The Choice Neighborhoods program focuses on the redevelopment of severely distressed public housing and/or HUD-assisted housing through a comprehensive approach to neighborhood transformation. Local leaders, residents, and other stakeholders, such as public housing agencies, cities, Tribal entities, schools, police, business owners, nonprofits, and private developers, come together to create and implement a comprehensive neighborhood plan for redeveloping severely distressed HUD housing and revitalizing the surrounding neighborhood. Choice Neighborhoods funds are used to leverage significant public and private dollars to support locally driven strategies that address struggling neighborhoods. To this end, the Choice Neighborhoods program is focused on three core goals:
- Housing
- Replace severely distressed public and HUD-assisted housing with high quality mixed income housing that is responsive to the needs of residents and appropriate for the surrounding neighborhood;
- People
- Improve outcomes of households living in the target housing related to income and employment, health, and education; and

- Create the conditions necessary to attract long-term public and private reinvestment in distressed neighborhoods which will promote economic development and result in increased/improved amenities, services, and job opportunities for residents.
