President Obama established the Hardest Hit Fund

Hardest Hit Fund

President Obama established the Hardest Hit Fund SM in February 2010 to provide targeted aid to families in states hit hard by the economic and housing market downturn. Each state housing agency gathered public input to implement programs designed to meet the distinct challenges struggling homeowners in their state are facing. States were chosen either because they are struggling with unemployment rates at or above the national average or steep home price declines greater than 20 percent since the housing market downturn.


Each state’s plan is included below. For more information about a specific plan, please contact the state housing agency directly.
