Strategic Growth Council Factory Built Housing Pilot Program Round 3 Catalyst Grant
Purpose
The Factory-Built Housing (FBH) Program is designed to support regional strategies that use factory-built housing to expand the supply of affordable, high-quality homes across California. The goal is to create solutions that can be scaled and replicated to move beyond one-off development projects to broader, long-term impact.
Description
The FBH Program will provide Catalyst Grants of up to $500,000 over a two-year term to help Grantees launch or advance early-stage efforts that build regional knowledge, capacity, networks, and stakeholder support for the production and deployment of factory-built housing in California.
Catalyst projects are expected to result in increased regional capacity, collaboration, and stakeholder support for factory-built housing as a viable affordable housing strategy. Projects should also produce or promote innovative, scalable, and/or replicable strategies for removing barriers to factory-built housing expansion and integrating factory-built housing into local and regional housing plans.
