This multi-year grant, effective January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2031, provides operating subsidies to HHA to fund the day-to-day operational expenses of its public housing portfolio. Specifically, the grant supports activities such as property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy cost management, resident supportive services, and administrative expenses. This funding aims to help HHA maintain affordable, decent, and safe housing units for over 1.5 million public housing residents nationwide, with a focus on serving low-income families, the elderly, and persons with disabilities. Additionally, HHA has been awarded federal grant sub-awards and sub-contracts for housing-related research and disaster recovery efforts, leveraging its expertise in housing data management and program implementation.
