HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) <br /> County of Hawai'i <br /> In the last five years, the County of Hawai'i received and expended HOME Investment <br /> Partnerships Program (HOME) funds totally$6,980,500. These funds were used throughout <br /> Hawai'i County for various housing activities including first-time homebuyer assistance, <br /> homeowner rehabilitation programs,the construction of rental housing, the construction of <br /> homebuyer units, senior housing, and Tenant Based Rental Assistance (TBRA), among others. <br /> The community has benefitted directly and indirectly from the use of HOME funds. The <br /> beneficiaries of these project accomplishments include the growing senior population, the <br /> disabled and homeless populations, and very low, low and moderate income persons and <br /> families, among others. <br /> The reduction or elimination of HOME funding would severely and adversely impact the <br /> development of Hawai'i County's affordable housing efforts. Through the provision of the <br /> HOME program funds many seniors, disabled, youth, homeless, abused and neglected <br /> households, among others, of the community of Hawaii County can enjoy decent, safe and <br /> affordable housing. <br />
