Home investment partnerships program

The City of Huntington received a formula grant award of $549,855.31 from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development under the Home Investment Partnerships Program (CFDA 14.239), effective September 24, 2025, with a completion date of September 30, 2034. This funding supports the expansion and preservation of affordable housing for low and very low-income residents in Huntington, West Virginia.

Under the HOME program, the City of Huntington will utilize these funds for eligible housing activities, which may include rehabilitation of owner-occupied housing, homebuyer assistance, acquisition and rehabilitation of rental housing, and tenant-based rental assistance. All assisted housing must meet federal income targeting and affordability requirements, with units remaining affordable for 5 to 20 years depending on the activity type. As a formula grant recipient, the City of Huntington must submit annual Action Plans and maintain comprehensive records documenting compliance with program requirements for five years beyond the affordability period, in accordance with 24 CFR Part 91.
