Grants
The Coalition is committed to investing in home repair programs. We provide funding for sustainability and expansion of high-quality services in the field, increasing program effectiveness and impact.
Coalition Members receive grants totaling 5x their membership dues, on average. While membership is required for many grants, it's not required for all grants. The grants portal will provide specific eligibility for open funding opportunities.
