“Housing and Urban Development secretary Alphonso Jackson announced $6 million in competitive grants to 10 Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSI) to help revitalize low-income neighborhoods near their campuses and bring new opportunities to students and working families living there. The grants, administered by HUD’s office of University Partnerships, range from $527,000 to $600,000.

“These grants are investments in both people and places,” said Jackson. “Not only will these funds help improve neighborhoods but they will help build the next generation of great Americans who will go forth to create new jobs and economic opportunities in their communities.”
