The U.S. Department of the Treasury's Community Development Financial Institutions Fund (CDFI Fund) awarded 52 organizations $321.2 million today for the development of affordable housing and community facilities serving low-income individuals, families, and communities. These awards were made through the fiscal year (FY) 2023 round of the Capital Magnet Fund (CMF), and will support financing for the preservation, rehabilitation, development, or purchase of affordable housing as well as related economic development and community service facilities such as day care centers, workforce development centers, and health care clinics.
“The FY 2023 CMF awards will provide Community Development Financial Institutions and nonprofit housing organizations with the critical resources they need to expand the availability of affordable housing for thousands of families and individuals in need across the country,” said Acting CDFI Fund Director Marcia Sigal. “Today’s awards are projected to leverage more than $11.1 billion in private and public sector resources, all of which will be focused on addressing the shortfall in affordable housing that persists throughout our nation’s distressed and underserved communities.”
