The primary focus of the County’s effort is to increase accessibility to safe, affordable housing and assure the continuation of an adequate housing stock.  The Bureau of Housing is the administrator for Community Development Block Grant Multi-Jurisdictional Housing Rehabilitation, HOME Program, Section 8 program, Senior Home Improvement Program, and the Union County Lead Hazard Reduction Demonstration Program.

The HOME program provides for increased access to decent housing and suitable living environments for low and very low-income families.  HOME funds may be used to provide home purchase or rehabilitation financing assistance to homeowners and new homebuyers; to build or rehabilitate housing; to demolish dilapidated housing; and to acquire or improve property.
