Neighborhood Stabilization Program

The Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 provided the City of Milwaukee with $9.2 million in federal funding for the Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) to address foreclosed properties in Milwaukee neighborhoods impacted by the foreclosure crisis. With input from the Milwaukee Foreclosure Partnership Initiative, the Common Council Special Joint Committee on the Redevelopment of Abandoned and Foreclosed Homes, and the community, the City prepared a plan to guide efforts to utilize the $9.2 million in NSP Funding.

The Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) Plan and related activities for the City of Milwaukee are outlined below.
