Housing Trust Fund dollars support a wide range of capital projects that house diverse low-income populations. Properties financed by the program can house people earning less than 80% of the Area Median Income, but most of these properties house households with special needs or incomes below 30% of the Area Median Income.
This includes people and families experiencing homelessness, people needing supportive housing, seniors, veterans, farmworkers, and people with developmental or other disabilities. Special-needs projects coordinate with state and local service providers to ensure clients receive appropriate housing and services.

In January 2026, DOE Policy Flash PF-2026-30 wiped out every 15% and 10% indirect cost cap the administration had imposed in 2025 — because H.R. 6938 ordered it to. The same law froze indirect policy at NSF, Commerce and NASA. But OMB's sweeping new grants rule quietly reopens the fight through the back door. Here is what changed, what money recipients can claw back, and how to protect your indirect recovery going forward.
