II. ESG-CV2 Program Parameters
1) Eligible Applicants
a) Applicants must have a non-profit 501(c)(3) designation or be a unit of local government
to be eligible. For non-profit organizations requesting funds for Emergency Shelter
activities, the application must include certification of approval from the unit of local
government for every geographic areas in which those activities are to be carried out.
This might require multiple certifications of approval if projects operate in multiple
jurisdictions.
b) Additionally, the CARES Act states that all projects funded with ESG-CV must not
require those served to receive treatment or perform any other prerequisite activities
as a condition for receiving shelter, housing, or other services. This applies to all
applicants, regardless of component being requested. This will be monitored
throughout the grant agreement period by DOH staff.
2) Connection to the COVID-19 Pandemic
a) All ESG-CV funds must be used to prevent, prepare for, and respond to the COVID-19
pandemic. This will be documented through the quarterly reports submitted throughout
the grant agreement. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD),
which funds the ESG program, defines these activities as below:
i. Prevent coronavirus means an activity designed to prevent the initial or further
spread of the virus to people experiencing homelessness, people at risk of
homelessness, subrecipient staff, or other shelter or housing residents. This includes
providing Personal Protective Equipment to staff and program participants, paying
for non-congregate shelter options such as hotels and motels, paying for
handwashing stations and portable toilets for use by people living in unsheltered
situations, and providing rapid re-housing or homelessness prevention assistance to
individuals and families who are homeless or at risk of homelessness (as applicable)
to reduce their risk of contracting or further spreading the virus.
ii. Prepare for coronavirus means an activity carried out by a subrecipient prior to or
during a coronavirus outbreak in their jurisdiction to plan to keep people healthy
and reduce the risk of exposure to coronavirus and avoid or slow the spread of
disease. This includes updating written standards to prioritize people at severe risk
of contracting coronavirus for shelter and housing consistent with fair housing and
nondiscrimination requirements, adapting coordinated entry policies and procedures
to account for social distancing measures or increased demand, developing a
strategy and recruiting landlords to provide housing to people experiencing
homelessness or at risk of homelessness, training homeless providers on infectious
disease prevention and mitigation, and implementing a non-congregate shelter
strategy to reduce the spread of coronavirus.
iii. Respond to coronavirus means an activity carried out once coronavirus has spread
to people experiencing homelessness, provider staff, or once individuals and families
lose or are at risk of losing their housing as a result of the economic downturn caused
DocuSign Envelope ID: 175CCE4A-7CC3-449E-9D6F-E4ACC813D946

by coronavirus. This includes transporting individuals and families experiencing
homelessness to medical appointments, paying for shelter to isolate individuals who
have contracted coronavirus from other program participants and people
experiencing homelessness, providing rental assistance to those who are at risk of
losing their housing, have already become homeless, or continue to experience
homelessness due to the economic downturn caused by coronavirus, and providing
hazard pay to subrecipient staff who put their own health at risk to continue to
provide necessary services to individuals and families experiencing and risk of
homelessness.
3) Eligible Activities
a) Emergency Shelter: ESG-CV funds may be used for the costs of providing essential
services to homeless families and individuals in emergency shelters, renovating buildings
to be used as emergency shelters for homeless families and individuals, and operating
emergency shelters.
i. Emergency Shelter activities include: Essential services (includes case management,
child care, education services, employment assistance, outpatient health services,
legal services, life skills training, etc.), shelter renovations, and shelter operations
(including the costs of maintenance, rent, security, fuel, equipment, insurance,
utilities, food, furnishings, and supplies necessary to the operation of the emergency
shelter). Hotel/motel costs may also be funded where no appropriate Emergency
Shelter is available.
ii. Volunteer Incentives. ESG-CV funds can be used for the cost of providing reasonable
incentives to volunteers (e.g., cash or gift cards) who have been and are currently
helping to provide necessary street outreach, emergency shelter, essential services,
and housing relocation and stabilization services during the coronavirus outbreak.
iii. Hazard Pay. ESG-CV funds may be used to pay hazard pay for staff working directly
to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus among persons who are homeless
or at risk of homelessness. Examples of subrecipient staff working directly in support
of coronavirus response include emergency shelter intake staff, street outreach
teams, emergency shelter maintenance staff, emergency shelter security staff, staff
providing essential services (e.g., outpatient health or mental health, housing
navigators), and staff in proximity to persons with coronavirus or working in locations
with a high likelihood of contracting coronavirus.
iv. Training. ESG-CV funds may be used for training on infectious disease prevention
and mitigation for staff working directly to prevent, prepare for, and respond to
coronavirus among persons who are homeless or at risk of homelessness and the use
of funding shall not be considered administrative costs for purposes of the
administrative cap. In addition, the limitations on eligible activities provided in
section 415(a) of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act and 24 CFR part 576,
subpart B are waived and alternative requirements are established to the extent
necessary to authorize ESG-CV funds to be used for training on infectious disease
prevention and mitigation for homeless assistance providers, including those who do
not receive funding through the CARES Act, to help them best prevent, prepare for,
and respond to coronavirus among persons who are homeless or at risk of
homelessness.
b) Temporary Emergency Shelter: ESG-CV funds may be used for the costs of providing
temporary emergency shelter, which means any structure or portion of a structure,
DocuSign Envelope ID: 175CCE4A-7CC3-449E-9D6F-E4ACC813D946
5
which is used for a limited period of time because of a crisis, such as a natural disaster
or public health emergency, to provide shelter for individuals and families displaced
from their normal place of residence or sheltered or unsheltered locations.
i. Examples of temporary emergency shelters include: an overnight, daytime, or 24-
hour shelter in which program participants are only provided a safe place to sleep,
rest, bathe, and eat; a shelter where one or more services are made available on-
site, whether by shelter staff or contractors or through a memorandum of
understanding with another subrecipient or service provider; and a shelter designed
to facilitate the movement of homeless individuals and families into permanent
housing within a fixed period of time (e.g., within 12 months) and employs or
contracts with one or more case managers or service providers to provide services
as specified under sections III.E.3.a.(i)(e) and III.E.3.a.(ii)(e) through (h).
ii. This component can be used to fill gaps in local winter shelter capacity due to a
reduction in shelter capacity because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Temporary shelter
funds should be used for shelters that are not currently being planned for long-term
shelter use.
iii. This component should also include a housing plan to ensure that those sheltered in
temporary shelters have access to housing after the shelter closes. Temporary
shelter can pay for housing navigation and housing counseling activities in order to
support this goal.
iv. Volunteer Incentives. ESG-CV funds can be used for the cost of providing reasonable
incentives to volunteers (e.g., cash or gift cards) who have been and are currently
helping to provide necessary street outreach, emergency shelter, essential services,
and housing relocation and stabilization services during the coronavirus outbreak.
v. Hazard Pay. ESG-CV funds may be used to pay hazard pay for staff working directly
to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus among persons who are homeless
or at risk of homelessness. Examples of subrecipient staff working directly in support
of coronavirus response include emergency shelter intake staff, street outreach
teams, emergency shelter maintenance staff, emergency shelter security staff, staff
providing essential services (e.g., outpatient health or mental health, housing
navigators), and staff in proximity to persons with coronavirus or working in locations
with a high likelihood of contracting coronavirus.
vi. Training. ESG-CV funds may be used for training on infectious disease prevention
and mitigation for staff working directly to prevent, prepare for, and respond to
coronavirus among persons who are homeless or at risk of homelessness and the use
of funding shall not be considered administrative costs for purposes of the
administrative cap. In addition, the limitations on eligible activities provided in
section 415(a) of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act and 24 CFR part 576,
subpart B are waived and alternative requirements are established to the extent
necessary to authorize ESG-CV funds to be used for training on infectious disease
prevention and mitigation for homeless assistance providers, including those who do
not receive funding through the CARES Act, to help them best prevent, prepare for,
and respond to coronavirus among persons who are homeless or at risk of
homelessness.
c) Street Outreach: ESG-CV funds may be used to reach out to people experiencing
unsheltered homelessness; connect them with emergency shelter, housing, or critical
services; and provide urgent, non-facility based care to people who are unsheltered and
who are unwilling or unable to access emergency shelter, housing, or an appropriate
DocuSign Envelope ID: 175CCE4A-7CC3-449E-9D6F-E4ACC813D946
6
health facility. For this NOFA, “people experiencing unsheltered homelessness” means
individuals and families who qualify as homeless per CFR 576.2.
i. Street Outreach activities include: Engagement, case management, emergency
health services, emergency mental health services, transportation, etc. For specific
requirements and eligible costs, see 24 CFR 576.101.
ii. ESG-CV funds can be used to pay for handwashing stations and portable toilets for
use by people living in unsheltered situations.
iii. Although ESG-CV funds cannot pay for infrastructure associated with sanctioned
outdoor encampments, it can be for the cost of outreach staff working in the
encampments to provide services and connections to housing while living in
encampments, as long as those served are not required to receive treatment or
perform any other prerequisite activities as a condition for receiving shelter.
iv. Volunteer Incentives. ESG-CV funds can be used for the cost of providing reasonable
incentives to volunteers (e.g., cash or gift cards) who have been and are currently
helping to provide necessary street outreach, emergency shelter, essential services,
and housing relocation and stabilization services during the coronavirus outbreak.
v. Hazard Pay. ESG-CV funds may be used to pay hazard pay for staff working directly
to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus among persons who are homeless
or at risk of homelessness. Examples of subrecipient staff working directly in support
of coronavirus response include emergency shelter intake staff, street outreach
teams, emergency shelter maintenance staff, emergency shelter security staff, staff
providing essential services (e.g., outpatient health or mental health, housing
navigators), and staff in proximity to persons with coronavirus or working in locations
with a high likelihood of contracting coronavirus.
vi. Training. ESG-CV funds may be used for training on infectious disease prevention
and mitigation for staff working directly to prevent, prepare for, and respond to
coronavirus among persons who are homeless or at risk of homelessness and the use
of funding shall not be considered administrative costs for purposes of the
administrative cap. In addition, the limitations on eligible activities provided in
section 415(a) of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act and 24 CFR part 576,
subpart B are waived and alternative requirements are established to the extent
necessary to authorize ESG-CV funds to be used for training on infectious disease
prevention and mitigation for homeless assistance providers, including those who do
not receive funding through the CARES Act, to help them best prevent, prepare for,
and respond to coronavirus among persons who are homeless or at risk of
homelessness.
d) Rapid Rehousing: ESG-CV funds may be used for the costs of providing housing
relocation and stabilization services and short and/or medium-term rental assistance as
necessary to help individuals or families living in an emergency shelter or other place
described as homeless in CFR 576.2 to move as quickly as possible into permanent
housing and achieve stability in that housing.
Applicants may also apply for Rapid Rehousing. Traditionally, only applicants who are
designated as a CoC have been able to apply for this activity. Due to the rapid increase
of funds and administrative burden of monitoring these funds, ESG-CV funds can be
available to applicants who are not designated as a CoC. This variation might not
continue after the emergency nature of the pandemic ends.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 175CCE4A-7CC3-449E-9D6F-E4ACC813D946

i. Rapid Rehousing activities include: Services and assistance generally consist of short-
term and medium-term rental assistance, rental arrears, rental application fees,
security deposits, advance payment of last month's rent, utility deposits and
payments, moving costs, housing search and placement, housing stability case
management, mediation, legal services, and credit repair. For specific requirements
and eligible costs, see 24 CFR 576.104, 576.105, and 576.106.
● Any Rapid Rehousing program funded through this NOFA must adhere to the
limitation stated in the ESG-CV Program Notice that changes the timeline of
medium-term rental assistance and states that: “medium-term is established as
for more than 3 months but not more than twelve (12) months.”
ii. Landlord incentives. ESG-CV funds to be used to add the eligible cost of paying for
landlord incentives as reasonable and necessary to obtain housing for individuals and
families experiencing homelessness and at risk of homelessness. However, a
recipient may not use ESG-CV funds to pay the landlord incentives set forth below
in an amount that exceeds three times the rent charged for the unit. Waiving the
limitation on eligible costs under housing relocation and stabilization services to pay
for the costs of landlord incentives will increase the number of housing units
available to people experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness, especially
in tight rental markets and obtaining and maintaining housing is critical to preventing
the spread of coronavirus and helping mitigate the economic impact of the crisis.
The limitation to three times the rent charged for each unit ensures enough ESG-CV
funds remain available to provide other eligible activities necessary to prevent the
spread of coronavirus. Eligible landlord incentive costs include:
● Signing bonuses equal to up to two (2) months of rent;
● Security deposits equal to up to three (3) months of rent;
● Paying the cost to repair damages incurred by the program participant not
covered by the security deposit or that are incurred while the program
participant is still residing in the unit; and,
● Paying the costs of extra cleaning or maintenance of a program participant’s unit
or appliances.
ii. Volunteer Incentives. ESG-CV funds can be used for the cost of providing reasonable
incentives to volunteers (e.g., cash or gift cards) who have been and are currently
helping to provide necessary street outreach, emergency shelter, essential services,
and housing relocation and stabilization services during the coronavirus outbreak.
iii. Hazard Pay. ESG-CV funds may be used to pay hazard pay for staff working directly
to prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus among persons who are homeless
or at risk of homelessness. Examples of subrecipient staff working directly in support
of coronavirus response include emergency shelter intake staff, street outreach
teams, emergency shelter maintenance staff, emergency shelter security staff, staff
providing essential services (e.g., outpatient health or mental health, housing
navigators), and staff in proximity to persons with coronavirus or working in locations
with a high likelihood of contracting coronavirus.
iv. Training. ESG-CV funds may be used for training on infectious disease prevention
and mitigation for staff working directly to prevent, prepare for, and respond to
coronavirus among persons who are homeless or at risk of homelessness and the use
of funding shall not be considered administrative costs for purposes of the
administrative cap. In addition, the limitations on eligible activities provided in
section 415(a) of the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act and 24 CFR part 576,
subpart B are waived and alternative requirements are established to the extent
necessary to authorize ESG-CV funds to be used for training on infectious disease
DocuSign Envelope ID: 175CCE4A-7CC3-449E-9D6F-E4ACC813D946

prevention and mitigation for homeless assistance providers, including those who do
not receive funding through the CARES Act, to help them best prevent, prepare for,
and respond to coronavirus among persons who are homeless or at risk of
homelessness.
e) HMIS: ESG-CV funds may be used to pay the costs of contributing data to
the HMIS designated by the Continuum of Care (CoC) for the area, including the costs
of:
i. Purchasing or leasing computer hardware;
ii. Purchasing software or software licenses;
iii. Purchasing or leasing equipment, including telephones, fax machines, and
furniture;
iv. Obtaining technical support;
v. Leasing office space;
vi. Paying charges for electricity, gas, water, phone service, and high-speed data
transmission necessary to operate or contribute data to the HMIS;
vii. Paying salaries for operating HMIS, including:
● Completing data entry;
● Monitoring and reviewing data quality;
● Completing data analysis;
● Reporting to the HMIS Lead;
● Training staff on using the HMIS or comparable database; and
● Implementing and complying with HMIS requirements;
viii. Paying costs of staff to travel to and attend HUD-sponsored and HUD-approved
training on HMIS and programs authorized by Title IV of the McKinney-Vento
Homeless Assistance Act;
ix. Paying staff travel costs to conduct intake; and
x. Paying participation fees charged by the HMIS Lead, if
the recipient or subrecipient is not the HMIS Lead. The HMIS Lead is the entity
designated by the Continuum of Care to operate the area's HMIS.
If the subrecipient is a victim services provider or a legal services provider, it may
use ESG funds to establish and operate a comparable database that collects
client-level data over time (i.e., longitudinal data) and generates unduplicated
aggregate reports based on the data. Information entered into a comparable
database must not be entered directly into or provided to an HMIS. DOH’s
Required ESG comparable database is the CAFÉ system.
