The Continuum of Care (CoC) Grant Inventory Worksheet (GIW) report is used to record all grants within a CoC’s geographic area that are eligible for renewal funding in the upcoming CoC Program Competition. The GIW calculates an Annual Renewal Amount (ARA) for each project, which is the sum of each project’s renewable budget line items (BLIs) (e.g., rental assistance, leasing, supportive services) and identifies the maximum renewal amount a renewal project applicant may apply for during the CoC Program Competition. The GIW report also calculates the CoC’s Estimated Annual Renewal Demand (ARD), which is the sum of all ARAs within the CoC.

Continuum of Care (CoC) Collaborative Applicants must review their Grant Inventory Worksheet (GIW) report when distributed by HUD and, if needed, submit requests for corrections to HUD using the GIW Change Form.

Collaborative Applicants are encouraged to review the GIW Instructions for CoCs, Collaborative Applicants, and Project Applicants before proceeding.
