Childress Housing Authority

Childress Housing Authority, a U.S. local government housing authority based in Childress, Texas, receives federal formula grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to fund public housing operations and capital improvements. As a government entity recipient, Childress Housing Authority does not compete for federal contracts and operates exclusively as a prime recipient of HUD grants; it has no federal contract prime or sub-award footprint.

Childress Housing Authority's federal funding stream consists entirely of HUD Public Housing program grants under two primary vehicles: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.871) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872). Operating Fund grants provide ongoing subsidies for day-to-day operational expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service on the authority's public housing portfolio. Capital Fund grants support modernization, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, and energy efficiency upgrades under an HUD-approved five-year action plan. Recent awards include a Public Housing Capital Fund grant of $240,658 effective April 1, 2026 with ultimate completion by March 31, 2030; a Public Housing Operating Fund grant effective January 1, 2026 running through December 31, 2032; and a Public Housing Capital Fund grant effective May 13, 2025 with ultimate completion by May 12, 2029. The authority must comply with 24 CFR Part 905 and 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, maintain accurate inventory data, and submit annual certifications to HUD's Information Management System.

All 43 awards in the source data represent recurring formula-based allocations from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office — the sole customer agency. The authority has received grants consistently since at least 2006, with recent annual volume of two awards per year from 2024 through 2026. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $6.5 million. Two awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. As a municipal housing authority, Childress Housing Authority does not participate in federal contracting vehicles, manage subcontractors, or pursue competitive procurement opportunities; its federal footprint is limited to statutory formula-grant allocations for public housing administration.
