Exhibit 2-1 Place-based and Mobility Strategies

Place-Based Strategies: Investments to substantially improve physical and economic development in racially or ethnically concentrated low income neighborhoods to revitalize the area.

Mobility Strategies: Investments that promote integration by giving residents of segregated areas or R/ECAPs the opportunity to move to areas with greater access to opportunity.

These types of strategies may include: Building rehabilitation as a part of a concerted community revitalization effort New construction of mixed income housing designed to integrate R/ECAPs Commercial redevelopment to attract jobs, access to financial services, grocery stores, and other businesses Government interagency coordination to address multiple needs including housing, schools, criminal justice, transit, access to health care, etc., to reduce disparities in access to opportunity in segregated areas based on race, national origin, disability, familial status, or other protected characteristics

These types of strategies may include: Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher strategies, including mobility counseling, increased landlord participation, exception rents, regional coordination, etc., that enable residents to locate in areas of opportunity Increasing the stock of scattered site affordable housing in integrated areas and areas of opportunity Increasing the availability of affordable housing, including mixed- income housing, in areas of opportunity, such as through targeted siting, new construction, and the removal of existing regulatory barriers Increasing access for individuals with protected characteristics to existing affordable housing in higher opportunity areas
