This expansion will enable Our House to serve an additional 250 low-income adults and children daily. <br><br>The 27,300 square foot expansion is expected to open in the fall of 2023 and is part of the non-profit\u2019s $16 million development plan for its 7 acre campus. <br><br>The NMTC investment will result in a $2 million net benefit for Our House in support of this expansion plan. <br><br>This is the first expansion of Our House\u2019s housing capacity in over 14 years and will enable Our House to expand childhood programing, which has a waiting list of 200+ children and expand its mental health services by 50%. <br><br>The project will create 43 permanent full-time jobs over the next few years. <br><br>The new facility qualified for the federal NMTC program because it is in a highly distressed census tract with a 26.50% poverty rate (over 2.3 times the national rate), an unemployment rate of 14.3% (1.72 times national average) and area median income that is 48.79% of the median family income. <br><br>\u201cThe $10 million tax credit allocation from Heartland Renaissance Fund will enable Our House to address the growing need for our services in central Arkansas,\u201d said Ben Goodwin, executive director of Our House. \u201cOur House has seen total volume served increase by 83% in just two years, to more than 600 people per day served. Our board and staff have worked together to develop a solid plan for expanding to meet this need, and the NMTC investment is playing a huge role in making our expansion plan a reality.\u201d <br><br>NMTC financing is provided by Little Rock based Arkansas Capital Corporation, which has invested $375 million of NMTC allocation supporting over 40 projects throughout the states of Arkansas, Mississippi, Missouri and Oklahoma. <br><br>\u201cACC is excited to be a financing partner supporting the mission of Our House,\u201d said Arkansas Capital Corporation CEO Sam Walls. \u201cOur House is an important asset for the communities\u2019 efforts to address homelessness, as well as connecting formerly incarcerated people with the workforce and help them navigate the legal system.\u201d <br><br>Heartland Renaissance Fund is the sole community development entity (CDE) for the project. First Horizon served as the tax credit investor, providing $3,159,000 in tax credit equity. <br><br>\u201cFirst Horizon is excited to be involved in the Our House transaction as it provides much-needed housing support for the homeless community in central Arkansas. At First Horizon, we believe that our company is only as successful as the communities in which we operate, so it is imperative that we help strengthen our communities through strategic partnerships and investments,\u201d said David Shindler, executive vice president for First Horizon Bank. <br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>About the U.S. Treasury Department\u2019s New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) Program<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">New Markets Tax Credits (NMTCs) were established by Congress in 2000 to stimulate investment and economic growth in designated low-income communities.
