Opioid Use Disorder Supportive Housing Capital Program
Program Overview
The Opioid Use Disorder Supportive Housing Capital Program provides capital funding to projects that create new supportive housing for households with a member who has Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) and other co-occurring disorders.
Up to $5,700,000 is available in project funding per year through fiscal year 2027.
- Maximum of $2,000,000 per project
- Minimum of $150,000 per project
Funding is provided in the form of 0% interest, deferred payment loans with a 30-year term and affordability period.
Projects consisting of new construction, acquisition and rehabilitation, or adaptive reuse are eligible.
Eligible housing models include Permanent Supportive Housing units and Recovery Residences which will be certified by the state-designated certifying body for recovery residences.
Funding for the program is provided by the New Hampshire Opioid Abatement Trust Fund and administered by the NH Department of Health and Human Services.
If you are a service provider with no prior development experience, you may be required to contract with a development consultant to be eligible for funding. Please see the Supportive Housing Consultant list.
