The Super NOFA is issued to distribute funds through a combination of HCD- administered homeownership programs. These programs are:
• CalHome Program (CalHome) supports Homeownership programs aimed at lower and very low-income households, and in the case of a disaster, households at or below moderate income, and operated by private nonprofit and local government agencies, to increase homeownership, encourage neighborhood revitalization and sustainable development, and maximize use of existing homes.
​
• Joe Serna, Jr. Farmworker Housing Grant Program (FWHG or Serna) supports development projects involving multiple home ownership units, including single-family subdivisions, for lower-income agricultural employees and their families, and programs that assist lower-income agricultural employees and their families to become or remain homeowners. This Homeownership Super NOFA announces funding availability for two programs that in the past would have been announced separately. Consistent with the purposes of AB 434, defined below, funding for these two programs is being made available at the same time, and both programs are being administered consistent with CalHome.
