Department of Housing and Urban Development

Description

The purpose of the CFCF program is to provide capital funding to Public Housing Authorities (PHAs) for the construction, rehabilitation, or purchase of facilities to provide early childhood education, adult education, and/or job training programs for public housing residents based on an identified need. Additionally, PHAs may use CFCF program funding to rehabilitate existing community facilities that will offer comprehensive, integrated services. These facilities will offer comprehensive, integrated services to help public housing residents achieve better educational and economic outcomes resulting in long-term economic self-sufficiency. In accordance with Section 9 of the United States Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437g) (1937 Act), and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Fiscal Year 2010 Appropriations Act (Public Law 111-117), the CFCF program provides grants to PHAs to 1) construct new community facilities; 2) purchase or acquire facilities; or 3) rehabilitate existing facilities to be used as education and training community facilities by PHA residents. The facilities are for the predominant use of PHA residents; however, non-public housing residents may participate.
