ACTION: Notice of funding awards.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with section 102(a)(4)(C) of the Department of 
Housing and Urban Development Reform Act of 1989, this announcement 
notifies the public of past funding decisions made by the Department in 
a competition for funding under the 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005 Notices 
of Funding Availability (NOFAs) for the Housing Opportunities for 
Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) program. This announcement contains the names 
of the awardees and the amounts of the awards made available by HUD in 
2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005. Federal Register notices on these actions 
were not published at the time; however, the public was advised of 
these grant selections since they were posted on HUD's Web site. The 
postings contained listings of the selected applicants including 
descriptions of the projects.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The HOPWA program competition was designed 
to award grants for the renewal of continuing permanent supportive 
housing activities and for new projects, referred to as Special 
Projects of National Significance, that provide housing assistance and 
supportive services to persons and their families living with HIV/AIDS. 
Funds were made available for a three-year operating period starting 
the year following the respective competition.
    New project grants were made under two categories of assistance: 
(1) Special Projects of National Significance which, due to their 
innovative nature or their potential for replication, are likely to 
serve as effective models in addressing the needs of low-income persons 
living with HIV/AIDS and their families; and (2) projects which are 
part of Long-Term Comprehensive Strategies (Long-Term) for providing 
housing and related services for low-income persons living with HIV/
AIDS and their families in areas that do not receive HOPWA formula 
allocations.
    For the Fiscal Year 2002 competition, a total of $28,755,493 was 
provided to 28 grant recipients nationwide. For the Fiscal Year 2003 
competition, a total of $25,935,009 was provided to 25 grant recipients 
nationwide. For the Fiscal Year 2004 competition, a total of 
$20,175,475 was provided to 22 grant recipients nationwide. For the 
Fiscal Year 2005 competition, a total of $37,501,089 was provided to 35 
grant recipients nationwide. Project information for all years was made 
available on the Department's Web site. Notices on these grant 
selections were inadvertently not published at the time in the Federal 
Register.
    The HOPWA assistance made available in this announcement was 
authorized by the AIDS Housing Opportunity Act (42 U.S.C. 12901), as 
amended by the Housing and Community Development Act of 1992 (Pub. L. 
102-550, approved October 28, 1992) and was appropriated by the HUD 
Appropriations Act for 2001. The grants competitions were included 
within the SuperNOFA (Notice of Funding Availability) announcements for 
HUD's Discretionary Programs published in the
