The City of Tampa's Housing and Community Development Division (HCD) is part of the Growth Management and Development Services Department. 

HCD Mission

To maintain the City's existing housing stock while providing new home ownership opportunities for City of Tampa citizens.

The Housing and Community Development Division of the Department of Growth Management and Development Services supports the City of Tampa's Mission and Vision by administering a variety of housing programs to assist eligible low and moderate-income residents purchase, rent or rehabilitate existing housing units located in the City. The housing programs currently managed by this division include both Federally and State funded programs. The State Housing Initiatives Program (SHIP), Home Investment Partnership Program (HOME), and the Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG), offer loans and/or grants to prospective homebuyers, homeowners or developers for the purchase, rehabilitation or construction of new affordable housing units.

In addition to housing, HCD participates in and supports many social services and economic development projects that continue to have a positive impact on our community.

In partnership with local non-profit organizations, lenders and private developers, the city invests its federal grant funds to redevelop older neighborhoods and Tampa's neediest communities.
