Speaking at the housing improvement agencies conference in Birmingham this week, junior housing minister Tony McNulty said the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister would invest an extra £5.2m over three years on top of the £8.5m it has already allocated.
As well as ODPM funding, the improvement agencies already receive £9.5m separately from the Department of Health.
Health minister Jacqui Smith said the government would also create a grant to expand community-based social care services.
