The funds are critical to completing this project and reducing homelessness in Houston. Residential capacity will be doubled for young adults and households with children under 5 years old.

AHP grants assist FHLB Dallas members in financing the purchase, construction and rehabilitation of owner-occupied, rental or transitional housing and housing for homeless individuals. The funds must be used to benefit households with incomes at or below 80 percent of the median income for the area.

In 2024, FHLB Dallas awarded nearly $100 million in AHP and AHP homeownership grants for 4,833 units that support housing affordability in its District, which includes Texas.

“Projects like this can be transformative to communities in many ways,” said Greg Hettrick, senior vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas. “We applaud Texas Capital for leveraging FHLB Dallas AHP grants to invest in its communities.”
