The HOME program distributes formula allocations to states, cities, urban counties, and consortia to expand the supply of affordable housing for low and very low income Americans. Participating jurisdictions must submit a Consolidated Plan every five years and an Annual Action Plan annually, subject to HUD review within 45 days of receipt. The City distributes HOME funds directly or through sub-awards to developers, nonprofit organizations, and community partners to implement eligible housing and community development activities in compliance with federal income targeting and affordability maintenance requirements.
