The Housing Stability Council recently approved the funding reservation for the 2018 Rental LIFT awards. Nearly $54 million in LIFT resources will go to fund nine projects across the state providing a total of 837 new affordable homes for families in underserved communities. This round of LIFT will fund a total of nine affordable housing communities across the state including developments in Lincoln, Umatilla, Multnomah, Marion, Polk and Washington counties. Each of these developments is highlighted by robust service partnerships and targeted outreach to work to address disparities and ensure that the future residents have opportunities to achieve self-sufficiency.
