These rental units will serve very low-income, homeless Veterans. Renovations will make the houses more usable, energy efficient, and add three new bedrooms to five of the units.

“I am very glad that some of this money will be used to help our low-income and homeless Veterans,” Rep. Johnson. “These men and women deserve a helping hand.”

The Housing Trust Fund was established by the THDA Board of Directors in 2006. Since the first competitive grant round in 2007, the HTF has contributed over $27 million to new, innovative, affordable housing initiatives across the state.
