Imperial Valley Affordable Housing, Incorporated

Imperial Valley Affordable Housing, Incorporated, doing business as Imperial Valley Housing, is a U.S. local government housing authority that receives federal grants as the sole recipient from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to operate and maintain public housing serving low-income residents in the Imperial Valley and Brawley, California.

Imperial Valley Housing operates exclusively as a prime recipient under three HUD grant programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850), the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), and the Family Self-Sufficiency Program. Operating Fund awards cover day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, including property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation. Capital Fund awards support modernization, infrastructure improvements, development, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and construction or acquisition of additional public housing units, all executed in accordance with the agency's HUD-approved 5-Year Action Plan. Family Self-Sufficiency Program grants fund salary and fringe benefits for FSS coordinators responsible for enrolling and maintaining families in the program, preparing individual training and services plans, and building community partnerships. Representative recent awards include a $2,025,745 Public Housing Capital Fund formula grant (April 2026–March 2030) supporting capital improvements to public housing inventory, multiple Public Housing Operating Fund formula grants in 2026 ranging from $152,797 to $195,696 supporting operations through 2032, and annual Family Self-Sufficiency Program project grants (January 2026–December 2026 and January 2025–December 2025) funding FSS coordinator positions.

Imperial Valley Housing has received 110 federal awards since 2006, all from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, with $67.5 million in combined obligations. The grant stream is steady — six awards annually from 2022 through 2026. Six awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, all operating and capital fund grants. The agency has no federal contract experience and does not compete under set-asides; as a government entity, it receives formula and project grant allocations directly from HUD rather than competing in federal procurement.
