Through the group, IHCDA will be able to obtain feedback regarding the design of the HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME), to provide technical assistance on the requirements of the CHDO set-aside funding, to ensure CHDOs are meeting the needs of the communities they serve and to provide capacity building to these nonprofit organizations.

They also joined the other groups in breakout sessions where they discussed innovative ideas for their youth groups, met with elected state leaders, and learned about ongoing community development projects occurring throughout the state. If you would like to learn more about MCMV or are interested in joining next year’s 2019-2020 MCMV program, an information webinar will be hosted on March 20th.
