Warwick Housing Authority

Warwick Housing Authority, a U.S. local government entity based in Warwick, Rhode Island, is the recipient of formula grants and project grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to fund public housing operations, capital improvements, and family self-sufficiency programming. The authority does not serve as a federal contractor or subcontractor; all activity in the source represents direct grant funding to Warwick Housing Authority as a public housing authority recipient.

The authority's federal award portfolio is concentrated entirely within HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office (100% of awards). Recent funding supports three primary programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850), which provides formula-based subsidies for day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses including property management, routine maintenance, security, energy costs, and resident supportive services; the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), a formula grant supporting capital improvements such as modernization, infrastructure upgrades, emergency repairs, and energy efficiency enhancements; and the Family Self-Sufficiency Program (FSS), a project grant funding FSS coordinator positions responsible for enrolling residents, preparing individual training and services plans, and building partnerships with employers and community service providers. Recent awards include a $1.18 million Public Housing Capital Fund grant effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030; multiple Public Housing Operating Fund allocations ranging from $188 thousand to $253 thousand effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032; and FSS coordinator funding effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026.

Over the past five years, the authority has received 23 total awards with combined dollar obligation of $10.6 million. Activity accelerated in 2024, rising from a single award annually in 2022 and 2023 to seven awards per year in 2024, 2025, and 2026. Two awards face ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months, representing minimal recompete exposure in that window. The authority functions as a prime recipient across all awarded grants and does not subcontract federal work.
