CDBG-CV Public Services Round Two

The State of New Hampshire received approximately $14.3 million from the US Department of Housing

and Urban Development (HUD) through the CARES ACT to be deployed under the CDBG program in

response to the Coronavirus Pandemic (COVID-19). These funds, known as CDBG-CV, were to be used

specifically for the prevention of, preparation for, and response to COVID-19.

CDFA administers programs that effectively deploy funds to create the most community-driven impacts

and public benefits and which comply with state and federal regulations and adapt to the evolving needs

of New Hampshire communities.

CDFA developed priorities for deployment of these funds based on state, municipal, nonprofit partner and

stakeholder feedback. Several CDBG-CV funding opportunities have been created since the funding was

received to support needs across the state, including,

• In August 2020, CDFA awarded $848,730 of CDBG-CV funds to support COVID-19 related

technical assistance and direct grants to Microenterprise businesses.

• In November 2020, nearly $7.5M in CDBG-CV funds were awarded through CDBG-CV Public

Service Round 1 to support critical high-priority services that included childcare, foodbanks, legal

services, as well as health, mental health and substance abuse services, among others.

• Approximately $3M in CDBG-CV funds have been awarded to support eligible housing and public

facilities projects that had a tie-in to the COVID-19 pandemic.

• $2M in funding was also awarded specifically to Permanent Supportive Housing projects through a

dedicated funding opportunity.

“Public Services” is an eligible CDBG activity that is not typically funded in the state CDBG program.

The 2020 CDBG-CV Public Service round was the first funding opportunity available to support this

type of activity in the state CDBG program.

CDFA has seen the continued impact that the COVID-19 pandemic has had on housing instability and

homelessness. The impacts are seen through CDFA’sday-to-day work across its programs, through

involvement in the Council on Housing Stability and through conversations with stakeholders including the

NH Department of Health and Human Services, municipalities, and nonprofit homeless service providers.

Based on this need, CDFA created a CDBG-CV Public Service funding opportunity that aims to mitigate

the ongoing effects of COVID-19 by supporting municipalities and nonprofit organizations in delivering

direct services to unhoused individuals.

The City of Concord is requesting $130,000 in CDBG-CV Public Service funds to support expanded

operations at the Emergency Winter Shelter and Homeless Resource Center operated by the

Concord Coalition to End Homelessness (CCEH). The funding will support at least 650 individuals

experiencing homelessness; all are considered low-to moderate income as part of a HUD Presumed

Group.

Founded in 2008, CCEH is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit and the leading homeless response provider for the

greater Concord region. It operates two core low-barrier programs-the Emergency Winter Shelter

(EWS) and the Homeless Resource Center (HRC)-both of which serve adults experiencing

homelessness from the City of Concord and surrounding communities within Merrimack County. The

EWS and HRC have operated continuously for 17 years and have a strong record of providing

services to people experiencing homelessness in Concord and surrounding communities. CCEH has

worked with the City of Concord since 2008 and the City has funded the operations, in part, of CCEH

for over a decade.

The CDBG-CV funds will support additional costs incurred due to the ongoing impact of COVID-19 on

homelessness, housing instability, and demand for basic-needs services. In response to escalating

post-pandemic need, CCEH is expanding its EWS evening hours and adding weekend warming

hours at the HRC to ensure individuals experiencing homelessness have access to safe, warm space

every day of the week during the winter season. CCEH expanded weekday hours and piloted Sunday

warming center hours in early 2025. That pilot was successful, therefore the CCEH will add Saturday

and Sunday hours (1-4pm) during the winter shelter 2025-2026 season.

The City of Manchester is requesting $500,000 in CDBG-CV Public Service funds to support shelter

operations at four different locations within the city. Half of the funding will be subgranted to Families in

Transition, to support operations at two of their shelters. The other half of the funding will be used to

support two shelters operated by the City of Manchester. The funding will support at least 1,008

individuals experiencing homelessness, all considered low-to moderate income as part of a HUD

Presumed Group.

The City of Manchester continues to experience an increase in housing insecurity and homelessness as a

result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Many who find themselves homeless in other communities across the

state relocate to Manchester to utilize the resources that the city and area nonprofits provide, which many

other communities do not. In 2019, the City of Manchester established a Homelessness Task Force to

address the challenges of homelessness. A Homeless Coordinator position was created in 2021. COVID-

19 led to heightened homelessness as many jobs were lost and housing costs soared. The Director of

Homelessness Initiatives works with the Manchester Continuum of Care to streamline collaboration and

resources between 77 organizations which provide homelessness services and the city departments who

work closely with the homeless population.

The City of Manchester operates the 39 Beech Street shelter, which was established using ARPA funds in

response to the swelling number of homeless people after COVID-19. This is the only shelter in the city that

is equipped to house severely medically challenged individuals. It also serves as a winter warming station

for the entire homeless population. The City is working to wind down operations at this location at the end

of March 2026 due to the unsustainable long-term cost of operation. The City will be transitioning services

at a more cost-effective building located at 200 Elm Street. This new location will also serve as a winter

warming station to the homeless population at-large and as a 20-bed shelter. CDBG funds will be used to

support operations at 39 Beech Street shelter until its closure, at which point funds will then support start-up

operations at the new location.

Families in Transition (FIT) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit whose mission is to prevent and end the cycle of

homelessness. The City of Manchester has worked closely with FIT to address the needs of the homeless

population for the past 25 years. FIT is the largest provider of shelters in Manchester, providing 138 beds to

men, women, and veterans experiencing homelessness, and an additional 11 bedrooms for families. They

also maintain 280 affordable apartment units that provide permanent, transitional, and recovery housing.

FIT’s family emergency shelter is the only shelter in the city that is designed to help homeless families stay

together. It consists of 11 rooms and 46 beds. It regularly operates at full capacity with an estimated waitlist

of 57 individuals. The adult emergency shelter is a low barrier, 138 bed shelter that ensures that all adults

struggling with homelessness have access to much needed resources such as substance use treatment,

food, and clothing, in addition to shelter. This shelter also operates at max capacity throughout the year,

with a regular waitlist. CDBG-CV funding will be used to support operating costs at both FIT shelters.

Strafford County requests $452,039 in CDBG-CV Public Service funds to support the Home for Now

Shelter in Rochester, NH, and the Willand Warming Center in Somersworth, NH. The funding will support

at least 112 individuals experiencing homelessness, all considered low-to moderate income as part of

a HUD Presumed Group.

Since COVID-19, there has been a marked increase in homelessness in Strafford County, and this

trend appears to be accelerating. Roughly 70% - 80% of the calls that come into the CAPSC

Homeless Outreach Center are from newly unsheltered families who need reliable and safe shelter.

During the 2025 summer months, shelters statewide were at or above capacity with long waiting lists.

Strafford County operates the seasonal Willard Warming Center on behalf of the Tri-Cities (Dover,

Rochester, and Somersworth) through a third-party vendor. It is located at 30 Willand Drive in

CDAC 1/8/26 Page 7

Somersworth (in a building owned by the City of Dover) and offers 80 beds for winter emergency

sheltering. Operational costs have significantly increased over the years. CDBG funds will be used to

support salaries and benefits to operational costs.

Community Action Partnership of Strafford County (CAPSC) is a private nonprofit founded in 1965

with a mission to reduce barriers to help clients improve their economic stability and well-being.

CAPSC has been managing a homeless prevention and rapid re-housing program for twenty years.

They operate Home for Now, a year-round homeless shelter, located at 202 Washington Street,

Rochester, NH. The shelter has 10 rooms, totaling 32 beds, for individuals and families. CDBG-CV

funds will be used for operating support to cover essential expenses such as utilities, case

management, and direct client support that are not currently funded by other CAPSC programs.

ATT ACHMENT II

DUPLICATION OF BENEFITS

In consideration of Subrecipient's receipt of CDBG-CV funds administered by Grantee, Subrecipient shall assign

to Grantee all of Subrecipient's future rights to reimbursement and all payments received from any grant,

subsidized loan, or insurance policies of any type or coverage or under any reimbursement or relief program

related to or administered through the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) that was

the basis of the calculation of CDBG-CV Grant to the extent of Grant paid or to be paid to Subrecipient under the

CDBG-CV Program and that are determined in the sole discretion of CDFA to be a duplication of benefits ("DOB")

as provided in the Grant Agreement.

The payments referred to in the preceding paragraph, whether they are from insurance, the Coronavirus Relief

Fund or any other source, and whether or not such amounts are a DOB, shall be referred to herein as

"Assistance," and any Assistance that are a DOB shall be referred to herein as "DOB Assistance." Upon

receiving any Assistance not listed on the Duplication of Benefits Worksheet, Subrecipient agrees to immediately

notify the Grantee who will notify CDFA of such additional amounts, and CDFA will determine in its sole discretion

if such additional amounts constitute a DOB. If some or all of the Assistance are determined to be a DOB, the

portion that is a DOB shall be paid to the Grantee, to be returned to CDFA as provided in the Grant Agreement.

If requested by the Grantee, Subrecipient agrees to execute such further and additional documents and

instruments as may be requested to further and better assign to the Grantee, to the extent of the Grant paid to

Subrecipient under the Program, the Policies, any amounts received under the CARES Act that are DOB

Assistance and/or any rights thereunder, and to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be

done, all things requested by the Grantee to consummate and make effective the purposes of the Grant

Agreement.

Subrecipient explicitly allows the Grantee to request of private insurance; the Federal Emergency Management

Agency (FEMA) Disaster Relief Fund; and/or grants; local and state Funds; other federal programs; and private

and nonprofit organizations from which Subrecipient has applied for or is receiving Assistance, any non-public or

confidential information determined to be reasonably necessary by the Grantee to monitor/enforce its interest in

the rights assigned to it under the Grant Agreement and give Subrecipient's consent to such company to release

said information to the Grantee.

If Subrecipient hereafter receives any DOB Assistance, Subrecipient agrees to promptly pay such amounts to the

Grantee, if Subrecipient received assistance under the Program in an amount greater than the amount

Subrecipient would have received if such DOB Assistance had been considered in the calculation of

Subrecipient's award.

In the event that the Subrecipient receives or is scheduled to receive any Assistance not listed on its Duplication

of Benefits Worksheet ("Subsequent Assistance"), Subrecipient shall pay such Subsequent Assistance directly to

the Grantee, and CDFA will determine the amount, if any, of such Subsequent Assistance that are DOB

Assistance ("Subsequent DOB Assistance"). Subsequent Assistance in excess of Subsequent DOB Assistance

shall be returned to the Subrecipient. Subsequent DOB Assistance shall be disbursed as follows:

1. If the Subrecipient has received full payment of the Grant, any Subsequent DOB Assistance shall be

retained by the Grantee and remitted to CDFA.

Manchester. FIT - CDBG-CV Public Services - Grant #26-728-CDPS-CV

Attachment II- Duplication of Benefits

2. If the Subrecipient has received no payment of the Grant, any Subsequent DOB Assistance shall be used

by the Grantee to reduce payments of the Grant to the Subrecipient, and all Subsequent DOB Assistance

shall be returned to the Subrecipient.

3. If the Subrecipient has received a portion of the Grant, any Subsequent DOB Assistance shall be used,

retained and/or disbursed in the following order: (A) Subsequent DOB Assistance shall first be used to

reduce the remaining payments of the Grant, and Subsequent DOB Assistance in such amount shall be

returned to the Subrecipient; and (B) any remaining Subsequent DOB Assistance shall be retained by the

Grantee and remitted to CDFA.

4. If the Grantee makes the determination that the Subrecipient does not qualify to participate in the Program

or the Subrecipient determines not to participate in the Program, the Subsequent DOB Assistance shall be

returned to the Subrecipient, and this Agreement shall terminate.

Once the Grantee has recovered an amount equal to the Grant paid to Subrecipient, the Grantee will reassign to

Subrecipient any rights assigned to the Grantee pursuant to the Grant Agreement.

Subrecipient represents that all statements and representations made by Subrecipient regarding Assistance

received by Subrecipient shall be true and correct as of the date of Grant Closing and through the required

reporting period.
