Service Coordinator Program
The Service Coordinator Program provides funding for the employment of Service Coordinators in insured and assisted apartment housing that is designed for the elderly and persons with disabilities. A service coordinator is a social service staff person hired or contracted by the development's owner or management company. The Service Coordinator is responsible for assuring that elderly residents, especially those who are frail or at risk, and those non-elderly residents with disabilities are linked to the specific supportive services they need to continue living independently in that housing development.

Read a more detailed description of the Service Coordinator program in the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA). The CFDA number for the Service Coordinator program is 14.191.

HUD will publish a Service Coordinator grant Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) in the fall of 2011. This Notice will announce the availability of funds to make new grants to owners of privately-owned HUD assisted multifamily housing developments for the elderly and people with disabilities.

Check the Department's  Grants page periodically for published NOFAs and information on the Service Coordinator NOFA.

HUD last issued a NOFA and awarded new grants in 2011. The 2011 NOFA for Service Coordinators has been archived for your perusal. In 2011 the Department awarded 233 grants totaling $45.6 million. These grants serve 267 housing sites and more than 29,000 elderly and non-elderly disabled individuals and families.
