Funding for essential support services in affordable housing communities.
This Act establishes a new competitive grant program to fund additional support services for residents living in federally assisted affordable housing properties. Residents gain voluntary access to services like mental health care, educational programs, financial literacy training, and assistance for seniors aging in place. The goal is to enhance residents' economic self-sufficiency and overall well-being.
Key points
Grants fund voluntary services for residents of affordable housing, ensuring no resident is required to accept them.
Services focus on improving health access, educational opportunities, and financial stability for low-income families and seniors.
At least 25% of the grant money must be used to pay and train the service coordinators who deliver these programs.
