Neighborhood Stabilization Program
Congress established the Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) for the purpose of stabilizing communities that have suffered from foreclosures and abandonment. Maricopa County utilized NSP funds to help the hardest hit areas of the Urban County service area with foreclosed and abandoned properties. In 2009, Maricopa County received $9.9 million in NSP funds authorized under the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008. In 2010, the County received $4.2 million in NSP 3 funds authorized under The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.
