MARCH 2024–Recipient Slow Spending Status Report Notification
The Office of Special Needs Assistance Programs (SNAPS) started a new initiative working with Community Planning and Development (CPD) field offices to review and address Continuum of Care (CoC) Program grants that are identified as slow spending on a quarterly basis. Beginning in mid-February 2024, the SNAPS Office will provide CPD field offices with a Slow Spending Status Report that highlights CoC Program grants that are spending slowly that could result in those grants returning funds at the end of the period of performance. We also provided guidance to the CPD field offices on different ways they can work with identified slow spenders so we can ensure the majority, if not all, funds are properly spent.

The Community Planning and Development (CPD) Program Monitoring page provides information and resources to CPD grantees to assist in conducting self-monitoring, preparing for a HUD monitoring review, or monitoring subrecipients and other partners.
