A new study details cuts in local housing aid caused by a Department of Housing and Urban Development funding change.
Funding shortfalls in a key federal housing program resulting from a recent change in federal policies are causing widespread reductions in housing assistance to low-income families, seniors, and people with disabilities, new research from the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, the National Low Income Housing Coalition and the Council of Large Public Housing Authorities finds.
The study is the first large-scale compilation of cuts in assistance that are occurring as a result of the funding shortfalls. Together, the 190 housing agencies assist roughly 30 percent of all families helped by the program nationally.
