Public Private Partnership
Community Facilities Programs

Community Facilities has taken a leadership role in facilitating Public Private Partnerships (P3) to better serve rural communities
The initiative was so successful in FY12 that the initiative was rolled into the White House’s Domestic Policy Council’s “We Can’t Wait” Initiative.
P3 has bought together critical financial, project development and technical expertise, resources and innovation to large complex community infrastructure projects
The initiative has also spurred strong participation from our private sector lending partners to supplement CF Financing
Public Private Partnership Initiative
20
From FY2012 to 2015, CF invested in 416 Public Private Partnership community infrastructure projects across rural America in 49 states.
CF leveraged over $2.7 billion in CF direct loan funds, with $1.4 billion from institutional investors and the capital credit markets
CF investments are projected to create or save 97,474 quality paying jobs.
