RFA- Housing Production Investment Fund Grant

The RFA - Housing Production Investment Fund aims to enhance affordable housing availability by leveraging federal HOME funds. This program, established under the National Affordable Housing Act of 1990, provides state and local governments with essential resources to create decent housing for low- and very low-income households. It also strengthens governmental capacity and promotes private sector participation, thereby expanding the role of nonprofit housing providers in community development.

Introduction
The HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) was created by the National Affordable Housing Act of 1990 (NAHA) and is the largest Federal block grant available to states and local governments to create affordable housing. Every year, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) determines the amount of HOME funds that state and local governments receive using a formula allocation based on relative housing need.
The intent of the HOME Program is to:

The HOME Program regulations are found at 24 CFR Part 92.
