The awards provide project-based rental assistance, and awardees will also partner with Medicaid and other health and human services agencies to connect residents with voluntary community-based services that support independent living.
Most agencies received $7.45 million. The Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency received $3,527,760, the California Housing Finance Agency received $6,812,031, and the Nebraska Investment Finance Authority received $6 million. Recipients are located in states including Ohio, Hawaii, Washington, Illinois, Indiana, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Vermont, Michigan, Rhode Island, Minnesota, Connecticut, Kansas, Wisconsin, Kentucky, Louisiana, Oregon, Maryland and California.
HUD said the investment supports the administration's priorities to increase affordable housing supply and expand access to housing.
