Funding Outlook for Newer Grant Programs

Pathways to Removing Obstacles (PRO) Housing

PRO Housing is a new competitive grant program open to states and local communities that are actively taking steps to remove barriers to affordable housing, such as:

Barriers caused by outdated zoning, land use polices, or regulations;
Inefficient procedures;
Gaps in available resources for development;
Deteriorating or inadequate infrastructure;
Lack of neighborhood amenities; or
Challenges to preserving existing housing stock such as increasing threats from natural hazards, redevelopment pressures, or expiration of affordability requirements.

HUD has already awarded $85 million in FY23 PRO Housing grants and $100 million in FY24 funding. More information is available on HUD’s website.

Congress appropriated another $100 million for PRO Housing in FY25. HUD has not yet released a NOFO for this round of funding.

Recovery Housing Program (RHP)

The Recovery Housing Program (RHP) was authorized under Section 8071 of the Support for Patients and Communities (SUPPORT) Act. RHP allows States and D.C. to provide stable, transitional housing for individuals in recovery from a substance-use disorder.

Congress has appropriated a total of $135 million for RHP since Fiscal Year 2020, with the most recent appropriation being $30 million in FY25.

Preservation and Reinvestment Initiative for Community Enhancement (PRICE)

PRICE is a new grant program that uses the CDBG statutory and regulatory framework to support communities in their efforts to maintain, protect, and stabilize manufactured housing and manufactured housing communities (MHCs).

Congress first funded PRICE at $225 million in FY23. HUD included an additional $10 million from FY24 appropriations in its 2024 PRICE NOFO. Learn more about the program on the HUD website.

Congress appropriated another $10 million for the PRICE program in its FY25 full-year continuing resolution (CR).

Economic Development Initiative - Community Project Funding (CPF) Grants

Congress re-started congressionally-directed spending grants (informally called “earmarks”) in FY22. HUD is responsible for administering projects that fall under the Economic Development Initiative – Community Project Funding (CPF) grants program. CPF grants provide investment in a wide variety of projects such as housing, homelessness prevention, workforce training, public facilities, parks, resilience planning and other critical infrastructure and services. More information is available on the HUD website.

CPF grants have received over $7.7 billion from Congress since FY22.

Final FY25 funding did not include any CPF projects, since Congress dissolved earmarks under the full-year continuing resolution (CR) agreement.
