Project Grant 24HV0202000

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), through its Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers program (CFDA 14.871), awarded a $445,416 Project Grant to the Avcp Regional Housing Authority, a tribal housing agency serving communities in Alaska's Bethel and Kusilvak Census Areas. This grant funding supports the delivery of the following products and services:

The grant ensures uninterrupted housing assistance for over 2.2 million low-income households nationwide, with the potential to support leasing for up to 2.3 million households by the end of the award period on September 30, 2025. Specifically, the funding secures rental assistance payments, administrative costs, and efforts to help vulnerable populations such as families with disabilities, the elderly, and formerly homeless veterans access affordable housing in the private rental market. The grant also provides for the issuance of approximately 4,100 new incremental vouchers to address severe cost burdens, overcrowding, substandard housing, and homelessness among very low-income renters in the grantee's service area.

The Avcp Regional Housing Authority, a tribally owned housing agency, is the sole recipient of this award and will directly administer the housing voucher program and related services to the target beneficiaries within its service area.
