The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) program awarded $196,749.00 on January 1, 2025 to the Administration De Vivienda Publica (the Housing Administration), the public housing agency for the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. This Formula Grant is designed to provide operating subsidies to local housing authorities to support the day-to-day operational expenses of public housing projects.
The funding will enable the Housing Administration to cover costs associated with managing and maintaining its portfolio of low-income housing units across Puerto Rico. This includes property management, routine and preventive maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy cost management, resident supportive services, and administrative expenses. Additionally, the Puerto Rico Commonwealth government, specifically the Office of the Governor and the Puerto Rico Commission of Volunteerism and Community Service, will serve as a subrecipient to assist in implementing public housing assistance across Puerto Rican communities using the HUD funding.
