Housing Action Partnership Program
The Housing Action Partnerships Program is designed to provide financing for the development of mixed use housing developments. This program provides matching funds to applicants whose financial needs cannot be addressed with other existing SC State Housing programs. The program will be available on a statewide basis. Eligible activities include rental development and homeownership opportunities. At the beginning of each fiscal year, SC State Housing's Board of Commissioners will determine if money is available to support the program.
