The National Affordable Housing Act of 1990 (the Act) created the HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME). The Act's objectives include promoting partnerships between states, local governments and nonprofit organizations and increasing the capacity of nonprofit organizations to develop and manage affordable housing. To help achieve these objectives the Act requires that participating jurisdictions (PJs) set-aside at least 15% of their HOME funds for housing that is developed, owned, or sponsored by Community Housing Development Organizations (CHDOs). CHDOs are a specific type of nonprofit organization defined in the HOME Final Rule (24 CFR Part 92). This application for CHDO certification covers the following topics: 1. Provides the HOME Program definition of a CHDO; 2. Outlines the criteria for qualifying as a CHDO; 3. Describes the eligible uses of CHDO set-aside funds; 4.
