Section 3

The City of Detroit Section 3 Program fosters local and neighborhood economic development, and individual self-sufficiency through opportunities to provide employment and job training to low- and very low-income persons (Section 3 Workers) and contracting opportunities to businesses that provide economic opportunities to low- and very low-income persons (Section 3 Business Concern) in connection with Section 3 covered projects and activities. Each Section 3 covered project and activity develops a Section 3 Plan to acknowledge and actively seek to achieve the benchmarks set by HUD. The goal is to have at least 25% of the total number of labor hours worked on a Section 3 project performed by Section 3 Workers and at least 5% of the total number of labor hours worked on by Targeted Section 3 Workers. The Section 3 Program Office works closely to ensure the Housing Implementation Entity (HIE) is meeting Section 3 goals, and monitors for compliance.
