Idaho Workforce Housing Fund

In 2022, the Idaho Legislature created the Idaho Workforce Housing Fund (IWHF) to utilize the funds appropriated to states through the federal American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) of 2021. As administrator of this funding, Idaho Housing and Finance Association was tasked to develop an administrative plan and set the process in motion to invest the funding in housing developments throughout the state. The aim is to leverage these dollars with other governmental and private funding to have the greatest impact possible in Idaho’s extremely tight housing markets.
