HOME Program

  • VHCB administers the federal HOME Investment Partnership Program for the State of Vermont. Developments with HOME funds serve low- and very low-income Vermonters, increasing affordability in rental housing developments. VHCB has awarded more than $83 million in HOME funds since the program began in 1992.

    For detailed information on the HOME Program, see the HOME Program Handbook.
