Provide support to show that the performance history element was factored as part of the grantees’ capacity to manage the grants awarded through the 2025 NOFO.

Reevaluate ‘High Risk’ designation criteria as part of the SOP update and reimplement its updated ‘High Risk’ criteria to reflect how grantees will be designated as ‘High Risk’ within the program. In addition, train OLHCHH staff on the new ‘High Risk’ designation criteria stated in the SOP.

Notify grantees of HUD’s updated ‘High Risk’ designation criteria and HUD’s expectations when designated as ‘High Risk.’

Provide assistance to the nine identified ‘High Risk’ grantees that will help meet established performance benchmarks to be completed by the end of the respective grants in 2026.

Recapture $3,775,916 in undisbursed grant funds not used to meet agreed-upon performance benchmarks for the two identified ‘High Risk’ grantees whose period of performance ended in June and July 2025, respectively. In addition, identify those grantees that received 2020 through 2022 LBPHC and LHRD grants with a period of performance that ended on or before December 31, 2025, to determine whether agreed-upon performance benchmarks were met by that date, and take appropriate actions that include recapturing undisbursed grant funds.

Consider grantees’ suggestions to improve training sessions, technical assistance, and communication of information that grantees can use to help meet agreed-upon performance benchmarks. In addition, provide documentation to support the guidance OLHCHH plans to share with grantees to ensure agreed-upon performance benchmarks are met.

Reassess, establish, and incorporate a maximum review period of grantee-submitted QPRs into an SOP. Inform staff of the review period to ensure consistency and understanding of HUD’s expectations of the time to review grantee-submitted QPRs. In addition, establish formal guidance and implement internal controls to monitor and track the timely review of QPRs.
