Home investment partnerships program

The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development awarded $631,171.86 to County of Halifax, North Carolina, under the Home Investment Partnerships Program (CFDA 14.239) on November 24, 2025, for affordable housing activities. The award supports rehabilitation of owner-occupied homes, homebuyer assistance, acquisition and rehabilitation or construction of rental housing, and tenant-based rental assistance for low-income households. Housing assisted through HOME funding must remain affordable to low-income households for 5, 10, 15, or 20 years depending on the activity type and amount of HOME funding contributed. County of Halifax, a participating jurisdiction, may undertake HOME projects directly or provide funds to developers, owners, or other housing partners. Performance occurs in Halifax, North Carolina, with a completion date of September 30, 2034. This is a formula grant; the HOME program allocates 60 percent of annual appropriations to eligible localities and 40 percent to states based on need-based formulas rather than competitive application.
