Overview
The NYS Targeted Home Improvement Program (T-HIP) is a pilot grant program to support critical repairs for low- and moderate-income homeowners. The program aims to help homeowners build and retain equity and support community stabilization and renewal efforts in low-income areas throughout NYS.
The funding for this pilot program will be focused in areas of persistent and structural discrimination in housing which has resulted in wide racial wealth gaps, unequal access to homeownership, concentrated poverty for individuals of color and otherwise segregated living patterns in disinvested communities.
