The PIP Program is intended to increase participation in HCD’s Prohousing Designation Program by pairing the designation with an impactful award grant.
The Prohousing Incentive Pilot Program is a state investment from the Building Homes and Jobs Trust Fund, established by Chapter 364, Statutes of 2017 (SB 2, Atkins) to create and conserve affordable housing. HCD will award PIP funds to eligible jurisdictions with Prohousing Designation, with additional bonus dollars available based on a jurisdiction’s Prohousing Designation Program application score.
