The Polk County Housing Trust Fund The Essentials
The Polk County Housing Trust Fund is the comprehensive planning, advocacy and funding organization for Affordable Housing in Polk County Iowa. Founded 16 years ago the Trust Fund is responsible for allocating state and local funds aimed at increasing and preserving the inventory of affordable units in the County. It is also responsible for conducting a combined local campaign for housing to fund non-profit providers that assist low income persons in obtaining and retaining those affordable housing units. This enables the PCHTF to create and sustain a broad and integrated vision for affordable housing inventory and the Supportive Services necessary to maximize the impact of that inventory. |
