Campus Housing Affordability Act of 2024
This bill removes a prohibition that previously blocked federal housing assistance for college students. It creates a new waiver allowing housing authorities to provide tenant-based housing assistance to students in foster care or court-emancipated minors living in on-campus housing at eligible colleges. The assistance won't count as income for financial aid, work-study programs, or child support calculations, directly supporting vulnerable students facing housing costs.
