SNAPS-Shots

Description

Over the past year, HUD’s Office of Special Needs Assistance Programs (SNAPS) has been reviewing comments on the Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) and Continuum of Care (CoC) Interim Rules, working on in-depth guidance, and fielding questions received through the Ask A Question portal. Through this process, HUD has identified topics that seem to be particularly challenging to recipients and subrecipients implementing these programs.

While HUD continues to work to release detailed guidance, we understand that there is an ongoing need for quick, “bite-size” information to help understand the requirements. HUD’s Office of Special Needs Assistance Programs (SNAPS) is pleased to introduce SNAPS-Shots, an effort designed to highlight and explain key concepts in the ESG and CoC Interim Rules. We know that there are multiple demands on your time, and as a result, we strive to find new and efficient ways to share information and increase knowledge our stakeholders.
