How we help communities thrive.
OUR PROGRAMS = OUR HOW
By integrating comprehensive support services, community engagement, strategic placemaking and partnerships, our programs create pathways for vibrant, resilient neighborhoods and economic growth throughout the region- thanks to our decades long relationship with the City of Cincinnati, working hand in hand with the City’s Department of Community and Economic Development, and our local funding partners.
QUICK STRIKE FUND
The Quick Strike Fund provides financial assistance for real property acquisition and acquisition related costs in Cincinnati neighborhoods. The program is designed and managed by HomeBase Cincinnati. The City of Cincinnati provided the initial funding for the program in December 2023.
OPERATIONAL SUPPORT GRANT
The Operational Support Grant (OSG) is a competitive funding source made available through the City of Cincinnati Department of Community and Economic Development to provide Community Development Corporations (CDCs) with operating and project support.
DPA PROGRAM
The Down Payment Assistance (DPA) program was created in collaboration with the Greater Cincinnati Foundation to distribute approximately $100,000 of funding to support Community Development Corporations (CDCs) with their property sales.
VOLUNTARY TAX INCENTIVE CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT
The purpose of VTICA funds is to improve the quality of life and encourage intra-community organization collaboration. Under the current ordinance, the VTICA funding must be used within the neighborhood for which the funding was collected and cannot be combined and shared with other neighborhoods.
