A CHDO is a private nonprofit, community-based organization that has staff with the capacity to develop affordable housing for the community it serves. In order to qualify for designation as a CHDO, the organization must meet certain requirements pertaining to their legal status, organizational structure, and capacity and experience.
In order to count towards the 15 percent set-aside, a CHDO must act as the owner, developer, or sponsor of a project that is an eligible set-aside activity. These eligible set-aside activities include: the acquisition and/or rehabilitation of rental housing; new construction of rental housing; acquisition and/or rehabilitation of homebuyer properties; new construction of homebuyer properties; and direct financial assistance to purchasers of HOME-assisted housing that has been developed with HOME funds by the CHDO.

As a paper sculptor, I am delighted, that in my small way, my environmentally conscious artistry is diversifying the world of fine art and giving me and hopefully others, the inspiration to enter THE zone that creativity provides.
I strive to show others that we should all love ourselves, love each other and live life without judgment. My artwork mirrors these feelings. My main focus is to paint females and express the importance of every woman.
We live in a connected universe. Let’s create a new story for ourselves. Let’s connect the dots between the art and the science of being alive.
