Over half of Green and Resilient Retrofit Program funding has been awarded to combat the climate crisis, advance environmental justice, and improve lives for residents in HUD-supported housing.
HUD Green and Resilient Retrofit Program
GRRP provides owners of HUD-assisted multifamily housing with capital resources to reduce carbon emissions, make utility efficiency improvements, incorporate renewable energy sources, and make properties more resilient against the effects of climate hazards. HUD has three paths (cohorts) of funding available to meet the needs of properties at all stages of redevelopment.
