Urge Congress to Fund the Section 4 Capacity Building Program at $50 Million in FY 2027
On behalf of Enterprise Community Partners, Habitat for Humanity International, and the Local Initiatives Support Corporation, thank you for signing last year’s organizational letter in support of the Section 4 Program.
In FY 2026, Congress provided $46 million for the Section 4 Capacity Building and Affordable Housing Program. This was one of the largest year-over-year gains in the program’s history and your advocacy made this possible.
With budget cuts expected for FY 2027, we need your assistance to keep Section 4 sustainable. Your advocacy is needed now more than ever to preserve the Section 4 Program. The 2026 sign on letter opened last week and we hope your organization can once again voice support for Section 4 by signing on to the letter using this link. The deadline has been extended to March 9th. If you already joined the letter, we are grateful for your help.
The letter requests no less than $50 million for Section 4 in the FY 2027 budget. In addition, we ask for further appropriations to the Self-Help and Assisted Homeownership Opportunity Program account, which supports many critical HUD programs, in order to accommodate the additional requested funds for Section 4.
Please share this sign on opportunity with your networks. We appreciate your advocacy.
TAKE ACTION BY MARCH 9TH
Help us tell Congress that communities–and the nonprofits that work there–matter.
