HASCO’s Update on the Federal Funding Freeze

On January 27, 2025, the US Office of Management and Budget, on behalf of President Trump, instructed all federal departments to temporarily pause all activities related to the obligation and disbursement of federal financial assistance. On January 29, 2025, this action was rescinded.

Based on this information, HASCO believes that it will receive funds to pay rent for households receiving voucher assistance from HASCO and to fund our subsidized housing programs.

HASCO does not expect to receive funds from HUD for voucher housing assistance payments until Monday, February 3. Due to this timing, rent payments will be sent to landlords on Tuesday, February 4.

HASCO continues to monitor the situation and will work with our federal partners regarding funding we receive to provide programs to our community. HASCO will provide updates on our website if things change.
