Housing Counseling Assistance Program

What this funds

R esources O blig ations Net O utlays The 2027 President's Budget eliminates funding for the Housing Counseling Assistance program, which provides individuals and families with counseling on a spectrum of housing matters through a national network of HUD-approved housing counseling agencies and counselors. The 2027 Budget recognizes a greater role for State and local governments, the private sector, and nonprofits to address housing, community, and economic development needs in localities across the Nation. Thus, HUD will continue to seek ways to partner with these governmental and private entities to adopt policies and reduce regulatory barriers that would allow communities to transform neighborhoods and unleash the potential of their residents.
