Programs

Indiana’s Hardest Hit Fund (HHF) provides mortgage payment assistance up to $30,000 to qualifying applicants, and foreclosure prevention counseling to any Indiana homeowner who needs it—absolutely free. Funded by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, Indiana’s HHF is a statewide program that assists Indiana homeowners who are at risk of mortgage delinquency and foreclosure. Learn more.

The IFPN was developed by a coalition of community organizations, housing-related agencies, government agencies, lenders and banks, to assist Indiana homeowners who are struggling with—or who are at risk of—mortgage delinquency and foreclosure.

Free Financial Counseling

We provide free and confidential foreclosure prevention counseling to any Indiana homeowner who needs it.

Our IFPN counselors help homeowners create a budget to be able to afford their mortgage payments, if possible. Housing counselors also help homeowners apply for a loan modification to make their mortgage payments affordable.

Blight Elimination Program

The Blight Elimination Program was designed to allow local municipalities to address blighted, vacant and abandoned homes in Indiana. The program demolishes blighted and abandoned homes that are beyond repair. The goal is to stabilize Indiana neighborhoods by offering a variety of end uses for newly cleared properties, including green space and redevelopment. The Blight Elimination was permanently closed to new applicants as of May 2018.
