Affordable Housing Development Grants (2026)
Affordable housing development funding helps nonprofits, community development corporations, and mission-driven developers build, acquire, and preserve homes that low- and moderate-income households can afford. These programs cover new construction, acquisition and rehabilitation, predevelopment costs, and gap financing — often through HUD's HOME Investment Partnerships program and state housing trust funds.
