"These research opportunities will ensure that we are supporting inclusive communities for all, HUD must work to uplift and support those people who have been historically disadvantaged and left behind," said HUD Agency Head, The Honorable Adrianne Todman .
"One way we do this is by supporting minority-serving institutions in their vital research on housing and related topics. These universities are the anchors of Black, brown, and native communities across our nation, and we are proud to support them."
The research conducted through these partnerships will provide valuable insights that inform policies and create stronger, more inclusive and thriving communities, while advancing HUD's Learning Agenda.
The funding opportunity will support research that addresses pressing questions in housing and community development, while also strengthening the ability of MSIs to conduct impactful research that benefits the communities and students they serve.
