Homeless Providers and PBC ELIGIBLE ENTITIES are defined as follows:

Public agencies and private nonprofit organizations: Public agencies and private nonprofit
organizations are often eligible for one of several public benefit conveyance programs that make surplus
properties available at up to 100-percent discount of fair market value. Surplus military property may be
conveyed to these public agencies and private nonprofits to provide vital public services such as education,
health care, homeless services, parks and recreation, law enforcement, prisons, self-help housing, and
transportation. Under the public benefit programs, eligible entities must apply to a sponsoring Federal
agency. For example, if a city wanted to obtain surplus Federal property for use as a local park, it would
make an application to the Department of Interior. A complete list of sponsoring Federal agencies will be
provided in the Request for Notices of Interest.

Homeless assistance providers: These participants may include State or local government agencies or
private nonprofit organizations that provide or propose to provide assistance to homeless persons and
families. Representatives of the homeless seek buildings and properties that may provide supportive
services, job skills training, employment programs, shelter, transitional housing, permanent housing, food
and clothing banks, treatment facilities, or any other activity that clearly meets an identified need of the
homeless and fills a gap in the local Continuum of Care.

Private Entities: Private entities may range from multinational corporations to small businesses that, in
most cases, are critical to a community's economic recovery from base closure or realignment. Private
companies are frequently interested in the reuse potential for surplus base buildings and property.
