Notice CPD-01-05: Use of HOME Funds for Projects to be Occupied by Children in Foster Care

Description

This Notice clarifies the Department's position concerning the use of HOME Investment Partnerships Program funds for projects to be occupied by children in foster care.  In determining whether the project is eligible for HOME funds, the issue is not whether the children are legally committed to the custody of a state executive branch agency, i.e, "wards of the State." The issue is whether a particular project for foster children qualifies as "housing" under the HOME Program regulation at 24 C.F.R. 92.2.
