This Project Grant award is provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Section 4 Capacity Building for Community Development and Affordable Housing program (CFDA 14.252). The $11,000,000 grant aims to enhance the technical and administrative capabilities of Community Development Corporations (CDCs) and Community Housing Development Organizations (CHDOs) to carry out affordable housing and community development activities that benefit low-income and low- to moderate-income families.

Key activities include providing training, education, support, and financial assistance to CDCs and CHDOs to build their capacity in areas such as community planning, navigating federal resources, and evaluating performance. The grant also supports pass-through funding to CDCs and CHDOs to increase their ability to implement community development and affordable housing initiatives. The award was granted on August 9, 2024 with an expected completion date of August 9, 2028. The prime awardee is Habitat for Humanity International Inc., which will distribute sub-awards to local Habitat for Humanity affiliates and other CDCs/CHDOs to increase their staffing and organizational capacity to address affordable housing needs within their communities.
