Description:

The purpose of this program is to invest in the creation and maintenance of a professional and effective housing counseling industry that is able to meaningfully assist consumers by providing them with the information they need to make informed housing choices. Support will be provided for the provision of both basic housing counseling training and specialized topics of training to help meet perceived needs.

Funding will support housing counseling agencies in increasing the use of partnerships with local and statewide organizations to provide additional place-based training on state and local issues. Funding should also result in an increased number of training scholarships.
