Housing partners across the state are providing hope to people facing homelessness. Help us spread the word.

As part of the HOME-ARP Program, Oklahoma Housing Finance Agency - OHFA works with organizations across the state to offer up to 24 months of rental assistance to vulnerable residents. Recipients of HOME-ARP TBRA vouchers are referred by one of these organizations. Approximately $5 million has been allocated for this purpose.

The State of Oklahoma and OHFA received a one-time allocation of HOME Investment Partnerships American Rescue Plan (HOME-ARP) funds to provide housing and supportive services to at-risk individuals, including those who are experiencing homelessness. This program also serves individuals at risk of homelessness who are fleeing, or attempting to flee, domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking, or human trafficking.

Contact one of the organizations listed here to ask if you qualify: https://www.ohfa.org/home-arp/

Effective November 1, 2025, the Oklahoma Housing Finance Agency - OHFA will begin implementing the National Standards for the Physical Inspection of Real Estate (NSPIRE) as required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

Until now, our agency has followed Housing Quality Standards (HQS) to inspect rental units. NSPIRE establishes a modernized approach for defining and assessing housing quality.

NSPIRE strengthens HUD's inspection standards and oversight by aligning all HUD-assisted housing programs under one consistent inspection module. The goal is to ensure that every assisted household resides in a safe, operable, and hazard-free home where both interior and exterior components are maintained in good condition.

More information on NSPIRE and related HUD notices can be found on the HUD website: https://bit.ly/4q9neEb

As we move forward with this change, OHFA is dedicated to assisting all landlords and participants in understanding and applying the new NSPIRE standards.

Every ♥ Beat ♥ Counts!

Did you know that heart disease is the leading cause of death in Oklahoma, and for women nationwide? It's a stark reality, but you have the power to change it. Your heart, and those who love you, are counting on you.

You don’t need a complete lifestyle overhaul to make a real difference. Small, consistent choices add up to big heart health wins. Imagine swapping that sugary drink for ice cold water, taking a brisk walk during your lunch break, or simply understanding your blood pressure numbers. You can do this!

Empower Yourself with Knowledge: Know Your Numbers, Know Your Risks.

Know Your Numbers 🔢:
Get regular checkups. Early detection is key. ✅
Understand your blood pressure. Normal is 120/80 mmHg or lower. Hypertension, or high blood pressure, starts at 130-139/80-89 mmHg.

Consider a Self-Measured Blood Pressure (SMBP) monitoring program. Talk to your doctor, pharmacist, or insurance provider about options near you. Take control of your health!
Cholesterol matters: LDL ("bad") cholesterol should be low, and HDL ("good") cholesterol should be high. Your healthcare provider can test your levels. An active, healthy lifestyle can help manage cholesterol.
Know Your Risk Factors 📈:
Family history, smoking, diabetes, and obesity all increase your risk of heart disease.
Knowing your personal risk factors allows you to make informed decisions.

Every Step Counts ♥: Move More, Live More.

Physical Activity: Every step, kick, move, or swing matters!
Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity per week, plus two days of muscle-strengthening exercises.
Find activities you enjoy and make them a regular part of your routine.

Healthy Choices:
Make smart food choices. Incorporate more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains into your diet.
Limit processed foods, sugary drinks, and excessive salt intake.
If you smoke, quit. There are resources available to help.

For Women:
Heart disease presents differently in women. Be aware of symptoms like shortness of breath, nausea, and back or jaw pain.
Prioritize self-care and stress management.
