Robstown Housing Authority

Robstown Housing Authority, a tax-exempt non-profit public housing agency based in Robstown, Texas, receives federal grants as a prime recipient from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to fund public housing operations, capital modernization, and resident self-sufficiency programming. The organization operates exclusively as a grant recipient with no federal contract awards, serving a single federal customer (HUD) across 64 awards totaling $29.9 million obligated since 2006.

Robstown Housing Authority's grant portfolio centers on four core HUD programs delivering housing services to low-income families, elderly residents, and persons with disabilities in Robstown. The Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) provides operating subsidies for day-to-day management, maintenance, security, energy costs, resident services, and administrative expenses across the agency's public housing inventory; recent awards include $793,725 (January 2026, performance through December 2032) and a prior $793,725 grant (January 2025, performance through December 2031). The Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) finances capital improvements, modernization, development, and emergency safety and security work; active awards include $775,181 (April 2026, performance through March 2030), $250,000 for safety and security emergency measures (September 2025, performance through September 2027), and prior grants from May 2024 and May 2025. The Family Self-Sufficiency Program (CFDA 14.879) funds coordinator salaries and fringe to support FSS program implementation for public housing and Housing Choice Voucher residents; Robstown maintains active awards through December 2026 and prior renewals in 2024, 2023, and 2022. The Jobs-Plus Pilot Initiative (CFDA 14.870, Resident Opportunity and Supportive Services - Service Coordinators) provides employment and economic opportunity support; the current award of $272,250 runs through May 2029, with a prior award completing May 2026.

Activity has been steady across the past five years (three to four awards annually) with no prime contract or subcontract exposure. All 64 awards are formula grants and project grants from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, and four awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. Robstown Housing Authority's grant work is entirely self-directed operational and capital funding for its own public housing portfolio; the organization does not subcontract to vendors and does not serve as a sub-recipient on awards from other entities.
