About this opportunity
AI summaryThe New Mexico Department of Workforce Solutions Office of Housing seeks information from non-governmental entities to develop action-oriented plans for unsheltered housing stability. Projects must focus on a specific geographic area or population rather than a statewide scope, strengthen organizational capacity, and improve provider readiness for housing-focused, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive services. Work must involve Continuum of Care partners, Coordinated Entry Systems, outreach teams, community-based organizations, and input from individuals with lived experience. Eligibility is restricted to onshore United States organizations performing work offsite. Respondents must download, complete, and submit the Application and the original Excel Budget Worksheet exclusively through the Bonfire Portal on a rolling deadline ending March 31, 2027. The agency may use submitted responses to evaluate potential projects for funding, award scopes, and performance requirements.
