SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Fiscal Year 2010 SNAPS Technical
Assistance program was designed to provide technical assistance for
homeless programs in the Office of Special Needs Assistance Programs
through the selection of technical assistance (TA) providers for this
program.
The competition was announced in the SNAPS-TA NOFA published
October 10, 2010 (FR-5415-N-31) and closed on November 22, 2010. The
NOFA allowed for up to $16.3 million for technical assistance.
Approximately $9.8 million was available under HUD McKinney-Vento
Technical Assistance for homeless assistance programs, Homeless
Management Information System (HMIS) data collection, reporting and
research, including the Annual Homeless Assessment Report (AHAR) TA
activities and approximately $1.2 million under the American Recovery
and Reinvestment Act for Homelessness Prevention and Rapid Re-Housing
Program (HPRP) TA activities. Collectively they are referred to as the
SNAPS Technical Assistance Program (SNAPS-TA). Additional funds
including approximately $6.5 million for McKinney-Vento homeless
assistance TA became available as a result of HUD's recapture of unused

totaling $17,482,000 were awarded to seven distinct technical
