Coordinating Low-Income Housing Planning grants support activities that plan for and accommodate housing that is affordable for individuals and families earning less than 50 percent of the area median income.
Grants are available to a county or a city planning department, a homeless housing lead or similar department within a local government, or a local non-profit provider of affordable or homeless housing or services in partnership with one or more local governments. Up to $50,000 in funding is available for each county or regional application, so applicants are encouraged to work together.
Funding is available for a variety of eligible activities, such as coordinating policies and data and developing countywide planning that support the lowest income housing needs and policies.
See the Grant Instructions below for more details.
