Congressman Van Drew Announces $12.4 Million for the Atlantic City Housing Authority

Washington, DC - Today, Congressman Van Drew announced that the Atlantic City Housing Authority (ACHA) will receive $12.4 million in federal funding through the Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Operating Shortfall program. "The people living in these buildings have been through a lot, and they deserve stability," said Congressman Van Drew. "This funding helps set the ACHA up for success, so the residents have safe, reliable housing. It will help cover basic operating costs to allow the housing authority to continue serving residents and stabilize day-to-day operations. I fought for years to get the federal government to step in and take control of the ACHA, and we got that done. Now we are continuing to build on that progress and make sure things are finally moving in the right direction."
