The Housing Authority intends to submit an application to HUD for consideration of joining the MTW Demonstration Program. Information about the program can be found at the HUD Moving to Work Expansion Website: https://www.hud.gov/program_offices/public_indian_housing/programs/ph/mtw/expansion.
The MTW program allows housing authorities to use flexibilities to create new programs aimed at Family Self-Sufficiency, Cost Effectiveness, and Housing Choice. In response to a number of local challenges, the MTW plan would allow the housing authority to implement programs aimed at increasing housing opportunities for residents with the development of homeownership or rent to own programs, partner with other area organizations to implement new programs around job readiness and workforce development, and create flexibilities around programs per the MTW guidelines and provisions.
Residents are asked to submit their comments and questions regarding the intent to apply for the desigation program.
