May 2016 This project has been financed in part with funds provided by the State of Minnesota from the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund through the Minnesota Historical Society. Saint Paul African American Historic and Cultural Context ABSTRACT Saint Paul’s African American community is long established—rooted, yet dynamic. From their beginnings, Blacks in Minnesota have had tremendous impact on the state’s economy, culture, and political development. Although there has been an African American presence in Saint Paul for more than 150 years, adequate research has not been completed to account for and protect sites with significance to the community. One of the objectives outlined in the City of Saint Paul’s 2009 Historic Preservation Plan is the development of historic contexts “for the most threatened resource types and areas,” including immigrant and ethnic communities (City of Saint Paul 2009:12). The primary objective for development of this Saint Paul African American Historic and Cultural Context Project (Context Study) was to lay a solid foundation for identification of key sites of historic significance and advancing preservation of these sites and the community’s stories.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Brian Matt October 11, 2019 804-343-5520, (c) 804-652-8341 [email protected] VHDA Receives HUD Funds to Support Housing Counseling and Education RICHMOND, Va. – The Virginia Housing Development Authority recently received a grant for more than $1.1 million from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to help Virginians make more informed housing choices, keep their current homes, or receive assistance to help them avoid foreclosure. “This year’s grant will help 29 of Virginia’s HUD-approved housing counseling agencies provide tools to current and prospective homeowners and renters so that they can make responsible choices to address their housing needs in light of their financial situations,” said Kelly Gill-Gordon, VHDA Director of Grant Programs and Initiatives. “Agencies receiving these grant funds will provide services to address a full range of housing counseling needs, including assisting homebuyers in evaluating their readiness for a home purchase and navigating the homebuying process.” These housing counseling organizations also help households find affordable rental housing, offer financial literacy training to individuals and families, and provide foreclosure prevention counseling to help homeowners facing delinquency or default to understand their options for avoiding foreclosure. In addition, these organizations assist homeless persons in finding transitional housing and help seniors determine whether a reverse mortgage makes sense for them. VHDA’s grant recipients will provide counseling to individuals and families within designated Opportunity Zones, which aim to stimulate long-term investments in low-income communities by offering significant capital gains tax relief to those who invest in these distressed areas.
