The programs of the CDFI Fund play a vital role in expanding our capacity to create economic opportunities for members in CA-18 and CA-19. Support from the CDFI Fund through awards and investments has enabled us to expand our micro lending platform and affordable housing opportunities with support from FA, RRP, and ERP awards.
