In addition, the Housing Authority manages the Housing Trust Fund, which was established to provide funding to agencies with experience in the design and administration of innovative programs that address local housing needs.

Housing Authority meetings are held on the second Wednesday of the month at noon at 9 E. Vermijo Ave., Colorado Springs, CO. Special meetings may be scheduled as necessary.
