Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS - HOPWA

The Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) program is the only Federal program dedicated to the housing needs of people living with HIV/AIDS. Under the HOPWA program, the Housing & Urban Development Department (HUD) provides grants to local communities, states, and nonprofit organizations for housing projects that benefit low-income persons medically diagnosed with HIV/AIDS.
