Welcome Home Ohio Program

Jefferson County Land Bank has been Awarded $660,556.00
to Help Improve Access to Housing Across Ohio

The funding is part of the second round of the Welcome Home Ohio program, and completes the awards for grant applications received for state fiscal year 2024. The award will support the Jefferson County Land Bank and Jefferson Housing Development Corporation with the construction of three new houses in Jefferson County.

Two of the three houses will be built in the North End of Steubenville to compliment the City of Steubenville and JMHA’s HUD Choice Neighborhood Planning Grant. The third house will be built in the City of Toronto. The houses will be available for purchase by a low-moderate income family in Jefferson County. These individuals will be given the opportunity to realize the American Dream of Homeownership through the Welcome Home Ohio program. The construction of these houses is a step forward towards the revitalization of neighborhoods in Jefferson County.
