BISMARCK, ND – North Dakota Housing Finance Agency (NDHFA) announces the selection of 2024 funding recipients for supportive services under the HOME Investment Partnerships American Rescue Plan (HOME-ARP).

“This one-time federal funding opportunity is a critical tool toward creating a more stable housing environment for those who most need it,” said Dave Flohr, NDHFA’s executive director.

HOME-ARP funds provide financial support to eligible non-profit organizations to reduce homelessness and increase housing stability and must benefit qualifying individuals and families who are homeless, at risk of homelessness, or in other vulnerable populations.

NDHFA received 13 applications requesting over $8.6 million. Two applicants were selected to receive the $2.6 million available in funding: Community Action Partnership North Dakota and Presentation Partners in Housing.

Community Action Partnership North Dakota will use the funding to mobilize the statewide community action network and create a program that will reach underserved regions throughout North Dakota. The program is anticipated to roll out in January 2025.

Presentation Partners in Housing serves the Fargo area and will utilize the funding to support qualifying households through their existing housing programs.

The application process for awarding funds is competitive and based on the supportive services threshold and scoring criteria outlined in the allocation plan. For more details on this program, the application process or allocation plan, visit NDHFA’s website.

A self-supporting and mission-driven state agency, NDHFA is dedicated to making housing affordable for all North Dakotans. The North Dakota Industrial Commission, consisting of Governor Doug Burgum as chairman, Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring and Attorney General Drew H. Wrigley, oversees NDHFA.
