Funds from the housing trust fund program may be used to provide tenant-based rental assistance, sponsor-based rental assistance, or project-based rental assistance and to pay security deposits, damage claims or fees, application fees, vacancy payments, utility connection fees, and other fees necessary to obtain owner participation or to prevent repeat episodes of homelessness.
Administrators of tenant-based rental assistance and sponsor-based rental assistance may receive administrative fees under the housing trust fund program according to part 4900.3767, subpart 6. Administrators of project-based rental assistance may not receive administrative fees under the housing trust fund program.

This median income may be adjusted for family size for families with five or more people.
