Affordable Housing and Sustainable
Communities Program (AHSC)

Affordable housing that supports walking,
biking and transit now has a source of funding to get across the finish line!!!

The State’s Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities (AHSC) program provides affordable housing loans and capital grants for the creation of affordable housing in conjunction with transportation improvements. The goal of AHSC is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) and vehicle miles traveled (VMT), and increase accessibility of housing, employment centers and key destinations through low-carbon transportation options such as walking, biking, and transit. The County of Los Angeles is currently seeking developers to partner for Round  AHSC applications due in 2025. Contact us today!

Technical Assistance from the County of Los Angeles

Since 2018, the County has partnered with developers, transit agencies, and the City of Los Angeles to submit AHSC applications. Through these collaborative efforts, the Strategic Growth Council (SCG) has awarded over $165 million in AHSC funding to develop 921 affordable housing units at eight project sites; and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by increasing public transit ridership and creating dozens of miles of bicycle and pedestrian pathways.

With the infrastructure in place to support AHSC applications, the County is gearing up for Round 9. The application deadline is expected in March, so the time to start is now!
