NEIGHBORHOOD STABILIZATION PROGRAM The Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) was established for the purpose of stabilizing communities that have suffered from foreclosures and abandonment. Under NSP1, HUD allocated $3.92 billion on a formula basis to 309 grantees including 55 states and territories and 254 selected local governments. The program was designed to stabilize communities across America hardest hit by foreclosures. Grant agreements for these funds have already been signed. Under NSP2, HUD allocated $1.93 billion on a competitive basis to states, local governments, and non profit organizations. The program objectives and eligible uses did not change under the Recovery Act, but the allocation process and some regulations on the funds have changed. The deadline to apply for NSP2 funding is July 17, 2009. The Challenge of Foreclosed Properties: An Analysis of State and Local Plans to Use the Neighborhood Stabilization Program Under the Neighborhood Stabilization Program, 306 state and local governments provided action plans detailing how they would use their funds to confront the foreclosure crisis and stabilize communities. This report summarizes those plans and highlights promising approaches. It is based on a review and analysis of 87 of the NSP action plans, including 22 states, 24 counties and 41 cities, which together comprise 58 percent of the total NSP national allocation.
