Harris County Commissioners Court approved changes to our Annual Action Plans for 2022, 2024, and 2025. These plans guide how federal housing and community development money gets spent in our neighborhoods. The plans use funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to help families find affordable housing, fix up homes, and strengthen communities across Harris County. When commissioners change these plans, they can shift money between programs or add new projects that serve residents better. These changes matter because they affect real programs in our neighborhoods. The money helps first-time homebuyers, fixes sidewalks and streets, supports homeless services, and funds community centers. Changes to the plans might mean more money for your area or new programs that help your family. Harris County covers many communities outside Houston city limits, including unincorporated areas where many working families live. The Commissioners Court meets regularly to review these housing programs and make sure they serve residents who need help most. You can track these decisions and speak at public meetings when housing issues affect your neighborhood. Contact Paola Martinez at the Community Services Department for questions about how these plan changes impact your community or to learn about available housing programs.
