CORNING, N.Y. (WETM) – Arbor Housing and Development has received a $277,500 NeighborWorks America grant to bring local solutions to affordable housing challenges.

The funding is part of nearly $5.4 million worth of grants awarded to 16 community development organizations across New York.

“Especially during a global pandemic that has been compounded by a historically cold winter, access to affordable housing is essential for the health of our families and the economic strength of our communities,” said Senator Charles Schumer. “This funding, from NeighborWorks America, will strengthen neighborhoods, remove blight, and provide safe, quality housing for families across Upstate New York. I will continue to fight for and deliver funds to New York that help provide families and children with safe communities and affordable housing options.”
