Rural self-help housing technical assist

Through the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Rural Housing Service Single Family Housing Program, the Rural Self-Help Housing Technical Assistance grant (CFDA 10.420) provides $1,722,000.00 in funding to Housing America Corporation, a non-profit community development organization, to deliver technical assistance services that enable very low- and low-income individuals and families in rural Arizona to build their own homes using the self-help construction method. Housing America Corporation has received multiple federal project grant awards totaling over $5 million under this program to support self-help housing technical assistance. Additionally, the organization has received federal sub-grant funding to develop affordable housing for low-income homebuyers in partnership with the City of Yuma, as well as to provide comprehensive housing counseling and HUD certification services in collaboration with the Rural Community Assistance Corporation.
