Home investment partnerships program

The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development awarded Henry County Commissioners Of Roads & Revenues (doing business as County Of Henry) $450,812.87 under the Home Investment Partnerships Program (CFDA 14.239) on January 7, 2026, with performance through September 30, 2034.

The HOME program provides formula allocations to expand the supply of affordable housing, particularly rental housing, for low and very low income Americans, and to strengthen the abilities of state and local governments to design and implement strategies for achieving adequate supplies of decent housing. Henry County, a local government entity headquartered in McDonough, Georgia, receives direct formula allocations as an eligible urban county under the program's structure; funds are distributed by formula and cannot be appealed. The recipient must follow 24 CFR Part 91 requirements, including submission of a Consolidated Plan every five years and annual action plans and certifications for HUD review. Records documenting program compliance must be maintained for the most recent five-year period, with affordability documentation retained for five years beyond that required period.

Work is performed in McDonough, Georgia. This award represents one of three concurrent HOME formula grants obligated to Henry County; a second HOME award of $453,735.39 was obligated on October 25, 2024. Henry County's federal grant portfolio includes multiple HUD Community Development Block Grant formula awards running through 2033, alongside transportation, public safety, energy efficiency, and human services funding from the Departments of Transportation, Justice, Health and Human Services, and Energy.
