Home investment partnerships program

The Municipio De Toa Baja received a formula grant allocation of $366,945.43 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development, under the Home Investment Partnerships Program (CFDA 14.239), effective September 18, 2025, with a completion date of September 30, 2034. This award supports affordable housing activities in Toa Baja, Puerto Rico, consistent with the municipality's status as a participating jurisdiction.

Under the HOME program, the municipality may direct funds toward rehabilitation of owner-occupied housing, homebuyer assistance, acquisition and rehabilitation of rental housing, and tenant-based rental assistance for low- to very low-income households. All HOME-assisted housing must meet federal income targeting and affordability requirements, with units remaining affordable to low-income households for 5 to 20 years depending on the activity type and level of HOME funding contribution. The municipality may undertake projects directly or distribute funds to developers, owners, and partner organizations engaged in affordable housing development. The award is subject to standard HOME program requirements, including submission of Consolidated and Annual Action Plans for HUD review and maintenance of records for five years beyond applicable affordability periods.
