This department is offering the Choice Neighborhoods Planning Grant. This grant is for supporting comprehensive neighborhood revitalization plans targeting severely distressed public/HUD-assisted housing and surrounding distressed neighborhoods. The program aims to replace distressed housing with high-quality, mixed-income options; improve youth educational outcomes and intergenerational mobility; and foster public/private reinvestment. This will create amenities like safety, good schools, and commercial activity. Grantees develop a ‘Transformation Plan’ guiding housing revitalization, neighborhood transformation, and ensuring positive outcomes for families.

| Description: | The Choice Neighborhoods program targets funding to improve severely distressed public and/or HUD-assisted Multifamily housing that is located in distressed neighborhoods. Planning Grants support the development of comprehensive neighborhood revitalization plans which, when implemented, will be expected to achieve the following three core goals: 1. Housing: Replace distressed public and assisted housing with high-quality mixed-income housing that is well-managed and responsive to the needs of the surrounding neighborhood; 2. People: Improve educational outcomes and intergenerational mobility for youth and supports delivered directly to youth and their families; and 3. Neighborhood: Create the conditions necessary for public and private reinvestment in distressed neighborhoods to offer the kinds of amenities and assets, including safety, good schools, and commercial activity, that are important to familiesÂ’ choices about their community. To achieve these core goals, communities must develop and implement a comprehensive neighborhood revitalization strategy, or Transformation Plan. This Transformation Plan will become the guiding document for the revitalization of the public and/or assisted housing units, while simultaneously directing the transformation of the surrounding neighborhood and positive outcomes for families. |
