Rank and Review Draft for Public Review
In 2021, the CoC membership discussed a tentative content list for the updated 2021 NOFO Rank and Review Criteria. The following Rank and Review Criteria reflects a combination of content that cites the 2019 MCoC Rank and Review Criteria, the 2021 NOFO Rank and Review Criteria example, examples of rank and review criteria from other local CoCs, and Continuum input. This criteria will review renewal, first time renewal, and new projects. HMIS projects will be reviewed in the typical project type (first time renewal, new project etc,), however they will receive full points for any criteria where their answer is deemed "not applicable." One of the biggest changes to this year's rank and review criteria is the inclusion of racial equity and racial disparity information and reporting, in compliance with the NOFO's stated priority of addressing racial inequality in our housing services.
Any comments and questions are to be submitted to Heather Hogue at heatherh@unitedwayuc.org. The final rank and review criteria and updated policies and procedures will be subject to vote at the next Continuum meeting on September 13th, 2021.
