December 29, 2022) as well as $4 million in funding provided under the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022 (Public Law 117-103, approved March 15, 2022), and $1,445,980 remaining VHRMP funding provided under the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2018 (Public Law 115-141, approved March 23, 2018)
