Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP)

Overview

The Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) was established for the purpose of providing emergency assistance to stabilize communities with high rates of abandoned and foreclosed homes, and to assist households whose annual incomes are up to 120 percent of the area median income (AMI).

The U.S. Congress appropriated three rounds of NSP funding. Congress has not allocated any additional funds to NSP since the third round of funding, and most grantees are in the process of completing activities and closing out their grants.

For more information on the Neighborhood Stabilization Program and eligible activities visit the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development NSP Basics web page.
