Capital Development activities include the purchase, development, rehabilitation, lease and repair
of housing facilities that will be dedicated in part or in full to eligible HOPWA households.
HOPWA resources are often combined with other HUD, federal, state, and local resources to fund a project.
Traditionally, the use of HOPWA for capital development has been for the creation of stand-alone facility-based housing
specifically for persons living with HIV/AIDS. Recently, however, grantees have been using HOPWA
to develop units dedicated for persons living with HIV/AIDS as part of larger "mainstream" affordable housing developments.
