About housing grants for nonprofits

Housing grants for nonprofits fund the development, rehabilitation, and operation of housing for low-income, homeless, and vulnerable populations, along with related services. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) is the largest public funder, with programs spanning homeless assistance, affordable housing development, and capacity-building, supplemented by housing-focused intermediaries and foundations.

What housing grants are available for nonprofits?

Nonprofits can pursue funding for permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, affordable housing development, homeownership assistance, and housing-related services. HUD programs such as the Continuum of Care, HOME Investment Partnerships, and the Self-Help Homeownership Opportunity Program support different parts of this work, alongside state housing finance agencies and private funders.

Does HUD fund housing nonprofits?

Yes. HUD funds nonprofits both directly, through programs like the Continuum of Care and the Self-Help Homeownership Opportunity Program, and indirectly through HOME and Community Development Block Grant dollars that pass through states and local governments. Nonprofits can also access HUD capacity-building funds by affiliating with national intermediaries such as LISC, Enterprise, or NeighborWorks.

Who else funds housing nonprofits?

Beyond HUD, state and local housing finance agencies, the Federal Home Loan Banks' Affordable Housing Program, and national intermediaries like LISC, Enterprise Community Partners, and NeighborWorks America provide funding and technical assistance. Community foundations and corporate funders, particularly banks meeting community-reinvestment goals, also support housing work.
