Public Housing Capital Fund Award Summary

The East Providence Housing Authority Inc. received a $1,145,228 formula grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office under the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) program, effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030. This award supports capital and management activities for public housing serving low-income residents in East Providence, Rhode Island. The funding enables the housing authority to undertake modernization projects, infrastructure improvements, energy efficiency upgrades, emergency repairs, and development activities that enhance the public housing inventory and operational quality.

As a formula-based allocation, the funds are distributed to eligible Public Housing Agencies based on established criteria including unit counts, building age, and construction costs rather than through competitive application processes. The housing authority must comply with federal requirements including 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, maintain accurate inventory data, and submit annual certifications to HUD. Eligible activities are limited to those described in 24 CFR Part 905 and specified in an approved five-year action plan or approved for emergency work and disaster-related repairs. No sub-awardee partners have been documented for this award.
