Jefferson Parish Housing Authority Of

Jefferson Parish Housing Authority Of, a U.S. government entity and public housing authority headquartered in Marrero, Louisiana, receives federal grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to fund capital improvements, modernization, and operational expenses for low-income public housing in Jefferson Parish. The authority acts exclusively as a prime recipient of federal housing grants; it does not hold federal contracts, contract vehicles, or subcontracting relationships.

The authority's federal funding footprint is entirely concentrated in HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, which has obligated 53 of 54 tracked awards (combined $21.7 million across all awards). The authority receives recurring formula grants under two primary HUD programs: the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), which funds construction, acquisition, modernization, infrastructure improvements, and emergency repairs to the authority's public housing inventory; and the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850), which funds day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, property management, security, energy costs, and resident supportive services. Recent Capital Fund awards include a $627,028 grant obligated April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030, and a preceding $627,028 award obligated May 13, 2025, through May 12, 2029. The authority received a $362,935 Operating Fund grant obligated January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2032, and a prior $362,935 grant obligated January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2031. The authority's federal award pattern shows consistent two-award-per-year frequency in the past five years — one annual Capital Fund grant and one annual Operating Fund grant, reflecting HUD's standard formula-grant cycle for public housing agencies.

Three awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating moderate recompete activity. The authority also received a single Department of Homeland Security award unrelated to its primary housing mission. As a public housing authority, Jefferson Parish Housing Authority Of operates within the federal grant system rather than the federal procurement market; federal contractors pursuing business with the authority would do so as construction, modernization, or operational service vendors responding to the authority's use of HUD capital and operating funds, not as prime or subcontract partners on federal awards.
