On July 15, Governor JB Pritzker and the Illinois Housing Development Authority (IHDA) Board announced conditional awards of nearly $12 million in Rebuild Illinois funding to provide critical improvements to 27 affordable housing developments in Illinois. The funds will be used to address code violations, resolve security issues and improve the health and safety of residents in more than 1,400 units of affordable rental housing.

The funds were awarded under the new Limited Rehabilitation Preservation Program and will be used for capital repairs to preserve the safety and long-term stability of affordable rental housing for very low-income or low-income households in the state.
