Please note that this solicitation focuses on promoting the expansion of NYS RAs and as such, RAs in the field of Construction are not eligible for funding under this RFA unless the trade is to be used for the upkeep and maintenance of a facility owned by the business entity employing the apprentice, such as plant maintenance trades.

The City of Provo and Utah Valley HOME Consortium are offering $1,759,085.00 in HOME Investment Partnership – American Rescue Plan (HOME-ARP) funding. This grant program is specifically designed for the acquisition and development of non-congregate shelters (NCS). While the specific foundation's mission alignment and strategic priorities are not detailed, the program's focus on providing safe housing aligns with broader community welfare and housing stability goals often supported by philanthropic foundations and governmental initiatives. The grant aims to address the critical need for secure, non-congregate housing for vulnerable populations. The primary target beneficiaries of this grant are individuals and families who are fleeing, or attempting to flee, domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking, or human trafficking. This includes individuals as defined by the Department of Housing and Urban Development 24 CFR 5.2003. The impact goal is to provide immediate and safe shelter for these highly vulnerable individuals, offering them a secure environment as they escape dangerous situations. The emphasis on non-congregate shelters ensures a private and safer alternative to traditional shelters, which is particularly crucial for victims of violence. The priorities and focuses of this grant include the acquisition of land and construction of new non-congregate shelters, as well as the acquisition and/or rehabilitation of existing structures such as motels, hotels, or other facilities to be converted into NCS units. It is explicitly stated that no funds may be used for the operational costs of these shelters, emphasizing capital investment in creating new housing resources. This focus ensures that the grant directly contributes to increasing the physical infrastructure available to support the target population. Expected outcomes include an increase in the availability of safe, private, and secure non-congregate housing options within the Utah Valley HOME Consortium boundaries, which encompass Provo City and Utah County (excluding Eagle Mountain, Alpine, and Fairfield). Measurable results would be the number of new NCS units created or existing structures converted, and by extension, the number of individuals and families from the qualifying population who can be safely housed. The theory of change implicit in this grant is that by providing dedicated, non-congregate shelter, the program will empower victims to escape violence and trafficking, offering them a crucial first step towards long-term safety and recovery. Eligible applicants for this funding include nonprofit, governmental, and/or quasi-governmental agencies, housing authorities, and for-profit entities. These entities must serve the defined Qualifying Population within the specified geographic boundaries. The grant deadline is May 20, 2024. While the "Size of the Grant" is listed as "Not Available" in one section, the total funding available is clearly stated as $1,759,085.00, indicating the overall investment. The "Grant Duration" is also "Not Mentioned," suggesting that the focus is on the completion of the acquisition and development projects rather than ongoing operational support.

The County of Maui's Green Grants program offers approximately $1.7 million in funding to support projects promoting sustainability. Managed by the Department of Environmental Management’s Environmental Protection & Sustainability Division (EP&S), the program aims to advance critical initiatives in environmental protection, restoration, and sustainable development across Maui County. This aligns with the broader mission of fostering a more resilient and environmentally conscious community. The grants target a wide range of beneficiaries, including individuals, non-profit organizations, and for-profit businesses. The program particularly encourages projects led by, or with a focus on, women, youth, and traditional native Hawaiian practices and approaches. The overall impact goal is to enhance environmental protection, restore wetlands, promote renewable energy, encourage green building, and facilitate the acquisition of essential equipment for sustainability initiatives, ultimately contributing to a more sustainable Maui County. The Green Grants program prioritizes several key areas through its distinct funding streams. These include the Environmental Protection Grant, which supports invasive species management, environmental restoration, conservation, and sustainability (with a specific allocation for Waikapū community beautification). The Wetlands Restoration Grant focuses on organizations dedicated to wetland restoration. The Renewable Energy Grant supports initiatives promoting renewable energy and energy efficiency. The Green Building and Resilient Housing Grant encourages sustainable building practices, with a portion designated for Living Building Challenge participants. Finally, the Equipment Purchase Grant assists in acquiring necessary equipment for all sustainability and environmental initiatives. Expected outcomes include tangible improvements in environmental health, increased adoption of renewable energy, more sustainable building practices, and enhanced capacity for environmental initiatives through equipment acquisition. For instance, the Wetlands Restoration Grant aims to advance critical restoration efforts, while the Renewable Energy Grant seeks to enhance energy efficiency. The Green Building and Resilient Housing Grant promotes sustainable design and construction. Measurable results would include the number of restored wetlands, reduction in invasive species, new renewable energy installations, and the implementation of green building projects. The project period for grants is a full year, with options to align with either the Fiscal Year (July 1, 2024–June 30, 2025) or Calendar Year (January 1, 2025–December 31, 2025) in 2025.

The City of Shreveport, through its Department of Community Development, has announced a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for Affordable Rental Housing Proposals. This initiative is primarily funded by the HOME Investment Partnerships Program American Rescue Plan (HOME ARP). The core mission of this grant program is to address the critical need for affordable housing within the community by soliciting proposals from experienced agencies dedicated to developing and managing such properties. This aligns with a broader strategic priority to enhance housing stability and accessibility for vulnerable populations. The primary beneficiaries of this program are individuals and families from specific qualifying populations. These include people experiencing homelessness, those at risk of homelessness, individuals fleeing or attempting to flee domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking, or human trafficking, and other populations where supportive services would prevent homelessness or serve those with the greatest risk of housing instability. The impact goal is to provide safe, stable, and affordable rental housing, thereby reducing homelessness and housing insecurity for these vulnerable groups. The program's priorities and focuses revolve around the production or preservation of affordable housing through new construction, rehabilitation, and property acquisition, including vacant land, specifically for HOME-ARP rental housing projects. These projects must commit to providing affordable rental housing for a minimum of 15 years. The City of Shreveport aims to fund up to three qualified entities that demonstrate extensive experience in affordable housing development, non-congregate or transitional housing operations, supportive service programs, and federal policy compliance. Expected outcomes include an increase in the number of available affordable rental housing units in Shreveport, directly benefiting the identified qualifying populations. Measurable results will likely include the number of new units constructed or rehabilitated, the number of individuals and families housed, and the duration of their housing stability. The City's strategic priority is to leverage federal funding to create a sustainable impact on housing affordability, with a theory of change that posits that by investing in experienced developers to create and preserve affordable housing, they can directly mitigate the effects of housing instability and homelessness in the community.
