In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, HUD’s Office of Special Needs Assistance Programs (SNAPS) has determined that an expedited process is necessary for amending CoC Program recipient grant agreements.

Recipients who need grant agreement amendments to provide housing, services, or other necessities to support eligible clients can submit an amendment request to HUD. Recipients must remember to maintain documentation in their project files indicating the need for the requested change.

To facilitate this process HUD has created a guidance page on the HUD Exchange explaining:

• What can be amended
• Information about change and funding requests
• How to request an expedited grant agreement amendment
