The FY 2025 CoC NOFO allows renewal projects to be reallocated directly to a new project through an application mechanism known as a Transition Grant. A Transition Grant is a new project application created through reallocation that enables an eligible CoC renewal project, including Special NOFO or DV Renewal projects, to move from one program component to another eligible component over a one-year period. The renewal project being transitioned must be fully eliminated through reallocation. Transition Grant applications awarded FY 2025 funds must fully convert to the new component by the end of the one-year grant term, and may only apply for renewal in the next CoC Program Competition under the component to which the project transitioned. Additional information about Transition Grants is provided in Section IV.D.1.I of the FY 2025 CoC NOFO.
