HOME and NSP: Creating Affordable Housing, Stabilizing Neighborhoods

Course Description

HOME and NSP focuses on key program topics such as NSP eligible activities; ways that HOME can be invested in NSP homebuyer and rental projects; meeting low income targeting rules for both HOME and NSP; and key program implementation issues such as administrative costs, program income, and affordability periods. The course will include a combination of lecture and short exercises. In addition, the course will provide answers to common HOME and NSP questions and will highlight HUD interpretation of key policy issues.

Who Should Attend

The HOME and NSP Training is appropriate for HOME Participating Jurisdictions (PJs) who receive NSP funds directly from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) or are currently receiving NSP funds from another NSP recipient (e.g., the State). This class covers the HOME and NSP Federal program requirements. HOME PJs receiving NSP funds from a state may attend the class but should be advised that the state’s HOME or NSP program requirements may be more targeted or stringent than the Federal program requirements. Other HOME and NSP recipients such as other public agencies, CHDOs, subrecipients or other nonprofits will be wait-listed and admitted only if space permits. For-profit organizations are not allowed to register.
